women can tell the difference in length and width quite well. even the slightest changes.. or so at least according to a published study. personally I look to strengthen my arms in the gym so that I can hold my phone with more ease 🤷♂️

iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro: Complete Weights and Dimensions

I'm blanking out. Does the 15 pro max have a slightly larger screen or were the rumors that the 16 going to increase the size to almost 7"?
When I gain or lose 10% weight that’s certainly substantial.Exactly - since when is <10% difference, "substantial"?
The 16 Pros will be taller (same width), the 15 Pros stay the same, only the bezels are getting a bit thinner and hence also the outer dimensions, by a millimeter or so.
I empathize, I feel a little jealous too lol.
All kidding aside, the iPhone 12 Pro weight was the most tolerable to me (of course lighter is better) and the 15 Pro weighs the same. I was a little jelly at the thinner bezels but the weight is actually a big factor if you've ever owned a 12 Pro and made the jump to 14 Pro.
For a company that claims to care so much about the environment, it makes no sense the way Apple tweaks the size of every new model so that all previous cases and many accessories get dumped in the trash when the user upgrades.
Another year of abysmal upgrades, skipping this one as well. The features are not worth the price tag for me and I currently own a 13 Pro Max.
if anyone has a problem with the weight of iphones, they need to go to the gym.
make them bigger and larger with a better battery/other tech.

it makes perfect sense. they dont care in the slightest about the environment and only care about money.
Just as you 'BradMacPro' I also have an iPhone 12 and would like to upgrade to 15 pro (???) up until now I've been able to utilise previous iPhone charging power adapters but now I/we will have to purchase a £19/$19 charging adapter, this to me is utterly wrong. Where will it end, say we need a new shaver, electric tooth brush ECT, ECT we can't do what Apple says we can do, because the iPhone 15 only has a USBC cable in the box with the iPhone.🥴🥴
As part of our efforts to reach our environmental goals, iPhone 11 does not include a power adapter or EarPods. Included in the box is a USB‑C to Lightning cable that supports fast charging and is compatible with USB‑C power adapters and computer ports.
We encourage you to re‑use your current USB‑A to Lightning cables, power adapters, and headphones which are compatible with this iPhone. But if you need any new Apple power adapters or headphones, they are available for purchase.

Please make phones thicker with bigger batteries for the love of christ
Of course the slackers at MacRumors only compare size and weight with the iPhone 14, not thinking about folks who skipped the 14 and still have the 11, 12 or 13.
I think they care about the environment only when it intersects with their financial interests, so yes, ultimately it is about the money. Using renewable energy to power their server farms, etc. makes good business sense given that energy costs are only headed in one direction. I applaud their use of renewables, but I don't for a minute believe it's about the environment.
Unfortunately there's no financial benefit in doing the green thing and sticking with the same size/shape for multiple iPhone models. Better to make each new version a millimeter shorter or wider or thicker or thinner...so the accessory consumption cycle can begin anew.
Found it.
iPhone 16 screen size will be 6.9"

This is great news. I hated the weight of the 14 Pro Max and it is one of the reasons I went for the 14 Pro later on. I would consider the 15 Pro Max if it is that light.
Uhhh a US penny weighs 2.5 grams.
The difference in weight here between the 14 and 15 likely won’t be noticeable.
When was the last time you felt weighed down with 7 cents in your pocket?

what? the iphone doesn't change its weight while holding, no kidding?
less weight and more battery?
apple really refactored the internals for this generation.

I suspect it’s to compensate for the slightly smaller outer dimensions (due to the thinner bezels), and also for the camera bumps to appear slightly less ridiculous.

| Thickness | 7.8mm | 7.8mm | 8.25mm | 7.85mm | 8.25mm | 7.85mm |
| Length | 147.6mm | 146.7mm | 146.6mm | 147.5mm | 159.9mm | 160.7mm |

| Weight | 171 grams | 172 grams | 188 grams | 206 grams | 221 grams | 240 grams |
And it will be 10 percent lower as you make the payments on a 15 Pro Max! 😉
People shouldn't be upgrading every year anyway and if they do they can easily afford a new case.
I agree that people shouldn't be upgrading every year. My comment had nothing to do with being able to afford something.
