I've been seeing a lot of good stuff about PocketBook. They support all major ebook formats. They're also good if you're privacy focused, though it comes at a price. Their privacy policy makes them the only brand I'd ever consider. Here's a few links depending on your needs and budget:
I already mentioned this elsewhere, but if you're concerned about privacy, you might consider Kobo as well; you can use their readers without having a Kobo account at all. That removes the store of course, but as long as you're ok with side loading your books, you're good.
Hoping to hear feedback from anyone who has owned one
If I had known about PocketBook I might not have bothered with my Kobo. But my Kobo Elipsa is nice.
What about it is more convincing?
I don't understand your question. Care to clarify?
TIL: There are couloured ink displays now. Not sure if this is really necessary for my purposes though.
Might be nice for comics if you're into that.
Yeah I thought so too. But I'm not reading any comics or mangas, just plain old text books. But it's great, that the technology is there.
