Having had the 12 Pro for a few days, its a great device, nice screen size but a little heavy, hard to imaging what the Max would even weigh! Whose happy with the size and weight, whose not, why not!? 
Got a tip for us?

I came from the Xs and I feel a big weight difference. I do really love the phone though so it will take a little getting use to. I can’t imagine the MAX
Here's the comparison for yours. 12 grams more. I'm sure you will get used to it. No worries.

Weighs the same as my 11 Pro but feels a lot thicker even though I know it's a thinner device. I think the curved edges made the phone look and feel thinner than it was vs. the flat edges.
Having said that, I find the 12 Pro easier to type on and do like the flat sides vs. the round sides even though it makes the device feel thicker. I appreciate the larger screen size but wish the device wasn't larger overall vs. the 11 Pro.

We are talking ounces! We drink ounces like it’s nothing. And ur saying it’s heavy! Get your a$$’s to the gym Geesh.🤣
It's not all about holding the phone, try walking 4--6k's with a 11 pro in your back pocket lol.
I don't like the weight compared to the non pro, if that is down to steel, I would rather have aluminium. This poll miss some options. I am not happy about the weight, but I am not undecided, since I am keeping it due to its features. The normal 12 is really not an viable alternative for me, it is too expensive at the same capacity. The Mini on the other hand is much more tempting and the normal 12 should have been priced similar.
Really? The screen protector adds weight of note? Wouldn’t have thought that....
It’s not thinner than an 11 Pro -
Lol. I don’t care what apple says it’s actually about twice as thick!
If you’ve got carpal tunnel issues or just plain old finger and wrist strain, you feel every extra gram! Lol.
Coming from an 11 Pro, I'm still on the fence about the size increase but weight is just fine. I actually prefer the heavier phones and have never understood the gripes regarding weight. I really like the squared edges look but I never had a problem with the rounded ones either.
I'm keeping the phone despite not being 100% sold only because I gave my 11P to Verizon as a trade-in and from past experience I know once you hand it over it's gone for good.
