Just to give you some context as a counterexample, I often need to read 10-50 pages of dense, size 10, double column scientific PDFs with many graphs and figures. These documents, which are typically either A4 or letter size, look abysmal at nearly any scale <90%. Color is also regularly required to parse many graphs properly.
I use my Kindle exclusively for reading documents which are primarily lightly-formatted text (e.g. novels, textbooks, etc) but it's atrocious for PDFs. When needed, I switch to an iPad Pro that I use exclusively for reading (and annotating) these PDFs, which is likewise horrible for reading "regular" text.
