[AndyDandy1]

Hi guys! Just got the 15 PM it feels significantly smaller than the 14 PM is it just me?

Thanks!

Funny, just said exactly the same to the Mrs... It'll take a little while to get used to the lightness too.

I honestly thought they sent me the smaller size. It's so wild! But the screen size is the same right?

I feel the exact same - even though I know it’s actually slightly thicker.

Somehow it feels a little more compact, I’m kinda delighted by it. A lovely bonus.

 

[AndyDandy1]

Wait it's thicker? It feels so much smaller.

It’s annoying I think it feels like a toy without stainless steel, also I wish it was same size at 14 pm with bigger display, the new one doesn’t feel premium

Will take time to get used to, will titanium bend?

Yep, it's more elastic than steel apparently though it tries to return to it's original shape which is one reason it's hard to work with so maybe it will be more like a flex and return than a bend?

I agree with everyone here, when I first picked it up I was like wow didn't think I could feel the difference but nice. and I like that it is smaller with the same screen size even if it is slightly thicker you still don't notice that

Not smaller but lighter. I do welcome the change as the heavy weight of iPhone 14 pro max was keeping pulling my light material short down when it was on the pocket and making me always worried of wardrobe malfunction happening. I am glad that I do not have to be worried anymore 🤣

I was amazed holding one in each hand, my 14PM felt like a brick compared to the 15PM

The body is noticeably smaller, and same with the bezels. The display is the same size though. The difference in weight is barely noticeable to me yet. Maybe, I'll notice more when it's in my pocket, I just got mines and still setting it up.

 

[AndyDandy1]

The titanium shouldn’t bend right?

The screen size is identical. The outer dimensions are 1 mm less in width and 0.8 mm less in height, but 0.4 mm increased in thickness (a 5% increase) (not counting the camera bump, which decreased by the same measure). The increased thickness may actually make the width/height reduction feel more substantial, in conjunction with the weight reduction.

It's perfect.

WOW!! I hope thats true! If so that maybe a perfect size!

15 Pro Max feels so much better than 14 Pro Max. I disliked that phone from the moment I held it. Good riddance!

Yeah, both models this year feel a lot better than last year's. I agree completely. I wasn't expecting this big of a difference.

 

[h.gilbert]

It's the 14-15% reduction in moment of inertia, didn't you know?

 

[Rnd-chars]

Yep, it feels bizarrely smaller than my 12 Pro Max. Oddly, I don’t really notice the weight difference, though that was never an issue for me on my other phones either.

 

[digitalfx]

it is slightly smaller than my 13PM

 

[mrat93]

I think the rounded edges make a noteworthy difference in addition to the 1mm less on height and width.

Looking at the 3D model on GSMArena, the 15 Pro Max is both shorter and narrower than both 13 PM and 14 PM, while being thicker…

15 Pro Max vs 13 Pro Max

15 Pro Max vs 14 Pro Max

15 Pro Max is also 19g lighter than both 13 and 14 Pro Max devices

Same here. Had to double check the box.

The size is perfect and the best shape when compared to other phones in the market. I can't stand long thin phones. They are good for certain things but terrible at most.
