10.1" 16:10 5.4" x 8.6"
  • fit 3:2 page to screen: 5.4" x 8.0"

9.7" 4:3 5.8" x 7.8"
  • fit 3:2 page to screen: 5.2" x 7.8"

10.1" 16:9 5.0" x 8.8"
  • fit 3:2 page to screen: 5.0" x 7.4"
Now that you mention it, my Lenovo may be 16:10

Here's a photo of the same comic displayed on my 4:3 tablet running Windows 10 and my Lenovo tablet. I changed the colors on the letterboxing so you can see what is unused screen vs. bezel. It may or may not be obvious in the photo, but the comic is noticeably larger on the 16:10.
