I know on past iPhone there was a regular and a Zoomed mode that made the icons larger.

I can't find it on the X

Is it possible to make the icons larger on the X ?

It seems they removed that option on the X. If they haven't they moved it somewhere I can't find it.

It’s only available on the Plus, for now.

I had a seven (non-plus), and it was available there too.
I already found this was removed on the X, and don’t think it’s a good idea. I know several people who always turned enlarged display on, as that felt more convenient for them. I was one of them.

It might be because of how tall the screen is, that could be why Apple disabled it on the X.

I think they might not yet be ready with adapting it to the different screen ratio, maybe also the notch plays a role. I really hope they will re-introduce it soon in a future iOS release.
