After using the 13 Pro Max for a couple weeks I'm considering returning it and going with the 13. As I look through the comparison sheet it doesn't seem like many of the Pro upgrades I'm actually using. Was hoping to get other people's perspectives and hear from those who did make the switch. Below are a couple things I've been considering:

- ProMotion: I'm unfortunately unable to use this feature due to it causing me nausea :(

- Camera Upgrades: Haven't really used Macro/Lidar/Etc. but I wonder if I'd notice the difference going to the 13

- Battery Life: This is the one that most holds me back. I'm really enjoying having that extra battery of the Pro Max

- Size: I'd miss the big screen of the Max, but it would be nice to have a phone that isn't so heavy

If there are any major differences that I missed or should consider please chime in. Thanks!
 
I spent some time with the 13 Pro Max, and it’s just not doable for me. Yes the screen is awesome (although hugely underutilized functionally), and the battery is frankly unbelievable, but it’s all overshadowed by the absolute unwieldy mess that it is to live with.

Smallest interactions become something I need to stop everything else to do. Not for me.
