Decided I'm switching to the Pro Max. I love the ergonomics of the Pro size, but the battery life is really bad this year. Literally praying I'm able to find a Pro Max in an Apple Store nearby before my return period ends for my 14 Pro because I sold my 13 Pro, and my only backup phone is a 7+ which is problematic since it doesn't take eSIM.
 
I managed to snag a Deep Purple Pro Max 512GB from a local Apple Store yesterday. I’ll try to see if I can live with this beast of a phone.

I figure if I’m going to be using two hands for the Pro for some tasks, I should use a Pro Max instead for its longer battery life and larger screen.

I just transferred the data over and so far even after just a few minutes so far I’m liking the change.

Pretty drastic stance now after going from an 11 Pro Max and swearing off big phones to switching to Minis for a couple of years to switching back to a larger phone again.

🤦‍♂️😆

you'll find one just have to look like 40x per day 😁
 
I bought the iPhone 14 Pro and was going to trade in my iPhone 13 mini..... I just couldn't deal with the huge phone feeling going from a mini to 6.1" so I returned the iPhone 14 Pro and kept my 13 mini 🤣 Felt too damn big and heavy! Those cameras feel like paper weights!
yeah but... low light, good pics.. got to put int the work if you want performance :)
 
Last year I owned first the 13 Pro Max than the normal 13 Pro. Both had great battery life. This year I first went with the regular 14 Pro and was kind of shocked about the miserable battery performance. I turned off the always on display and for 2 to 3 months it didn't get better. A few days ago I bought the 14 Pro Max to be able to return to a great battery experience again.
I also went with a different colour for the Pro Max. In September I chose gold, which I found very underwhelming. Now I got the Pro Max in deep purple.

I have had the 14 Pro 2 weeks now. I traded in a 12 mini for it with Verizon. It's a nice size and performance is great.
