Hisense makes these e-ink phones that run Android. They're fiddly to get a working app store on, but once you do, you can pick your reading app. I run a Hisense A7CC with Kobo, Kindle, Aldiko, Perfect Viewer, and, well, this app! That is, if you want a very small screen. Boox makes a few 6-8" e-ink Android readers. I do like being able to sideload in whichever reading app I want. The colour ones are overpriced though.
Didn't know nothing about that Hisense. Just wow, thanks for sharing.
Those Hisense phones are cool! Seems really nice for reading news and such that you can't get on a traditonal ereader.
