For those who want to change density without root, follow these steps

1)Open settings go to about
2) Tap build number 6 times til lit says youre now a developer
3) Go developer options, enable usb debugging
4) Download adb here
5) Connect your phone and inside adb command prompt type adb devices
6) command prompt will say unauthorised. Press ok on your phone
7) Type adb devices again, now it will show as authorised
8) For ze550ml you can type:
adb shell wm density 240
For ze551ml you can type:
adb shell wm density 380
9) Restart phone and enjoy bigger screen area

To undo changes type:
adb shell wm density reset
what benefit does this yield?

Lowering size means things will appear smaller. So in menu/browser you dont have to scroll too much.
Doesnt affect photos/videos quality. Only the button sizes

Try it, its reversible.

Squeeze more sh*t into that big screen - some people can't stand all that spacing between the icons, or the font size still too big even when set on tiny.

for me, every device need to bump up density as high as 280 for bigger text.
