I bought my Kobo Aura One because the 6" screen of Kindle Paperwhite was too small. The 7.8" screen is fantastic. With a greater font size it is still possible to have more words in the same line. Now when I read on the 6" screen I seem to read in a stamp.

Of course if You buy a 8" screen reader it will be less portable than a 6" screen, but You can use the first as preferred reader and Your actual reader when You have to go somewhere and the bigger is too big to take with You.

It all depends of Your needs: if it is more important the screen or the portability.
