My experience may be a bit different as I am more often on transcon or near transcon flights, and unless I’m on the A321T, those five hours on a A321neo are long.

I often spend flights responding to work emails on my phone, so I definitely need a second screen. On my AA flight last week I ended up watching the IFE from my laptop on the tray table- not the best setup.
