Tablet only because I listen to audiobooks. Otherwise, it's my desktop because I can't read most text without enlarging it now.

Maybe you can help me. How do you read some sites on your phone? This one for example.
TapaTalk as MR doesn't have a mobile site. Most sites like Facebook, Amazon do have mobile sites. I use those versions. As the Moto E screen is pretty small.

It's not wonderful, but it is there .

I find the standard MR site to be absolutely fine on my iPhone, though.

That's because it's an iPhone. I have a Moto E. It's cheap and no where as fancy.

As Blossom said, she has a Moto E. Different device, different OS, different browser. YMMV, etc.

So what Blossom is saying is that iOS is better than Android.

Can you say this in the thread where some people are trying to push Android tablets to deal with PDF when an iPad Pro is better for that (due to the better apps) hands down?

I think both have pros and cons
There are some nice apps for PDFs on both platforms.

Definitely spend the most time with my iPad for reading books. Thin, light, crisp display... I can read for hours in comfort. And then attach a keyboard and take notes if I need to do so. Perfect.
