I've had numerous 10" Android and also a big Win10 tablet like a Surface (worked better with Debian) and they are/were all abysmal compared to the reMarkable for PDFs, which is poorer than the Elipsa (same internal eink screen on version 1 & 2 of both makes). Both of those are rubbish for PDFs campared to the Nxtpaper 14.
Thank you for your practical tips. I personally trust you and your experience with PDFs. Yes, I only need to read PDFs, not novels. I still have a Pixel tablet with GrapheneOS down in the basement. I think I’ll try reading the PDF magazine on that device. Are there any recommendations for Open Source apps? I don’t have the Play Store on it. Thanks.
