I’m reading a lot papers after I switched positions in my job. I felt reading on my display annoying. I can’t draw on the PDF easily nor able to read while I code (not without switching windows). And printing papers is annoying too. I can’t search and the physical paper pile up quickly.

Is an e-reader a good choice for me? Or should I get a tablet instead?

Kindle Scribe is also a good option if you want to be able to write on PDFs, just need to use the Sent to Kindle feature.
