I've never used one but it struck me as odd that people would use a seperate device for smth so easily done on your phone.

Is there smth special about the hardware? Is it better somehow?

Others have commented on how the display looks like paper but I will add that the battery life is incredible, the devices are very lightweight, and because they're only designed to display books you don't get any distractions from notifications or any other things you might do with your cell phone.
