People simply like to find excuses to complain and make negative comments about something they are not interested in doing, even if they haven't tried it out for themselves. 
There is no right or wrong way to read books, the sooner people get that through their heads and live and let live the better off everyone will be. |
I certainly wasn't trying to complain or or make negative comments about the way people read. I frankly don't care enough about how others read to complain about it. I was simply pointing out that the article was conflating two different things.
Besides ... 5.5 inches is getting into that murky phablet area where there's really no point in owners/users excluding themselves from the "reading on a tablet" crowd. You're reading on a small tablet that has a phone built into it (and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that).
So yes... I stick to my original claim that I believe people who ARE reading on cellphones (meaning smaller, non-tablet-ish smartphone devices) for convenience and portability
would like it if their smaller screen could magically poof out into a larger size that would display more text at once.
Clearly, those who are reading on nearly reader-sized cellphones can feel free to exclude themselves from my sweeping generalization.
