EVF size and brightness R vs RP

I’m considering an EOS RP as a lighter weight FF alternative to carrying my 5D4, and probably pair it with the 24-240 for hiking/biking/travel. It would also probably replace my 80D and Ef-s lenses. However I am not keen on EVFs in general, and at the moment I can’t get to see and compare camera bodies. I have an M5 and find the EVF less than ideal. I will keep the 5D4 for landscape and wildlife, as I have a wide range of EF lenses.

I’m sure somebody here will have used and compared the R and RP bodies, and can comment on how the EVFs compare to each other subjectively, also how they compare to the OVF on say a 5D4 or 80D. I know the specs quoted - R 3.69MP, 0.76x, RP 2.39MP, 0.7x, but it’s the user’s impression that really interests me. Thanks!
