    I think 9" is pretty decent. The iPad Pro is taking it a bit too far, it's too large and cumbersome to look at and to wield.

    I don't really use my phone for gaming much, but the games I've played have worked great on my regular iphone screen. I'm of the opinion that phones shouldn't be too big because it's a hassle to haul them around everywhere. If I want to play a mobile game on a bigger screen I just use my tablet.

    I agree I think the ipad pro is a bit too big for it to be comfortable. I guess with a few multiplayer games where many people gather around one screen it can be a better option but for most I think the reach is too far for the controls which will just make it difficult.

    I think bigger is better. I don't see how a small screen will make mobile gaming fun. I don't really play games on my phone. I usually use my tablet.

    Same here. Although I guess once it gets too big it will become much more difficult to reach buttons across the screen so maybe just the right size of tablet would be best.

    I am not sure if I can say there is a perfect size, and it probably changes depending on what the game is. I know that some games are better on the smaller, more sharp screen so you can see the little things. I do like a bigger screen though, and my television that I have now (52 inches) is doing pretty well with my games.

    I think bigger is better. I love to play the games on a big screen. If I play a game on a mobile phone then I love to play it on the tab and if I play it on console then I love to play it on a big plasma screen.

    The PC monitor size is the best :D Just kidding, the bigger the size of a mobile is, the better gaming experience. But that is not even the point really because mobiles are not meant for games originally and it would not make sense if they were big as a tablet or something.

    I have no problem with sceen sizes, as long as I can see players. I would say that big screen are better since you can easiy spot a player and all his movements, but in some cases,even small screens can do good. Most phones have a self adjusting capability, which makes it very easy to play games via the phone.

    I think 16'' and onwards are good size for the screen. Some people are happy with the 15'' size of the monitor too. I don't think it's bad though. But it definitely needs some level of efforts for small size monitor in gaming. So I don't want to affect my eyes with it.

    I prefer a 5 inch screen or even larger. I love large screens they make the gameplay more fascinating.

    Same here. I would love to play this game on a big screen. If I would have to play a small screen then default screen would be perfect.

    A large screen is definitely the only way to go if you are looking to get the most out of any game out there, trust me.

    Well put, the bigger the screen the better the gaming experience.

    5.5 inches I think. Because that's what my phone's measurement. So yeah, I guess, its pretty cool.

    Mobile? I think that is too small. I guess 17 inch is perfect for eyes. Then again some of the time portable devices and 5 inch screen is good too. So we learn from that as well.

    I would go for a tablet with a 10 inch screen, i don't usually play on a tablet but it's what i prefer during travel. I love playing in big screen because i think its most enjoyable when you see the graphic details more clear.

    I prefer large screens because it gives me the feeling that I'm actually in the game.

    Hmm. I don't think that large screen would help me feel that I'm actually inside the game. But yeah, I see.
