Not a suggestion, but I have tried reading comics on a 10 inch tablet and I hated it. I think it may have to do with the pixel density. I ended up picking up a yoga tab 13 (13") and I love it. I read the entire Saga series on it.
I’d never heard of yoga tabs, I’ll take a look! Thanks!

This is a lot to think about! I really appreciate the depth of thought you’ve given this. I initially assumed I just want to tablet but I’ll give comics a whirl on the ol’ desktop and see how much better they are…
Thank you again for all this, seriously!
Lucky you. We were talking about tablets on [email protected] this week.

Use Tachiyomi on Android to read your comics, it’s a great app.
Any recommendations for sources for Western comics? Like old dark horse or independent comics?
There are western extensions afaik
I had an old Amazon Fire tablet, one of the cheapest models. Thing was basically useless, even after I extracted it from Amazon’s environment.
But, it was perfectly functional for reading, and was an excellent size for comics of any sort in particular. Was also good for video. Just don’t expect it to do literally anything else. Except shop from Amazon I suppose, which is not very helpful.

I use an old Fire tablet for jellyfin and kavita, and it works well for comic books. Pixel density is fine for single pages, but can get a little hard to read two page spreads without turning the tablet, but not enough of an issue to be a deal breaker
I got the ad supporter version, and use Fire Toolbox to remove the Amazon garbage and lock screen ads.
I just love this description so much, thanks!
Samsung Tab A8/9 Lite should be good…
Lenovo M10 3rd gen.
They are about £120, basic tablets with decent batteries, 10 inch screen, has a memory card slot.
Not a comic guy myself but I’ve heard from friends the boox colour eink is very good but thats 2nd hand info and I don’t know what it costs. Hopefully it at least gives you somewhere to start from.
Edit - spelling
Too much money! They’re up in iPad price range.
I would love if there were full-color e-ink that I could read comics at full size on
Lenovo tab p11 pro
Tcl had the nxtpaper or something like that that is an affordable android tablet with a matte screen. Wouldn’t be as good as a boox color but much more affordable
I was in that exact situation and got this one.

Battery life not great but it works for what I wanted it for.
