Are there any advantages or disadvantages to reading with an e-reader compared to a traditional book?
I've heard things like "scientific studies show that people who read physical books remember things easier" and stuff, but it could be total bullshit.

Yeah that's bullshit.
"Muh eyestrain" is also bullshit.
Just read your textbooks however you like.
Never listen to a paperfag.

it's not bullshit, olfactory and physical memory play a bigger role than you'd expect

I use a kindle and my cellphone to flip through problems and solutions quickly. Never noticed any difference in retention.
But I also like to study in low light with candles like some kind of fucking monk so Don't look to me for the norm.

Only if the book is optimized for an e-reader. Don't even try to read a pdf on those things
