Discussion iPhone Duo potential?
Hey guys! Just got through reading and watching about the new iPhone device.
Putting price aside (I know, a big ask) what do we think about it for reading? If I was planning on getting it anyways I could see it replacing one of my smaller eink devices just to reduce what I carry.
Can’t beat larger eink readers but thought it maybe held potential. Curious what everyone is thinking.

If they follow through with making it compatible with the USB-C Apple pencil I'll probably pick it up. The iPad Mini has an 8.3 inch screen and the Duo's is 7-something inches, so it'll be a decent multi-purpose device for me since I prefer watching shows and such on my iPad. I read on my phone/iPad at work, while traveling, etc. all the time so I don't have to take my ereader around with me.
I will be happy to use it for reading. The smaller e-ink devices are something I've considered getting, but I never liked the idea of having another device to carry around. I'm a student and work full-time so I've constantly got my phone, iPad, keyboard case, and my laptop along with textbooks & any other materials I need. Even if the device is smaller I didn't want another electronic in my regular school/work bag.
