Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • You could take a look at the Kobo Sage or the Kobo Elipsa 2E, possibly combined with the stylus.
  • For your use case look into a kobo sage (8") or a kobo elipsa 2e (10") both have stylus support and they're big enough to handle reading pdf. Of course, they're also great ebook readers 😊
  • I think: much faster CPU, the ability to change the screen’s light from white to amber at night.
  • The only thing close is the Kobo Elipsa 2e, where it's for reading... and writing is just an afterthought. Snappy interface, FRONT LAMP AND WARM LAMP,
  • Just got a Kobo Elipsa 2e. Screen is big and looks great and it has lots of storage.

Cons

  • Pros: can open epub and cbz, few distractions. Cons: Not great for writing, lower dpi
  • Kobo Elipsa 2E: 400 dollars, no SD card slot, but it does have a front light.
  • I've bought a Kobo Elipsa 2e, and it's really good. Only 270dpi, but for manga it's ok, pdf magazines not so much though.

I just bought a Kobo Elissa 2e for this purpose. Haven’t gotten it yet, but it seemed like the best option for the price.

Maybe the Kobo Elipsa 2E? (owned by Canadian/Japanese company). This would be useful for reading, but not video.
