Hey all! I'm currently using a very old Kobo Glo HD and I'm finally looking to upgrade but even just a quick glance shows how much the market has grown since the last time I went shopping for one. Kobo, Kindle, Pocketbook, Boox, not to mention all the no name rebrands and I'm sure I've missed tons of brands I just simply don't know about. So I've come to you hoping for recommendations!

Features I'm looking for: * $200 or less (I want closer to $150 is possible) * 6" or smaller (honestly ereaders shouldn't be any bigger 😋) * 32Gb of memory and/or an SD slot (I read lots of manga) * Flush screen (cleaning the dust out of the bezel is a pain) * Backlight with color temperature (do they even make non-backlit ones anymore?) * Calibre and epub support (I will be side loading all my books)

Would like but not a deal breaker: * Android (I have a couple of apps I would love on eink) * Color screen (again for manga)

Deal breaker: * Kindle (I picked up a beat up PW(2018) for $15 the other day, it's fun but reminded me why I don't like Amazon lol) * Buttons (I will almost definitely press them when I don't mean to)

I think that about covers it. Feel free to recommend things that don't full match up with the features I listed, I don't expect the perfect device exists so I'm willing to compromise.

On a side note, do any phone sized ereaders exist without all the...phone stuff, the cameras, the cellular, the power hungry cpu? I would kill for an ereader that size that's not bloated with all the other nonsense.
