No, but I'd love a phone that was the size of the Pro Max and folded out into a device with 2x the screen real estate of the Pro Max and ran iPadOS.
Got a tip for us?

No for me. But I think the max is too big. I want a phone that will comfortably fit in my pocket. Way back in the day it was the smaller phones that were most popular. It’s now gone full circle. For me 6.1 is the perfect size.
I wouldn't say no to a larger phone. I've been using Plus/Max sized phones long enough that they don't even seem big to me anymore.
No. I rather wish they'd do a foldable finally then. But the Max is already so big and heavy, I wouldn't want just a bigger brick with half an inch or whatever more diagonal.
Yes. I want a bigger phone and I also want it to have a different name, something like "iPad mini" would sound nice.
6.8'' since it sounds better than 6.7''. Make the thinnest bezels ever. That's it. That's my limit.
Yes if anything I could probably go back to 6.5 The Max already barely fit in some of my pockets
ONLY if apple made the max lighter its heavy (ridiculously so) but a great phone!
This was my issue with the iPad mini. It was smaller than the regular iPad, but couldn’t fit in any of my pockets so it wasn’t easier to carry around then the regular iPad.
Issue with the pro max is the wide form factor and heavy stainless steel which makes the 6.7 inch pro feel more unwieldy than android competitors which are 6.8/6.9 inch. If apple can replace the stainless steel with titanium/aluminium and increase the display whilst reducing the bezel (so the overall footprint is around the same) then 6.8/6.9 inches could work.
I like the wide form factor in comparison to some android phones that are really tall but skinny. If you’re watching videos, it’s a bigger screen if it’s wider because that’s the height of your picture.
I don’t think they will do titanium because it’s easy to scratch. Look at the comments about the new titanium watch. Then of course we have aluminum but can you imagine the back comments if Apple took their Pro phone and “downgraded” it to aluminum like the regular iPhone? People would be saying Apple is ripping people off by selling them a regular iPhone at Pro prices 😂😂
I’ve been very surprised by the usability of the Max after upgrading from the 13 Pro. I was expecting it to be so much more unwieldy but I really don’t notice the difference unless I pick up the 13 Pro which now feels like a Mini.
So yes, I’d be okay with it getting larger.

God, I just hope foldables are not the future. I've had smartphones with plastic screens before, more than a decade ago. They scratch when you look at them wrong. I don't want that crap.
