Stainless steel is nice, but the added weight with other increasingly heavier components (larger camera units, larger battery) is not helping. The iPhone 13PM/14PM are 240g, probably one of the heaviest phones out there with the smallest battery (not even 4500mAh).
In contrast, the Samsung S22 Ultra has larger screen, larger battery, an s-pen inside, and it's still lighter than the Pro Max iPhones.
Although Apple is doing a great job in distributing the weight on the phone, I'm shying off anything that's over 200g. Even the 14 Plus is out of my list when I saw the weight. I miss the days when lighter weight was a feature (eg iPhone 5, which was just 112g!, almost 30g lighter than the iPhone 4s).
