Phone is not a convenient device to read from in itself.
I'd invite you to the office where I work. In a department of some 50 people, look at the phones laying on desks. All you'll see are 5.5 to 6 inch screens. Perhaps an odd 5 inch. I can happily read all day long on a 5.5 inch screen. And yes, for my preferred backlight setting indoors, the battery does last all day.

It's at least 10 years since I've read a paper book cover to cover. I only read on laptop, Kindle, phone and audiobooks now.
