It depends on how one plans to use it. I personally don't want to carry one device for reading, one for watching videos in addition to a phone. (It's very unweildy, I have done that for some time so I know)
Large screen phone for me is a catch all device. When commuting, I can catch up on Netflix or read books comfortably on iPhone 8+
Landscape orientation and continusous scrolling in Kindle or Apple Books works pretty good. The screen is just about right size for watching video content as well without much strain.
I say this as I invariably carry a laptop as I do get uncontrollable urges to write code at any random time of the day. If that happens while I am commuting and lucky enough to have a seat, I have my personal Thinkpad (or a work MacBook) to that end.
Have been trying Pythonista+WorkingCopy recently, seems OK on an iPad, hopefully if I get in the flow of using it on iPhone 8+... happy days. Maybe I will consider getting Xs Max (cost and lack of physical home button are keeping me away from it for now)
