I prefer the aspect ratio of normal eReaders, I also set the text size to a rather big size and prefer reading in vertical mode, which makes it worse, but I've bought the phone for portability, so I can live with it. Reading in portrait puts the volume keys in an inconvenient place, so not an option for me.

As others have stated, is worse. I have a Kobo Forma for reading at home, and at first is noticeable, but once I start reading, I don't notice it.

I like using the volume keys to turn pages, more accurate than my fingers, and it's convenient for me.

The screen is too small for PDFs, I wouldn't use it for that, unless for a quick check.
In sum, I bought it to read on the go, so I'm happy with it, but at home I'm using my Kobo Forma, it has better screen and form factor. I'm not interested in using it as a phone either.
Due to this lock down situation I haven't used it much either, I'm working at home, so the first week I played with it testing some apps I don't have in my normal phone and transferring my library, but afterwards I'm only using it about 30/45 minutes while exercising in my cross trainer and once a week when I go for groceries.
