Help me find a new ereader! Can you recommend one?

I've have had a #Kobo Forma for five years - its the perfect #ereader.

Why I love it?

1) 8.0” display, 1440 × 1920 resolution

2) Works flawlessly with linux #Calibre - easily manage my books. Never connect to wifi as there is no need.

3) Can invert display to white txt/black background; at night my wife can sleep. I DO NOT want a color display.

4) battery life is incredible.

What is something similar I can buy today?

I really like my Pocketbook Inkpad 4.

7.8 inch, white on black (“dark mode”) or black on white, can handle many formats, no account required.

I don’t read DRM protected books, so can’t say how well those are supported.
PocketBook InkPad 4 can withstand immersion into fresh water to a depth of 2 meters for up to 60 minutes

The device is compact, perfectly ergonomic and stylish: discreet front and back panels in black make a nice contrast with moon-silver edging. InkPad 4 supports 25 formats without conversion: 21 book and 4 graphic formats

@mattof

These look nice, but I do not think you can get them in the States.
