Any Kobo after the three Kobo Touch versions (They don't have great screens compared to later models).

The stock Kobo firmware does allow crop PDFs now, but really on the Sage 8" is worth it for PDFs (the 10.3" models actually have less pixels).

I don't see any difference on the Libra or Libra2, but eink screens do vary in quality for the same model. I have both. Both are better than the Kindle PW5 for quality.
