I agree too big and heavy for an ebook, as was the Kindle DXG, reMarkable and Elipsa.

I read novels on the Sage (real reflowable ebooks). The Nxtpapers are only for stuff that doesn't work on a Sage (or Libra; I have Libra and Libra 2).
The Nxtpaper 40 is a phone and replaces my 4.7" P47L and 5" Sony PRS-350.

I can't understand why they discontinued the superior (if you only want mono) Libra 2.

I've now given away the reMarkable and Elipsa. No-one is interested in the Kindle DXG (too poor at 150 dpi, far too slow for PDFs and only basic old Mobi / KF7 ebooks).

I have the official covers for Nxtpaper 11 and Nxtpaper 14, otherwise they are too awkward to hold.
I'm off now to read on the Sage. I use the original Libra to read out loud as the buttons for page turn are 100% perfect and reliable.
