It's only an alternative if you can read said e-book on an actual e-reader with e-ink. A smartphone is not an e-reader.

I am currently awaiting the arrival of my BOOX Note, which is a kind of Kindle alternative.

Damn is that expensive though. But I think Amazon sells at a discount to make money on the bookstore.

Kobo is also a kindle alternative, and syncs books from your local library!
