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

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

          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!

      I want to read comics but I also don’t want to miss out on that feeling when you turn a page and are greeted with awesome two page spreads.

      Unfortunately no tablet or e-reader can have this functionality.

        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
