This is a cool device that works as a mini-ereader and can even fill in for some use cases if you're trying to limit phone use. I'm not sure this is slick, but I've been watching the price for a while and it hasn't gone below list price since August.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CQ7VRNFS- A Phone-Like Experience on ePaper: Witness the new form of ePaper technology. With a sleek form factor and an aspect ratio that is commonly seen on smartphones, the Palma fits snugly into your bag and can be comfortably held in the palm of your hand.
- Effortless Use with Custom Widgets: Create a personalized home screen in Palma using widgets, exactly as on your phone. And see the most important messages and updates without having to launch an app.
- Comfort and Power, in Balance: Embrace a healthy lifestyle on ePaper. You can view your everyday content without eye fatigue on its state-of-the-art E Ink Carta 1200 display² with an ultra crisp resolution of 300 PPI.
- Feel the Flowable Interaction: Every operation goes smooth and seamless with each detail purely displayed. All is brought to life by our latest BOOX Super Refresh Technology³ with our new display enhancement algorithm to reduce ghosting, driven by the integrated GPU.
- Navigation Made Simple: Do a lot more with the customizable Function Button⁴, from going back or performing a full refresh, to accessing the E Ink center or taking a screenshot. You can also tailor the Volume Buttons⁵ to turn pages or act as scrolling buttons.

Btw pricewise I got it at msrp but official case included. Offers better grip and a bit more protection. I'd still be careful with putting any pressure on the screen. Google boox broken screen.

TLDR, spend the extra $30 on the 2nd gen Boox Palma.

Regarding usage and build, Boox devices from experience have been good but eink is not for everyone. be aware you are not buying this for watching video, scrolling through social media or for reading comic/manga. The size and form factor mean these are targeted specifically for reading books.
