What will you guys do with your 12 Pro? Sell it? Or keep it as backup? I think I'm passed my 14 days at this point, I'm thinking of selling it... I won't be getting my 12 Pro Max till the end of the month. What are you guys doing?

I'd keep both. The 12 Pro gives you a more portable experience when you need it.
 
But aren't all phones supposed to be easily portable.

All iPhones are portable, but some are more portable than others. The iPhone 12 Mini offers the most pocketable experience for example. The Pro Max offers the biggest and best of everything, but it's size may not always be convenient. This is where owning a secondary smaller iPhone 12 Mini/12/12 Pro can really enhance your quality of life.
 
Ill use the Pro Max for a couple of weeks and see how I like it. I may just sell the 12 Pro
 
I will give my 12 Pro to my sister , and will pick up the ProMax on Friday at Apple Store !

Thinking about return the Pro since still within 14 days but just had a lunch with my sister yesterday and saw she still using her 7 plus with cracked screen , asked her why dont replace the phone , she said still work good and dont have time , and she doesnt care about phone much . And will give her my 12 Pro !

( hopefully my plan gonna work , since she is leader surgery doctor at hospital and I want to replace my truck to another truck , last time she bought me a truck , hopefully history will repeat )
 
I managed to get my hands on a launch pro and had a good play with it before returning it. Its a fantastic handset but part of me wondered if I would regret not trying out the Max before committing to one of them. Max arrives on Friday and I will give it a week before deciding if I should keep it or return it and go back to another pro. The only thing that is worrying me about the Max is its size and weight. I came from an XS Max so i'm hoping it wont be much of an issue.
 
I'm really having a hard time deciding if I want to keep both. I have until 11/19 to send my 12 Pro back. I get my 12 Pro Max Friday and I will compare. I'm coming from the 11 Pro Max and thought the 12 Pro would be perfect. I ordered the 12 Pro Max hoping it wouldn't feel a lot larger and heavier than my 11 Pro Max did because I do kind of miss the larger screen. I would use the 12 Pro at times when I don't want to carry the larger phone and eventually sell or gift it to someone.
 
I did it the other way around and skipped the Pro to go for the Pro Max. As a 11 Pro Max user, I have decided that the increased size of the Pro Max based on the reviews, weight and dimensions is one step too far so i will return it when it comes tomorrow and wait for the Pro to be delivered. The first of my leather Pro cases has arrived and comparing it to my 11 Pro Max case, its not that much smaller but oh so much easier to hold.
