My old one got squished in moving. It was a Kobo Klara I got as a gift. Before, I had a refurbished kindle paperwhite 7th gen that I liked the UI of much more but didn’t like having an Amazon product.
Wondering what is out there now.
My main desiderata is that it has warm backlighting and is small. Would also like better .pdf reading than the Kobo that was basically non-doable.
I’ve been down that route and the battery and screen were in bad shape. The loading files via usb is actual fine with me. I keep hoping I’ll find something long lasting in the size of a paperback but I guess the demand is just not there.
huh that sucks. i got lucky and inherited one from a sibling that’s fine. i wanna say paperwhite 5 but idr
