7" ereader with physical page turn buttons and an eink Carta 1300 screen

apastuszak · Yesterday, 10:10 PM

I've been doing some research on this and it seems I can't really get what I want without significant compromises.

The obvious choice would be to buy a Kobo Libra 3. But Kobo never released one and they're "all-in" on the Libra Color. As much as I want one, a this point i think their e-reader line with page-turn buttons and a black-and-white screen is dead.
I next looked at the PocketBook Era Lite. Meets all the requirements, but my research tells me the OS on is very slow compared to other e-readers.
The Boox Go 7 looks nice, but between Android and the page refresh technology, the battery life isn't where it should be for an e-reader.
The Boox Page is Eink Carta 1200, and I think it's been discontinued
Bigme 7" e-reader with page turn buttons still uses an Eink Carta 1100 display.

Is there another reader out there I should be looking at?
