If the priority is ease of use then tapping would be preferable to swiping and less time consuming. The function most often used is the 'next page' one by far, tue NT is far more convenient as you have the button under your finger and don't have to do any moving just push down.

Some other features are more easily navigable because of the touch screen, such a dictionary look up, and collection creation but these are not used as often as "next page"

Ultimately it comes down to personal preference and what you feel is morefitting for your specific needs.
