It's a 5.2 inch Android Ereader. I purchased this and received it today. I bought both this and a Kindle Basic. The Kindle ended being more comfortable device to use for my hand size. I used it for a total of three hours. I have already performed the english process detailed here. Some more information about this device can also be found here or on the r/InkPalm5 Subreddit.

Last time I looked, this was the best guide for converting to English that isn't just ripping off everyone else's work: https://github.com/philips/inkpalm-5-adb-english

The original one had my curious when I first started looking for a pocket e-Reader. I had no idea they existed at all. The idea just appeared to me one day when I got out of the shower and I left my phone with a news article that had a white background on the screen. I thought "man that looks like eInk at this angle, that would be cool if that device existed" and sure enough it did. I saw the github to convert most of it to english https://github.com/philips/inkpalm-5-adb-english but I ended up getting the HiSense Touch instead right before this updated version came out.

Kobos[1] and Pocketbooks[2] are a lot more open than Kindles. AFAIK you can transfer .epub files into both devices and these epubs are perfectly readable via the stock OS. If for some reason you find the stock proprietary OS lacking, you can install an open source one like KOreader [3] or Plato[4]

Of course you want a good way of organizing epubs pdfs mobi, and like has already been mentioned Calibre[5] is a great option.

KOReader is nice. There's also Plato[0] for Kobo, which unlike the Kobo Libra 2 stock reader and KOReader didn't choke on an .epub with the entire Bible in one xhtml file.

Good luck! If you don't like it, there are a few other, similar projects, like Plato. That one is focused on speed and simplicity, so it might actually be better suited to your purposes. It was left unmentioned earlier because it's been incredibly buggy for me, but it's there.

plato

I noticed some similarities in the source code to https://github.com/baskerville/plato/

Is there some common source for Kobo-compatable rust code that you both drew from, or was plato the original source?

On the issues page of its github site. Create a new issue with [Feature request] tag in title.

I don’t really know much about Koreader’s reader (I use it mostly as a file manager/sftp server/OPDS client), but I heartily recommend Plato to read manga! It shows the pages full screen with no margins on the top or the bottom. I haven’t tried with kepubs though, I just read my cbz directly, without passing them though kcc.
