Most Androids have a one-handed mode, where it shrinks the display into a corner, so you can reach everything with your thumb.

Wouldn't it be better to just, y'know, cut out the free space around it?

you mean having a small phone in the first place?

I love big phones though. Smaller ones feel too claustrophobic to me

Also, from a usabity point of view, bigger screens are better for watching videos in landscape, editing text and it's easier to use the gestures and the keyboard (I don't even have fat fingers). I think only downside is ring and pinky fingers hurting after a while because of the weight
