Been a long time user of max phones or biggest one can buy. Now however like many I am considering down sizing to the 12 pro but am I wrong to worry about battery and screen resolution etc?

Not to much into the camera extras. Been going back and forth on apples site and another comparing the size differences.

Ofcourse its stressful cause pre-order isn’t far away.

Thanks all!
 
Battery is a few hours less. On the plus side, the 12 Pro actually has two more pixels per inch than the 12 Pro Max ;) Personally I'm down-sizing this year -- the 11 Pro Max is already borderline too big, and with the new larger size and squared sides, I think the Pro Max will become unwieldy.
 
Resolution on 12 pro/pro max is the same. Battery will surely be lower on the 12 pro than the pro max, but I'd be surprised if its a drastic drop.
 
I have the XS Max and I have to say it's too large for my hand - it's more of a 2 handed phone.
I also have the 11 (regular) and like the one handed operation.
That's why I am switching to the 12 Pro.

If I had bigger hands, I'd opt for the Max.
 
I have the 11 Pro Max and it isn't too big for my hands, but it is often too big for my pants. I am leaning towards the 12 Pro this year because I am not sure I want a phone that is larger than the one I have now.
 
Thank you all. I know we are down to the wire. Not sure why this is so hard. Guess I can trade it in for the bigger version. See many people are having the same questions.
 
It is a tough decision I always go with the smaller Pro’s, but want the better camera this time on the bigger version. Wish they would have made the camera features the same. Tough decision this time.
