I still have an old Kindle and it still gets months of battery life. I occasionally read comics so this may get me to upgrade.

    I’m super torn between not wanting more Amazon in my life and wanting a convenient way to binge a lot of comics and manga

          As another owner of the Kobo Libra Colour, I can recommend it for its excellent ergonomics and UI. Plus as a bonus, it has pen support!

        My Kobo Libra Color does it. I do sometimes need a bit of time to format manga properly but it’s perfectly doable.

        On my iPad, I use an app called Manga Plus and in landscape I get the two page spreads. I suppose any app that’s supports two-page landscape view would work. But that wouldn’t work well for smaller tablets

        Normal tablets don’t have e-Ink screens and for reading electrophoretic displays are vastly superior to LED/LCD screens.

            They still have much longer battery life and they’re still like reading on paper. Just not in a very high “print” quality when in colour.

                For e-readers? It’s fine, if it’s modified heavily enough. The tolino e-reader line (before they just became kobos) used a heavily modified version of Android and they were great devices.
