Eink devices are generally bad for web browsing. The best combination would be an eink device as a computer monitor. The next best thing (which I am in fact doing right now) is an eink device paired with a BT keyboard.

Naked Browser for Android uses many known keyboard shortcuts. There might be other browsers that might be good, best probably some browser that runs in a terminal emulator, if you can install those.

I know they are clunky, but I want to give it a try. Eventually I'd like a monitor, but I would also like a handheld device. I'm very interested in the Onyx or one of the other top ones. A BT keyboard makes sense!

Edit: I'm seriously thinking of going for the Boox Max2 since I could hold it or mount it as a monitor.

Check the wiki for AMOLED for the technology and then over on the left there is an entry that says: What links here. Tap this to see pages that reference this page included products that use this screen.
