The Lumi is huge and works well for manga, especially considering the sad state of legally obtainable manga in the United States where everything requires proprietary Android apps, or if you want to do workbooks or something using the stylus. It’s surprisingly good, even for things you wouldn’t normally do an an ebook device. I’ve never used any of the smaller Boox devices so I can’t say whether it’s the same for all of them.
The Forma is a normal size so it’s much more portable.
Both of them have wifi and you can run your own software on them, but I think running your own software on Kobo devices is less well supported than running your own software on Boox devices.
I have a Kobo Forma and a Boox Lumi.
