Pros & Cons
Pros
If you don't mind a 1 second page turn and the flash (inverse/redraw), this is still a great device for large text. Keep the button key board at the bottom - love the tactile *.
For reading books, it beats my ipad pro on eye/reading comfort and travel connectivity. It is much more rugged and useful than other readers and even small tablets. E-ink technology is a lifesaver.

Highlights
Quality
The size, lack of glare, and reliability has made it one of the best purchases i have ever made for myself.
The ability to adjust font sizes and orientation adds to the versatility of the device.
It’s not a perfect machine, doesn’t have a frontlight, it’s slower and yes it’s older!
A single charge lasts for weeks, even with regular use.
Price

Some other companies like sony still make e-ink based readers with big screen and good performance.
