Well, if you are a Plus/Max iPhone user, then 12 Pro Max is a treat. I love the new design, it's much better to hold, and the display is truly out of this world. I am in love with it.
I just think after 1-2 yrs of usage you feel it being clunky in day to day usage and wish u had smaller phone especially that the big screen does not provide additional functionality. 6.1’ is plenty but wish battery life was more like 11 pro.
12PM is the nicest feeling phone and size in the hand I've ever had, and I've had nearly all the previous iPhones.
Yeah, maybe. But those of us who love the Pro Max are happy geeks! ?
I find it more comfy than the 11PM, and I've got really small hands for a guy.
Really loving mine after having to get used to the flat sides.
It’s large but not excessive. The Nexus 6 I used years ago was much wider and harder to handle.
Last big iPhone I used was the XS Max end the 12 PM feels about the same in hand.
Working from home for the foreseeable future so I’m not spending much time running around where a smaller phone would be easier to use.
Came from an iPhone 11 so I’m enjoying the extra battery life and upgraded screen.

I wanted the regular 12 pro, but I went with the Max for the extra battery life and boy I am glad! Also the bigger screen was something I thought I didn’t need but I love it now that I have it. The weight and size don’t bother me.
Excellent in hand. I have small hands and less than perfect eyesight. It feels a lot more comfy than my 11PM. And screen size makes it so easy for me to read. Ours are in Apple silicone cases.

Came from the 11 ProMax so this was not really a jump.
Ergonomically the 12 is much better for gripping. I know my grip with the 12's flat sides makes using it a breeze.
On my phones I use a letter back and privacy screen protector.

I had 6S plus 2-3 years ago. Had X & XR in between. Loved the 6S plus. Owned for 2-3 years.
welcomed the smaller size of X compared to 6S plus but missed the broader screen of 6s plus. XR kind of solved it. 12PM feels amazing in that respect but weight makes it feel heavy imo. About 30-35gm heavier than 8 plus.
battery life is insane and watching photos and videos is great experience. Pro would be a great bet too as same size screen as XR and I never felt I needed a bigger screen
Despite everything I read, I find it more comfortable than the iPhone 11 PM, especially with the Pitaka Air Case, it just feels incredible with that case.
The only thing perhaps is the weight, but you get use it.

Best iPhone I've had since first getting the iPhone 4 in 2010!
Granddaughter has an 8+ and size wise it is really close to my 12 ProMax.
So far I place in the same realm as my Black 5. Have to see how it does over time.
