Admittedly it is closer than a 6 inch screen.

Personally I might opt for the 5 inch screen with wi-fi and touch screen, just because it would fit in my pocket better (and of course the price is "barato" - you can determine the meaning from the context.)

It depends. If the PDF was originally formatted with 1-1.25 inch margins all around, then PDF Cropper could whittle away at the blank space and fit each page into a 9.7" display screen.
