I understood that there was a fair difference in viewable area - 49% when web browsing. I don't know what that means, and it sounds like a crappy stat, but I heard it somewhere.

The mini screen is slightly larger. My math says 4.7 x 6.3 inches vs. vs. 3.7 x 5.9 (from which I get a 36% difference in area, FWIW). And it has a lower pixel pitch (162 dpi vs. 216).

Neither seems particularly significant to me when compared with a 4" phone or 10" tablet which are vastly larger jumps. But obviously that won't stop folks from arguing about it.

The Nexus 7 has the higher res screen though...
