  In my experience this is actually a good thing. Many application developers designing their own UI standards often leave buttons and touch targets that are way too small to accurately touch and it annoys the hell out of me. This often happens on the web as well! That said, I use Android's built-in UI scaling to reduce the size of icons and such that seem to have grown as phone screens became larger.
