Hi guys,

Last year I went from the 11 Pro Max to the 12 Pro and shortly after returned it. The main reason I returned it was because I the battery on the 12 Pro was much less than the 12 Pro Max. For those who kept the 12 Pro, do you intend to upgrade to the 13 Pro? Or will you be reverting back to the Max series?
 
I went from 11 Pro Max to 12 Pro. I plan on staying with 13 Pro as well. The 6.1" screen size is perfect for me.. The 5.8" on the 11 Pro was a bit small.

I went from 11 pro max to 12 pro mainly because my usage changed. I simply wasn’t consuming as media as previous years. Sure has there been times I’ve missed the larger screen absolutely. But in the end I’ve survived a whole year with the smaller phone and it is so much easier to hold one handed and most of all it fits so much better in pockets. Personally won’t be upgrading at all this year. Still happy with my 12 pro

Hmm. Im going Max this time for battery life. I don't read or watch videos on an iPhone. Sounds like I should just stick to a regular sized phone? I can afford the max but sounds like the only difference is screen size, right?
 
My wife went from 11 Pro Max to 12 Pro. She complained the battery didn't last as long but everything else was a plus for her, the Pro Max is just too big, especially when you put it in a case, it gets thick and heavy. She is getting the 13 Pro now, even though I asked if she wanted to go back to the Pro Max. The longer lasting battery of the 13 Pro is just what she wanted.
