The only justification I can see for the big phones is addiction, which is widespread now. If you're using your phone all the time, yeah the bigger screen makes sense so you can do more on it. If you're only pulling it out rarely for a few necessary things, better if it fits in the pocket easily.
I have a 13 mini now. Even if they still made mini phones, my next one would be larger simply because as I get older (I'm 53), my eyesight is getting worse.
I suspect I'm not alone. I think the population of iPhone users is getting older.

The Zenfone 10 looks fantastic.

I agree, unfortunately their decision to only provide two years of software updates is a deal breaker for me.
I'm hoping that folding phones are here to save the day in a "the king is dead long live the king moment" as screens have become so big, they're now overflowing to being small again.
