I can understand the size issue on smartphones to a point. The screens definitely won't be going back to 4" like the SE. But even the smallest adult hands should be able to hold the new 5.5 inch screens since they are increasingly going edge to edge and eliminating bezels. The SE was just discontinued sadly. Luckily ereaders have pretty much remained the same and even improved some ergonomically over the years. They are incredibly comfortable to hold.
