Perhaps, but I have the iPhone XS Max and latest iPad Pro and it seems much of those displays are noticeably crisper than my 1st gen iPad Pro and iPhone 8 Plus.
iPhone XS Max: 458 PPI
iPhone 8 Plus: 401 PPI
iPad Pro 3. generation: 264 PPI
iPad Pro 1. generation: 264 PPI

So yeah, contrast is probably preferable, if we can only get one parameter improved on eBooks.
