They are all over-sold.

Onyx Boox is the only one worth considering and you are better off with a dedicated eink or decent matt finish phone or tablet. You can install some things on a Kobo without a jailbreak. Not sure about Pocketbook.

Though some Kindles can be Jailbroken, they are best only bought if you want KU or Kindle exclusive bought books. Nook isn't available outside Barnes &Nobel home market, nor even the app!
Plenty are fine. Especially with tweaks. Reading based apps like Play Books, Kobo, Libby, etc. tend to work fine.

And there's no way to install Libby or Pressreader to read magazines or newspapers from the library on a Kobo or jailbroken Kindle.
