My wife and I both have had the + / Pro Max version of the iPhone since the 6+. We got our first Non Pro Max iPhones over the weekend - went to 17 Pros. We love them. Easier to hold, screen has same sized text but only a few lines missing, fits in pockets a lot easier, and ... battery life is outlasting our 15 Pro Maxes. So we're really happy.

I already was pretty unhappy with my 15 Pro Max's weight. And ... I read several 600+ page books on it - so I really gave it a go (and 2 years 1+ month of ownership). I took one look at the 17 Pro Max, held it, and said nope. Air was enticing but ... I take way too many pictures and need a speakerphone I can hear in a crowd.

Proud owner of a 17 Pro (my wife is too). We really like them. Looking forward to 2+ years with these.

I downsized from a 15PM and bought the 17 pro. Absolutely loved the form factor and how comfortable it was to hold.. Unfortunately had to switch to the 17PM because the keyboard was too narrow for me. I have big hands and my thumbs constantly got fatigued. If the typing experience was better I’d have stuck with it.
