Well, it is not really the "area", it is the number of pixels (though I suppose the size might also matter for the backlighting, etc., but here is one article that discussed it: <http://goo.gl/TSwrzJ>.Alan Baker
Not necessarily an advantage if the larger screen pulls more power. And, the screen size is not the only piece of geometry that determines battery size. Try thickness too.All true, but...In general, a screen's consumption will go up in proportion to its area,Puffin Killer
Sounds reasonable Cite?
More likely: the larger the device the larger the battery can be.Alan BakerPuffin Killer
and then the larger you make the device, the greater its battery life will be overall
Are you claiming the same size battery will last longer with a larger screen?
I quote you: "if you hold the other components constant (CPU, etc),"

(imagine a phone with the same electronics except for a 3' diagonal screen).
So why aren't TV's made that way.
I ask these questions because I'm not an electronics expert, but today you are.
