FWIW PocketBook does not respect RTL page progression direction for manga.

It kinda doesn't matter on device because it does not support facing pages in landscape, but the mobile apps do, so the pages are on the wrong side, page turn gestures are not reversed, and spreads do not display correctly (if a spread is split into two images as they often are).

Otherwise my PB devices (Era and Inkpad Color 3) have blacks/contrast roughly equivalent of my Kindles. Black is never really that black on eInk screens except as your brain can interpret it as such. The slight differences between models is not likely to matter once you pick one and stop comparing it to other devices. IMO.

That said I consume most of my manga reading on Scribe because it does facing page/spreads in landscape more comfortably than smaller screens, and so I would recommend a 10" display. It's more 'immersive' and I like to see spreads as they would be in print, and not rotated and squashed to fit either.
