Magnified screen

My iphone 8plus screen, becomes in my pocket, so magnified that is unusable.

Try to switch it off by pushing the upper right external switch, but the slide to power off symbol is 60% out of the screen, and cannot be switched off.

in my previous 5S, i could switch it off by pressing the 2 buttons silmutaneously.

my previous 5S had the same magnifying problem, but switch it off and the on, it was o.k.

with the 8Plus it is impossible to switch it off.

  1. is there another switch off way, or i have to wait until the battery is exhausted and then switch it on again?
  2. what causes this magnifying issue?

Any help appreciated
