Same for me on going larger for the first time!
Somewhat apprehensive, but the 2 week return window should give me enough time for figure out if the larger screen and battery are worth the portability compromise…
form my experience, you have to be fully committed to the larger phone or you'll always have lingering doubts... for a good few years I did as you mention and always went back to the smaller pro... uncomfortable to hold, awkward in pockets at work etc

It was only last year I felt fully ready to change up given the lack of commuting I was doing with it. I also had in mind based on rumours last year of the larger phone having differentiating features, that I needed to go early and get use to the bigger form factor.

all I can say now... is I'd never go back! the battery life over the pro is a biggest benefit.. its a beast. it is still a big phone, and heavy.. but I'm over noticing those issues now... it works fine for me now daily and commuting. the bigger screen makes media consumption a pleasure too..

commit and embrace ;)

They look almost like suede but this is interesting!
Im all for trying a suede Apple case tbh, imagine they'd make them look/feel nice and you'd hopefully expect them to not be silly enough to make them non-water resistant

Good thing about the cases is that they release them pretty much as soon as they're announced so plenty of time to see reviews before ordering

Well if the price tag is really $109 can’t see many wanting to try them out
 
A price increase might be easier to swallow if they moved the based storage to begin at 256gb!

I do wonder if this is why their is a price increase, if it is just making the base storage 256gb and then the price is the same as last year for 256gb.

Rather than making the base storage 256gb keeping the 256gb price from last year and adding £100 to it.

I have a horrible feeling they will make base 256GB and increase it to £1399 from £1309 (this is for the Max)
 
I've already moved some meetings around to keep Tuesday a work from home day!

I also have Tuesday as a WFH day, otherwise I wouldn’t get back on time! 😂 Hopefully any 5pm meetings with our American clients finish on time!
