Well, the scale says the XS Max is the heaviest phone Apple has ever released. Logically your statement is not true simply because of steel vs aluminum.

I was going by feel, seeing how I have both devices. Hard to tell the new phone is a few grams heavier in real life (to me). I forgot this is a tech site at the time and a few grams spec is more important to drive home, than asking others for real life feel use.
The difference between the iPhone 7 Plus and the iPhone XS Max is 20 grams (0.044 pounds) Not very much at all, in my opinion. I don't see how some are aghast that some others don't feel the "huge" weight difference from the spec sheet.
