Hi all - I know there's been a lot of comparisons with the 16 pro and 17 pro. But I specifically wanted to know how does it feel in your hand (for those who have had both). I know about 5 grams got added to the 17 pro. But does it feel heavier? Or does the new design make it make it about the same or better?

I did read some of the pro max users did find the design made the 17 pro almost feel lighter but this hasn't been said by regular pro users.

Thanks!
 
I just received my 17 pro max for work (personal phone is 17 air) and I was surprised how nice it feels in the hand and it's not as heavy as any of the previous pro maxes. And the speakers...OMG....I miss how nice that sounds, definitely switching back to the pro when the 18's come out.
