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.

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

    Not the current color ones, even though they're expensive.

    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.
