By using the hidden Android settings menu, you can change the sizing of your display. The phone has the options of either large (default) or small.

The phone was only made to use the default large setting, and because of that many stock elements may not render as intended. For example, notifications will be slanted to the left and the outside display will have odd rendering.

Legibility of some text may be harder due to it becoming smaller, but many side loaded apps will benefit from being able to render and a larger size. Most custom apps do not render well on the phone in the default display setting.

Go to the Android settings menu and access the setting under Accessibility > Display Size.
