9" devices are too large and bulky for me. I prefer 5". For comfort, 6" is perfect.

I even use a relatively large font on my 5" device. I could make it much smaller and still be readable and require only half as many page turns, but I prefer a font size that does not involve eye squinting.

I just counted the words on the page I'm currently at, at my current setting I still have 150 words per page. That's a little more than half of a regular book page, takes me longer than just a second to read, and page turns are not a problem for me.
