Thanks for the update. Now the table is much easier to navigate for me.
I noticed, though, that the permanent scrollbar and the symbols for scrolling like "<" or ">" only appear after allowing JavaScript from code.jquery.com. I haven't looked up how much JS code from code.jquery.com is implemented, but I wonder why you didn't include this code on your own domain comparisontabl.es.

Since the info under "CPU clock speed" is missing: The Viwoods AIPaper Reader has the Helio G99 / MT8781V/CA as CPU with 8 cores and 2x2.20 and 6x2.00 GHz. That's what the app Device Info HW says on my device, see the attached screenshot.

Edit:
The Reader also has a fingerprint scanner, although with firmware 1.1.0 one can set up a fingerprint only with wifi enabled. Quite strange, same goes for setting up a PIN as security measure. Though Viwoods told me they want to fix this in a future firmware so that it works without wifi/wlan.

You're welcome! Glad it helps!

And I'm using jQuery in quite a few scripts on my site. It's a very commonly used JavaScript library, and currently I'm using a CDN for it (loading it from jQuery.com) simply because it's easier than self-hosting it. Just haven't taken the time to set up self-hosting yet as I haven't seen this being an issue before.

So I guess Vivaldi, or the way you've set it up, is pretty strict about external scripts then?

Thanks for the additional info on the Viwoods AiPaper reader, just added it to the table!

It's the extensions I use to finetune which JavaScript I allow on a particular site. Well, now that I know all I have to do is remind myself to allow code.jquery.com on your side. Since I am not that old, I think I can manage that. :-)

Just wanted to drop in and let everyone know that I've just published a tablet comparison table! So you can now compare tablets using all of the same comparison tools that were already available for e-readers.

You can find it here: https://comparisontabl.es/tablets/

It currently has 264 tablets available to compare by a total of 19 brands. It's got every iPad ever released, the last 8/9 years of Samsung tablets, recent Lenovo tablets, all Amazon (Kindle) Fire tablets, TCL (Nxtpaper) tablets, Kobo Arc tablets, Nook tablets, and more.

I'll be adding more over time - let me know if you want to see anything added!

Note that the distinction I'm making between e-readers and tablets is basically the following: does the display itself emit light? If yes (LCD-LED, OLED); listed as a tablet. If no (E Ink, RLCD); listed as an e-reader.

The e-reader comparison table is also still kept up-to-date, and is now up to 315 e-readers. I've added new products such as the Xteink X3, PocketBook InkPad One, as well as the current catalog of two new brands (both Taiwanese): Hyread and Pubu.

If you have any feedback let me know!
