I ultimately went with the 11 Pro over the Max even though I love the Max, one handed use / commuting won out for now.

I've gone for the larger size screen every year since the 6 Plus (minus the X, which had no larger size available). It used to be a no-brainer for me when the cameras were only dual lens on the larger models. Now, it's entirely up to which screen size you prefer. Battery life being a secondary factor.

I still prefer the larger size and don't see that changing anytime soon.
 
I run my business off a 11 pro, i have a 11" iPad pro too so no point having a max size phone when they are the same besides screen size.

Thanks for Your suggestions. I am going to buy 11 Pro Max. I am wearing suits 99% of time. My XS Max fits well in my jacket pocket. And I realized, that if You don’t have iPad Pro, then bigger screen of iPhone makes the work more productive, than smaller one. And, of course, films, YouTube experience better on 6,5 screen. And I am well with one-handed use of my XS Max. It’s just time to make such experience.
Enjoy it,but I am curious. Most people said to get the 11 Pro so I’m curious what made you decide on the max.
 
11 pro if you want the comfort for sure, it's a great amount of power in a handleable size.

The ONLY good reason imo for getting the max is if it's actually comfortable for your hands and you have big hands like Marques Brownlee; if the 11 pro is actually "uncomfortable" in your hands, then yes the max would be great. I'm not gonna lug around an uncomfortably sized phone for my hands and pocket etc, for a bit bigger screen for videos and games as that is not my priority.
 
if you plan to browse the web and do anything more that the basic phone use, then go for the max. The extra screen is easier for the eyes and you see more content

Hello! Thinking about changing my XS Max. Help me, please, to understand which device, 11 Pro or 11 Pro Max, to buy? What are Pros and Cons? I m using my iPhone for everyday work (hundred emails, different types of docs, social networks, messengers, etc.). Many thanks!

I agree. To amplify, the Pro Max and the Pro have the same PPI but the Max has a lot more pixels. The result is that if you’re reading emails or a web page you get more content, not bigger content. I find it a lot easier to get context and meaning with more text on the screen.
 
Had a XS max and had thumb and palm issues from texting with this size (although I don’t really understand why). I got the 11 pro and the issues went away.
