12 feels better to me to hold than my 11 pro, easier to pick up and much lighter.

It is so nice and light!

Funny, that's one thing I am not looking for is the "phone to be light". I expect due to quality materials like Stainless Steel to be holding a phone that feels a bit heavy and solid.

Received my 12 Pro yesterday and I like the square edges. The phone feels solid in my hands and has quality written all over it.

I always liked my older iPhone 5 model and was one of my favorite models for its forum factor. I don’t see me taking mine back any time soon.

Thought you had a problem with heavy phones? From memory.

I have an issue with the larger devices like the MAX, I can’t hold them in my hand for a long period of time anymore and they are not easily carried in my front pocket.

That’s one reason why I went back to the Pro size, so I could carry it in my front pocket.

For me personally, since I have always been a two handed user, of a smartphone, I prefer the Max sized devices.
Even in my BlackBerry days, I always used two hands. I owned a BlackBerry Pearl for all of 2 days, before I had to get rid of it for a Curve...

Took me a while about four Months until I got fully use to my 11 Pro Max after being a small device guy

I would have jumped on the 12 Mini back in the day but now use my Pro Max as my primary device to interact with the Cyber world since my win laptop died. It does it all from Banking to managing my daily life. iMovie presentations to key communications during my Day to Day.

Impossible to go smaller as the extra screen real-estate gives you the big screen advantage over small devices.

If I was to upgrade it would definitely be the 12 Pro Max with an extra 6.7 inch display
