There are a few color e ink tablets and readers available to consumers now but they’re still getting the kinks worked out AFAIK.

Battery life wouldn't be that phenomenal. Better for sure, but Android, the phone's operating system, is a huge portion of a phone's battery use. This kind of phone has been made before and it failed for that reason. Unless they've solved that, then this one will flop too

Android uses too much battery life for it to be useful as an e-reader, at least much more so than a normal phone.

I'm an idiot - I forgot the number one thing I love about cell phones - the camera.

You should be able to mimic this on your phone now (at least the B&W part). Free new year's resolution.
Android:
Settings>Accessibility>Display>Color and motion>Color correction, toggle Use color correction on, select Grayscale
iOS:
Settings>General>Accessibility>Display Accommodations>Color filters, toggle Color Filters On on, select Grayscale

You weren’t getting 24 hours of active use. This is just revisionist history

Why do I need a phone whose battery that lasts that long? And the target market is the exact same people that rarely use their phones, so they're already likely lasting well beyond a day.

Sounds like it would be great for reddit but you would miss out a bit on the video content

The main thing phone-wise is grey-scale and having reduced motion turned on in the settings.
Outside of that, I went to the ER one time with a persistent migraine and they gave me a bag of magnesium in an IV. They said they don’t know why but it seems to work on medicine-resistant migraines. I now take a daily zinc/magnesium/calcium supplement and it reduced them. When I start to get one, I’ll add on a magnesium dose (not going above the daily recommendation) and it helps. I also have smart lights and turning them to green reduces eye strain for me.

I’m assuming you can text on it? Does it have a SIM card?
