There is only a small difference in their size.

Paperwhite 5: 124.6 x 174.2 x 8.1 mm

Paperwhite 6: 127.6 x 176.7 x 7.8 mm

Yet Amazon has been consistently increasing the size of the Paperwhite models over time, each one a bit larger than the previous one. They remain portable, but no longer fit into one’s pockets, for instance.

FWIW I weighed my Paperwhite Gen 5: 201 grams vs. 211 grams for the new Gen 6. So 5% heavier.

I have the last gen Paperwhite and it still fits in my pocket.

Admittedly I have big pockets.
