Yep.

That's also subjective.

I use them (the one I'm typing on now is 11 years old). For my purposes it is "perfectly good."

I'm currently reading on a Sony T3 (also 11 years old). It's the lightest 6" eReader that I own and I like the way it renders fonts. More "vertical" than a modern Kobo (not that I'm running down Kobos, they just render fonts differently).

Preferences are always subjective.
