I also carried a 7 inch tablet before using a smart phone. But my phone with 5.5 inch screen is big enough that with some extra strong reading glasses I can see detail on it as well as I could on the tablet with weaker reading glasses. Both my tablet and phone were Android so the apps were the same.
A side note - I think my tablet with larger screen consumes power faster than my phone, if you have much screen time that is another factor.
