  • iPhone 16 Pro vs iPhone 16 Pro Max is a a really tough decision this year because both phones are basically equal, other than screen size and battery life, making the iPhone 16 Pro the best smaller pro phone since the iPhone 13 Pro, and also the Pro Max is the biggest and best yet. Which is right for you?

    I don't use any other device except my phone. Neither a tablet nor a laptop/desktop. That extra screen size and battery is the reason I prefer it over the pro, it feels like a multi device

    I think it’s a pretty straight forward decision. If you want a bigger screen and the best battery then it’s pro max. If you like a smaller phone and want a battery that will easily get you through a day with quite heavy use then the standard Pro is the choice.
    For you, because of content recording then it’s the pro max (for the battery)

I’ve never had the bigger phone but as someone in a different video pointed out, the iPhone 11 Pro Max was 6.46” so in a sense I do have a bigger phone with a 6.3” screen on the 16 Pro. Will probably stick with what I have.

    It was an easy decision for me, i just can’t use a regular 16 Pro, I love big screens. My main requirements of an iPhone is the screen has to be big (I’m visually impaired) and battery life is also a priority for me so the Pro Max is the iPhone I go for since the 11 Pro Max, or rather for me, its been since the e 6s Plus, i just can’t go back to a smaller phone now. I’m just used to having a bigger screen now.

    I always carry an Android as my primary (S23 Ultra), but I have an iphone 14 Pro Max that I have used as a secondary number for a couple of years.
    I prefer larger phones, but for whatever reason, the iphone 14 Pro Max just "seems" much heavier. Popsockets make everything so much easier to handle, I can't go without them. 😂
    Anyway, I just bought the iphone 16pro to replace the iphone 14 Pro Max, and it is already much better to handle, and I appreciate the slight increase in screen real estate without being unwieldy. We'll see how it works out over the next year.

First time using the smaller pro series and I’m glad they made it 6.3! Feels so nice and light and I can finally wear it comfortably in my pants and shorts without looking stupid lol. Really enjoying the portable size! Battery life is really good as good as the 15PM. I carry a portable battery pack around so don’t really care for battery

    At 54, my eyes are definitely not getting better. For the last 7 years I have used seperate reading and everyday glasses. I am upgrading from an 8 Plus which has the same screen realestate as the regular pro but the body size of the Pro Max. I am used to the form factor. My eyes are not getting better and I plan to keep this iPhone for at least 6 years. I think there are a few people in my boat. They are used to accomodating the size in daily use and the screen realestate is the most important factor. It can mean the difference between reading your phone without swapping glasses.

Don’t all phones that are any good vary the refresh rate on the screen depending on what you’re doing? I guess my question is if a phone were at a constant 120, or operating at 120 under basic navigation wouldn’t that be a wast of battery? Are Android phones 120 at all times, and why would you want that.

    I picked up both and shifted back and forth at least a 10 times over the course of the last week. I've ended up going with the Pro - the Max was a chore to carry around compared to the Pro. I'm over 6' and can palm a basketball, so I'm capable of handling the bigger size, I just decided the convenience of the Pro was better for me.

      I do DoorDash on a scooter in DC that made me go Pro as well

    I would prefer the smaller one. I already carry a massive power bank in my bag so battery life isn't the biggest concern. It's been excellent on my Pixel 9 Pro, though.

    I have a hard time too, and i still don't know which one too pick. Gotta have to see them in person first.

      I have ordered two cases from Amazon - one for Pro and other one for Max :) Hope it helps me to choose the right size for me

    Pro max for me, as it felt better in hand, had a much more immersive screen, better barrery life, and key, is my main source of multi media.
