    Bluetooth page turner is nice but at this point I have zero interest in a Kindle unless I can load KOReader on it. I might buy one of these if they go on a sale and leave it in a drawer until it's jailbroken. I love my PW5 (jailbroken) but I'd buy a Kobo if they had a 7" screen (Clara) since that's easier to get KOReader on.

    Just as I’m modding my 2018 Paperwhite to add buttons and a bluetooth remote.

    These look great! I still have a Kindle Voyage from 2015 that's going strong, though I do wish it had the warmer LED lights. It's nice to have some devices like this and my Fujifilm XT-30 that don't make me feel the constant need for upgrading.

      Weird how there is still no real successor for the Voyage. They somehow refuse to release a 6-inch device with warm light and a light sensor for auto brightness. And with the lack of immersion reading on e-ink devices, I don't think I want to buy another Kindle again.

    Amazon is a terrible company. Switched away from their Kindle and predatory business practices.

      Do you have a recommendation for an ebook?

        I've been super happy with my boox. Full android, so you can install the Kindle app if needed. But it can natively read just about every format.

        I sync books through Dropbox. Seamless as can be. (And no DRM or "leasing" nonsense)

        I switched to Kobo. Not that I’m a fan of Rakuten, but kobo so far remains open and modifiable should you want that

        I'm not the guy you asked, but I personally switched to Kobo.
