Yeah, even in the same physical size a larger screen is not strictly better. It's mostly better, but my thumb has not gotten longer just because the screen is bigger and things which I used to be able to reach with it are now out of reach.

Simple thing: phones are getting larger, but people remain the same size.

Some phones come with a "single handed mode" where the entire contents of the screen shrink to a window in the corner. So they are recognizing that large screens are a problem. That's great. Now I wish I could take a saw to this thing and get rid of the dead space around that window.
