On equal viewing conditions (about 90% of my books look the same with AlReaderX as with any other reading program you can quote me) I personally prefer AlReaderX. But this is a personal preference, not a recommendation with pretensions of universal validity (for that we already have prominent members of this forum).
I agree on all points. The fact that Alreader X installs as a systems app makes it feel snappier on Onyx. I use full refresh on every page turn in all reading apps and Koreader is a bit slower with the refresh compared to Alreader X or Neoreader.

The one big feature from Koreader that I find lacking in Alreader X is that the former lets you open a dictionary upon long-pressing a word but selecting text if you long-press and drag your finger along the text. Alreader X interprets every long-press as a request for the dictionary.
