I currently own the 10.5" iPad Pro. Thinking about buying the new 11" model. I use it exclusively to read technical PDF books.

I wonder if someone already upgraded from 10.5 to 11 and see how it compares in terms of portability and if there is a significant difference in terms of font size between the two.

To make things more interesting ... I bought (and still have at home) the 2018 12 inches iPad Pro. The PDFs look fantastic in portrait mode, but it is certainly not as portable as my 10.5, which I initially wanted to sell. So now I am thinking about exchanging the 12 inches for the 11 inches? Would that be a better move? Or should I just stick to my 10.5 instead?

Thanks in advance.
