Mine is the older Clara HD so not as new as the 2E. It's about normal responsiveness for E-ink screen I found. The only type I had used before hand is an 2nd Gen Kindle.

I use KOReader instead of the default Nickel. Battery life is good, seems to go a bit faster than when I got it a few years ago now. But still more than enough for me. I usually keep wifi off and backlight is on low when I need it.

Oh can you use different (for a lack of knowledge) "Apps" as your reader within the device?

I don't actually know if there are any others. KOreader offered more customisability at the time over the default and the ability to use OPDS catalog over wifi so I could connect to Calibre which I use to manage my ebooks.

I'm not sure if it's changed but there was no default way to get my own downloaded books over wifi when I got it. I didn't want to connect to the PC everytime

Nice. Will keep that in mind if I end up pulling the trigger
