Which e-reader is best for reading novels outdoors?

Solid picks. One note on the matte screen protector: e-ink is already glare-free and matte films can reduce contrast a bit, so I’d skip it if you read in bright sun. On the Paperwhite, the warm light and bold/size sliders are great for eye comfort, and airplane mode between syncs will stretch the battery a lot when you travel.
Will a MagSafe wallet stick securely to a non-Apple magnetic case and which brands actually hold?

Hey Rebecca! It can work but the ring in the case matters more than the wallet. Cases with the magnet ring built under the back with a steel plate behind it tend to grip far better than stick-on rings sitting on top of the plastic. Thickness between the magnets is the other big factor. If the case adds much more than a couple millimeters over the ring & shear strength drops fast.
Do a quick test at home. Attach the wallet, lift the phone by the wallet, then give a few firm sideways shakes. If it stays centered without creeping, you're probably fine in a front pocket. Clean both surfaces and make sure there is no dust or skin oil. A slightly textured back helps a lot, glossy TPU is slippery. Works great.
Will an HDMI 2.1 switch pass 4K 120Hz with HDR on a PS5 and a TV?

You only need a proper HDMI 2.1 switch for that setup. A matrix is for sending different sources to different screens not for one TV. A full bandwidth switch keeps 4K 120 HDR, VRR, and ALLM intact. Simple.
Keep cable runs short and use certified ones, power the switch from the included adapter instead of a TV USB port, and enable the TV game or enhanced mode on that HDMI input. Do that and the system stays stable with no weird sync issues.
Is this action camera chest mount compatible with non-GoPro models?

Most chest mounts use the common two prong buckle system, so cross brand compatibility is typical. If your camera fork fits a three prong mount and accepts a standard thumbscrew you are set, and cameras with only a 1/4 inch socket just need a small adapter.
