For me screen size was a significant factor when shopping for an e-reader. There’s a limit below which it doesn’t feel like reading a book anymore. I feel slightly alienated by seeing so many smartphone-sized e-readers, at least in this sub.

But in bed at night I have my larger, backlit Pocketbook that I read on.
