But overall, I have quite a problem with colored eReaders. I have always used book readers for reading books B&W, for book readers with a 6-inch display, I really don't understand the point of fitting a color display, why?
It seems more correct on displays with a size of 7.8, but in my case I could only try the previous Gen. of
Kaleido 2 Color display which had a very low resolution and as for reading books (black ink) reading was not very pleasant, due to poor contrast and dark background.
Unfortunately
Pocketbook ERA Color did not appeal to me, the device has a large enough screen for comfortably reading MANGA, but it is usually B&W. The price and quality for reading color comics convinced me of the TCL with the
Nxtpaper display.

in addition, the device costs a fraction of the price, it is faster, as is the installed application, the current android version, and the color presentation of the display is significantly better for my eyes than the faded colors of the Kaleido display, which usually has to be equally backlit most of the time.
That's why I was interested in the writing of the "
Galery 3" technology, which is a possible writing for static displays due to the long response where you drink your coffee before the page is turned, but I was interested in the quality and fidelity of color rendering, as I have never seen this technology with my own eyes.
PS: But since I bought the
Inkpad 4, I am very careful about protecting the front glass from Pocketbok, as in the case of the
BOOX Leaf2, where one version has a flush screen and the other (black) has an alignment layer, and the difference in contrast is really big.
(despite the fact that it is an identical E-INK screen)
The version of the Pocketbook ERA with a recessed screen without additional layers would IMHO be a very good choice and would make a very good book reader even despite the bad optimization of the OS, even in the case of the Kaleido version.
