I'm thinking of just leaving Apple Watch connected with my PM and just use the Air with sim plan. Watch will still sync to PM.
For some reason when I moved everything over from pro max to air it connected my apple watch away from pro max lol

My plan is to use hotspot for my other SIM when I need to use air. I had 5 sims lol so planning to stick with just 2 now

I bought the iPhone Air and the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Loved them both but ended up returning the Pro Max. I just felt that after getting all the bigger iPhones in the past I'd try something different which the Air indeed is. As I say I love the Air but also loved the PM and now miss it.

Am seriously thinking of reordering the Pro Max and using both, then keeping the Air as a "burner phone" when it comes to July/August 2026 and the iPhone 18's will be due in September. Then I'll sell the PM for maximum price.

Anyway, is this a crazy idea or is there anyone else who has bought both or are considering doing so?
If you like both and can afford both, go for it. YOLO.
 
I use my Air during the week for work. I like being able to stick it in my pocket and it doesn't pull my pants down and it has the bigger screen for emails and such. Use my Pro on the weekends when I want to take more photos and not worry too much about battery because I'm doom scrolling and playing games more.

Do you just switch the eSim over? What about Apple Watch? Do you sync that also or just leave it connected to one phone?
