Almost no difference. You can compare 5" and 6" screens here
That is not a fair comparison. The book on the Jetbook has no margins. while the Kindle book has margins. Also the Kindle has a header and more space between lines. If you want to do a fair comparison, choose a device/book/settings that closer approximates the Jetbooks screen. If you tell me what size font that is, I can give you a shot of my 505 with no header, standard line spacing, and the same size font. Then you can get a more accurate comparison.
