Do you even lift? Well now you do.

I noticed it the first few days, maybe even week but now I'm used to it. It's like if you wear a 20lb vest/weight every day. It's gonna suck at first, but after a while you get used to it and if you take it off it'll feel really weird.

But how could it be heavier than a device that weighs more?

That sort of logic means that you don't even lift as the title says 😛

If you need to get stronger to lift a phone that weighs 40 grams more than the 4.7 inch iPhones, you have bigger problems than a heavy phone.

I actually like the heft, feels good to hold with that nice, chunky, solid feel to it. My iPhone 6 feels like a puny, weak, paperweight toy in comparison.

I love the extra weight. They were getting too light and slim.

I was talking about 8 Plus vs 6S Plus. I should have probably specified that.

I came from a 6s Plus. I can’t honestly say I don’t immediately notice weight difference.

And if you do notice it to some degree at some point, which one feels heavier?

I don’t know haha. Sold the 6s plus. But when I picked up the X I never felt “damn this is heavy”

Lift with your legs, not your back, when you’re picking it up guys. Wouldn’t want anyone to hurt themselves.

 

[Sean76]

I feel the opposite...

My X feels like a kids phone compared to the Plus's I've been carrying around the last few years.

Interestingly enough, on a tech forum, I see many discuss the weight of the iPhone 8/X and yet, I have never met anyone that's ever even mentioned the weight of the iPhone X or 8 at all outside of here. Some things are just taken more seriously on a tech forum.
