Pocketbook
PocketBook Inkpad One
The cheapest here and properly available across the UK and EU. It is a lovely reader first — 400 g, aluminium, 25-plus formats — with pen input added. Do not buy it mainly to write on: reviewers place it below reMarkable, Boox, Supernote and Scribe, there are no layers, and 226 ppi is soft.
