I have iPad Pro from 2020 (pre M1). It's still way faster than I need (most heavy work I do on laptop) and still unbelievably good.

The only thing I miss is the ability to read under the bright sun. New Tandem screen unlikely to change it, so I'm opting in for 13.3" e-paper tablet. As I often read academic papers, that should be a killer one, but new 13" iPads also look promising for that!

I have the same problem. I still print mine out and read them on paper. Low tech but it's the best experience.

I ordered Onyx Boox Tab X – seems to be the only real option out there. It has Android, so it's possible to use your favorite reader/app on it (I'm using ReadCube Papers). Can't wait to try it.
