Upgrade from Kindle Paperwhite 2

[AfterInk]

Hi everyone! After 6 years of using a Paperwhite 2, I am thinking of buying a new ereader. I work as a curator and doing my phd in history so much of the books I read are in this space and sometimes I also write and read Science fiction. Right now I read a lot of pdfs, mostly A5 or B5 dimension for page so I am not that inclined for buying a ereader with more than 8 inches, mostly for keeping the size down and not taking a lot of space in my backpack. I had come across lately over a few devices wich I thing are a good choice for me. I am talking about
Kobo Libra 2 colour,
Pocketbook Era and
Kindle Paperwhite 6’8.
What is the better choice? Most of the books i have are offline and I tend to get a lot of the ebook off-store so mostly i will sideload, or maybe put it in a cloud solution. I have seen a Kobo Clara BW and i kind of liked a lot the screen and the speed of it, also it could be a choice if not for the small screen.

The Kobo Sage is 8″. Unfortunately the good Kobo Libra 2 7″ is discontinued and no FCC of new models yet.

Well, Sage looks like a Libra on steroids. And I was suggesting the colour version of Libra 2, but from what I have read around here, the screen is not that good as a B&W variant.

The Kindle Scribe would be decent for PDF.
