I went to best buys to look at the demo unit but it was on demo mode and the person working there could not get it out of it so I have no idea.
My concern is that with the letterbox format, the pages will be condensed and the letter would be too small to read.
Please let me know if you have any experience with magazines.

You can usually "pinch" to zoom out and enlarge text. I think in single page view, though, a 7" would be enough. I have a 10", however, and my key tablet use is reading mags. In 2 page view, which I often like, 7 is not enough unless you're zooming in all the time. I like to read while I eat. Constant zooming is an annoyance.
For reading ebooks, I'm content--indeed,
more content--with my 5" S4. But those mags on things like Zinio are an exception.
