I read manga on the Hisense Touch which has a somewhat small screen, making it very hard to read some manga. At first, I thought the Touch just had really bad display sharpness but then I realized most scans are just too low-res.

For some manga, I need to hold my phone like 2 inches away from my eyes which is horrible and very damaging for my eyesight, so I was wondering if there’s a manga reader app out there that upscales manga/reduces noise as you read (using something like waifu2x)

I found this feature request for Tachiyomi but it was quickly turned down and as such my expectations are quite low, but I figured I’d ask anyway

    I honestly don’t know any manga reader that does that, particularly considering that upscaling is relatively intensive. What about getting an old Samsung tablet with a 2084x1536 resolution? A Galaxy Tab S5 nowadays is quite cheap and still powerful enough.
