Does this actually fit in your pocket? Front or back?

I have a Kobo Mini with a 5" screen that's perfectly pocketable, but it's on its last legs, and the 2012-era e-ink lag is noticeable.

I have looked at modern options but they're all 6" minimum with a lot of bezel, which means they won't fit.

There's a few more obscure Chinese options. Xiaomi has the 5.2" Inkpalm 5 mini. Runs Android but you need to convert it to English yourself. Aliexpress also has random 4.3" eInk devices.
It’s fits well in mine and I’m not a big guy. Also I really like how well and fast it renders normal android apps.
