I’ve got a kindle keyboard 3 and want to know if there’s anything better out now. My main requirement is being able to load in my own content and have a nice cover/case

I don’t care about apps or web browsers, but it would be nice to have something that is easy to sync or upload data to.

The newest Paperwhite from Amazon has a few things to recommend it.

The light is built in, and is still not technically a backlight.

It can produce warmer light to help you sleep and keep the pages more sepia toned.

It’s water resistant.

And it finally has USB-C.

I like to load up my own font choices and I can send whatever book I want to it, but if I own the audible and kindle version those sync between one another. So I can listen in the car and read before bed and won’t lose my place.

I really love mine. YMMV.
