No 6" screen is ever going to handle A4/Letter sized PDFs well, whatever the resolution, unless you have superhuman eyesight. The screen just isn't physically large enough for it.
The best current smartphone screens are already at 300+ dpi. You'd still go blind trying to read that PDF of yours on them. |
I have a 9.7" device (PocketBook 902), which is slightly better than the T1 in terms of resolution, but it doesn't have a Pearl screen. I have difficulty reading PDFs on it because of the anti-aliasing of the thin fonts. I've attached an image of what the text looks like from a typical scientific paper viewed in landscape mode. As you can see, very little of the text is black, because the thin strokes don't fill enough of the pixels. So, the text ends up having low contrast. With a higher dot pitch, you'd see more filled in (black) pixels for characters of the same physical size, and they would be easier to read.
