  3. I'm guessing it's because most women carry their phone in a bag, so the bigger phone isn't inconvenient and has the advantage of the bigger screen.

    I'm guessing it's because most women carry their phone in a bag, so the bigger phone isn't inconvenient and has the advantage of the bigger screen.
    And I suppose most men prefer the bigger screen size, and they are convenient enough in the available sizes. I use a 6.7 inch, and it fits fine in a pocket for me.
    Also note that although we have way bigger screens on modern phones, the bezels are way smaller, on the first smartphones the screen was only about 50% of the front face. So a 10 year old 4 inch phone can be about as big as a new 6 inch.

      First - you wouldn't want to carry a purse everywhere, especially if you did go through the effort of expanding your pockets (which, since a lot of women's clothing doesn't have big pockets, is 100% worth doing). Second - it isn't about carrying, it is about using. I have average hands, yet struggle a bit to reach my Pixel's upper corner already when using one-handed. It's just sad they forgot half the humanity has smol hands!
