I currently use an old 6 inch Kindle Paperwhite. Looking for an E-Ink reader with:

1) A bigger screen, or just wider. Not sure if 8 inch inch or 10+. Is 10 too big and cumbersome to read causally?
2) For sideloaded books mainly.
3) The ability to highlight text and then see the highlights in a file, like in Kindle, is a must. And of course to be able to export it, even by file transfer.

4) Pdf support would be nice to have.
5) Writing with stylus would be nice to have, not needed.

I'm leaning towards the Onyx Boox Air 2, but I don't know much about the alternatives.
Thanks!
