There is no definitive answer unfortunately. Even though majority of e-readers use 6" screens, the presence of various extra elements (status bars, menu bars, etc) makes dimensions of area actually used for displaying PDF unique for each device. So the pages in your file will be zoomed in/out according to those physical dimensions which, combined with specific fonts you use, may result in drastic differences in image quality, sharpness of the text, etc. See this message which provides text area dimensions for different e-readers:

Ignore the Russian comments, all the data you need are in English.
