Remarkable 2 doesn't have a backlight. Kobo's software is fine (mostly), but the design or manufacturing seems to be a notch below. On my Kobo the touchscreen is enragingly inaccurate.

And, direct access to the Amazon library is not an insignificant advantage.

What do you mean by the kobo screen being inaccurate? Is this for the stylus of the touch itself? I was considering buying a kobo but this comment scares me a bit now.

I've had 3 kobos and never encountered touch screen issues. Just make sure not to drop it down a staircase.

I've been using an Elipsa for about a year with a Renaisser stylus - have not noticed any inaccuracy but the writing can sometimes be laggy. I really like it, all in all though - all of my work notes tend to be on it.

Do e-ink displays with a backlight even exist?

It's a front light technically. Still, the device is self lit or not.
