Smartphone as an eReader ?

[Quelch]

My wife wants me to get a cell phone so she can call me anytime in an emergency etc
I want a phone I can use as an eReader
I have a Nexus 7 that is an ideal eReader around the home but a little large and heavy to carry about in a pocket

Anyone use a smartphone as an eReader they can recommend

You can use any phone as an ereader--it just depends on how big a screen you want. I've read books on my Nexus 5 before quite comfortably.

Thanks for the quick reply and reassurance
Next time I get in to the big city I'll have a look at the Nexus 5 and other smartphones of that size
