I rather thought ottischwenk would recommend it.

It need a bright front light even in ambient light good enough to read mono eink, so little advantage in eyestrain over LCD with matte screen and brightness carefully adjusted.

The 300 dpi mono is a bit misleading. That's the 150 dpi color and using coloured sub pixel addressing.

I can afford a Color Boox, but I'm sure I'd find it pointless as I don't read comics. I have read comics & graphic novels occasionally on my €200 10″ Lenovo LCD tablet and because of size/reading duration compared to a text novel, not at all straining.

Both the embedded and text links work, even on Waterfox Classic, so you'll have to try outside work.

I do have the Boyue Likebook Mars 7.8″Android and a nice feature is being able to turn off the Google Framework (only a few apps need it on, Playstore and Google Play books etc). It's handy for the Irish Library Apps and Google PlayBooks etc, but even with KOReader, it's a poor experience compared to Sony, Kindle or Kobo. Better than the reMarkable.

I've now got a an LG 23.5″ UHD HDR 4K screen that's like coloured paper. Wonderful to read PDFs and graphic novels etc, though not very portable. No glare or reflection or flicker. Perfect colour temperature white. So I'll wait and buy a 10″ to 14″ tablet when one comes out with as good a screen as my LG. The new Amazon Fire was almost tempting but less than 100% Android compatible. I'd sooner have MS Surface Windows x86-64 than only have Amazon store.
