Any approx 13″ Kaleido or Gallery based ereader will be lower resolution than a decent tablet and there will be LCD tablets with no eyestrain. My 23″ desktop 4K LG HDR LCD has no eyestrain, excessive blue, flicker or glare.
For me, having 4k resolution it is not that important. With a decent dpi and a fast refresh rate it is enough, and of course, the 60000 Gallery's colours

I have hope! This reminds me of when color eInk first appears and everyone said more than 100dpi was not possible, and then appeared 150dpi. I long to see Gallery 3 with a good refresh rate. Let's see if this 2024 they improve it!

I will take a closer look at those NXTPaper devices. Don't know much of them
