On the contrary, I much prefer reading from a tablet or a smartphone. Unlike printed books, they glow in the dark!

Glowing in the dark is as much a bug as a feature. Lit screens work best in a dark room, where a reading light is more pleasant when you pause reading to do something else.

I spend an inordinate amount of time either turning lights on an off or trying to use the not quite sufficient tablet screen to do stuff.

I use a headtorch, and then end up staying awake for 2 hours after.

An e-ink reader does it better because the front lighting is less glaring and the overall image is more stable. It’s hard to get a phone screen to the right brightness level for reading in the dark, but an ereader will have a very dim front light that you only notice when the room is completely dark.

Do any exist with warm colour temperatures? My kindle paperwhite is at least 6500k and basically unusable without an external light source

Kindle Paperwhite 5th gen has both amber and white LEDs and its color temperature can be adjusted. I don't know exactly what light temperature range it has but it feels very "warm" on maximum setting.

Some of the ones from Onyx Boox have customizable cold/warm temperature sliders.

My Kobo Libra H2O has quite a warm backlight, with variable brightness. I don't recall if the colour temperature is adjustable however.
