Downsizing? I'm going the opposite. 6.1 to 6.7.....if they ever release it.
I downsized 2 years ago and never again, I just love the big screen so I am staying with the Max. However my friend downsized and likes the portability so there is no definitive answer just whatever your preference is.
I want the pro max but the long delay is putting me off.
Might get the 12 Pro just so I can use it for one month extra.

I’m stepping down to the 6.1” Pro. I hate that by doing so I’m giving up the better camera but this 6.5” is just too big and cumbersome.
I think the fact that the new smaller Pro will be 6.1” instead of the 5.8” Pro will help with that decision as well. It’ll feel like less of a step down in terms of screen size.
I’ve been playing with my mom’s iPhone XR and I have to say it feels so much better in my hand. And I’m even more excited about the new 6.1” because it’ll have a smaller sized body than the XR/11 due to the smaller bezels.

I don't have the 11 pro max, but I feel like I cannot downsize it would difficulty especially if I keep the phone for the longterm (2-3 years).
This is going to be a tough choice for me!

I'm debating sticking to the 6.7 if it's the same overall dimension as the current 6.5.
On the other hand, I started a remote IT job this summer (and it's remote permanently, not just temp for covid), so I find myself not even using my phone as often. My iPad has become my primary media device, so I may opt for the portability of the 6.1.
I'll wait for the event and see the differences in battery life, camera, and other specs before making a final choice 😬

That’s what I was thinking but the return date is good for 14 days for iPhone isn’t it?
Yeh it’s the same 14 day return period.
Is it because of the screen size or the camera?
I want the pro max but getting it a month later is annoying. That also means you effectively have 10 months of usage before the next one comes out in 2021.
@Boardiesboi The main thing was the LCD vs. OLED. I didn’t think it would be as bad as it was with dark mode. The size of the Max is a little more comfortable for me as well. The 2x zoom lens I didn’t miss a ton but it’s nice to have.
I bought a 11 pro max last year and had it for 3 days before returning and getting a regular size 11 pro.
Just didn't like the size, wasn't comfortable in the hand, the phone had 0 extra benefits over the standard 11 pro
the bigger screen has no benefit either, for example if you load messages, I can see my 10 most recent...load it on the pro max...10 of my most recent.
