A Nxtpaper 14, or maybe the Nxtpaper 11 (not pro) as it has SD Card slot. I have both. Far superior for PDFs to my Kobo Sage or Elipsa, or reMarkable.

I read reflowable novels and PDF instruction books/manuals that are small enough on the Sage.

The Archive Org content, magasines, illustrated fixed layout novels etc need a big tablet and the NxtPaper 14 is 3:2 and the best thing I've ever had for PDFs except my 23″ 4K LG monitor, which isn't portable.

The Colour eink by Amazon or Kobo use 300 dpi mono panels with a 2 x 2 dot pattern for colour that isn't removable. Mostly Kaleido 3 on a Carta 1300, which is marginally better than Carta 1200. It's OK for comics that fit. It's much darker than regular eink, only pastel shades and poorer contrast.
