Currently I have a Boox e-ink reader, but I learned that they don’t last that much and their post-sale support is the worst. I see that this device will fail in the next 6-12 months, what e-ink readers (that it is NOT A KINDLE) would you recommend? I’m interested on reading both .epub and whatever is the current kindle app format, along with PDFs, being able to add notes is not super critical.

recommendations?

    It isn’t always possible to mod/jailbreak new Kindles, they keep getting patched quickly OTA and the forced OTA updates are difficult to block.

    Kindle is also locked down heavily, at least eink tablets are Android devices that you can use any apps you want. Yea, they have their own cons but still better than Kindle if someone has specific use cases.
