I'm exactly the same. I love the larger screens. They are more flexible. When my eyes aren't tired, I get a lot of text on the screen, when they are tired, I still get a reasonable amount at larger font sizes. I use my Sage at home, the Forma is the one I prefer for taking out and about, due to less weight.

I'm not turning the page constantly with a larger screen, which is helpful, since I have some long-term issues with too much tapping or button-pushing from an old work-related injury. Swiping is my preference, but even that, I don't want to be doing constantly, which, with a 6" screen or smaller, I would absolutely have to at my normal reading pace.

Since 2011, I've owned sizes from 5" on up to the 8" Sage, and it's always the larger sizes that I've had the most pleasure reading on.
