iPhone 16 Pro vs Pro Max After 25 Days - Don’t Be Like Me..

[@couchpanini9825]

After two years using the pro max this year I decided to buy the 16 pro. I am not going back to pro max. So much easier to reach the whole screen. I can put it in my pocket. But the best advantage is that my wrist doesn’t hurt any more.

[@topspot4834]

Same with me. I've always used big phones, back when they used to be called phablets. Had the 14 Pro Max and got the 14 Pro and love it. It's all the screen I need and I really like the lesser weight. It's perfect imo, and idk why people aren't making a bigger deal about the bezels, to me it's very noticeable.

Whenever I get a new phone I get cell helmet liquid glass, a screen protector and a case. Those three things, installed immediately, before even turning the phone on, have saved me from ever having to replace a screen or back glass, I always get top dollar for buybacks because my screen is always scratch free!! 😊

Battery was perfect for me for the longest but now I have to charge back up to make it through the day. My wife has a 13 pro max, 3 years old and 80% battery life and her phone holds battery better than mine. This was my first pro, and I loved it for the longest, but next upgrade I’ll be going back to the max.

Went from the 15 Pro to the 16PM and I love it. Had the 12PM & it was great other than battery life. I had to charge both 12PM/15 Pro 1-2x a day, throughout the day. Now I end the day with 30% left over on a single charge with the 16PM

[@quotie-youtube]

Trading in my 13 pro max at 128gb for a white 16 pro with 512gb. I really like the colour contrast on it overall. The screen on 16 pro without the notch makes a huge difference for me and feels very satisfying when holding it. I spent most of my time working during the day, so the battery life on the pro is perfect for me.

Visiting this thread after a few weeks, I just got my phone a week ago. I got the 16 PM after being on the 12. I have really small hands for a 6 foot guy so even the 12 was too big. Paired with the yellow Apple case, it honestly works somehow. I think like you said Brandon with the camera control button, the extra weight helps balance it better. The other thing I like is the improved typing experience. For some reason, the bigger letters really help with my accuracy in two handed typing. Hand gymnastics are already a thing for me, so I rarely use reachability unless reaching the top just isn’t happening. I do have it enabled, but there is a big difference with this phone. I think it’s a well balanced phone and easier to hold. Edit: out of curiosity, I took my case off and it definitely slides more, but it is way more balanced still. I don’t regret the bigger screen.

Pop sockets are still my go to for grips. I have a MagSafe plate i can remove for wireless charging and the grips are interchangeable with one base. I have never been let down by a popgrip. Also as a female I don’t feel strange using one of those cases that have a crossbody strap and look like a purse. So the pro max in pockets issue isn’t really a thing for me. I do r care if I look like a dork, I cannot stand having a phone with a cracked screen or back glass or any dents. It makes me feel like I wasted my money. As soon as I buy a new phone I order cell helmet liquid glass, a good case and a screen protector. I haven’t had to deal with screen replacement since my galaxy note 20 days. I went with the pro max 1tb, I upgraded, enormously from a 12 mini 256, the mini was too small, I had issues typing on it and I’ve never had issues typing on anything, including before we had T9 on Nokia’s 😂 I wanted the huge screen and ample space.

Probably that was the deciding factor.

This is the first year I haven’t chose the Pro Max, Battery life was terrible to start with but now it’s way better. Problems for me- Camera keeps freezing when I go to use video or take a photo for some weird reason (really annoying) Camera Control- Waste of tone for the settings and zoom, amazing for quick launch or hold to start a video! As for size compared to Pro Max- LOVE IT! So refreshing to have a phone you can comfortably use 1 hand!

[@DonTreply-dq5et]

I have upgraded from the 14 Pro Max to the 16 Pro Max. I upgraded not because I wanted to because it was cheaper than the end. My 14 was giving me battery problems. It was dying every day at 3 o’clock. If you’re thinking about upgrading, I would hold off just because for the most part it feels like the same phone. Even with the new AI features that were added yesterday. It really just feels the same. Like you’re not missing out on anything. If you’re coming from the 14 Pro Max to the 16 Pro Max, the screen feels ginormous. It feels like you’ve went from the 14 Pro Max to the 16 Pro Max Max. The battery is better than my 14 was. The camera is better. But not so much better where I feel like someone would need to upgrade. The new camera button is fun to play with. And the 14 didn’t have the action button so I’m still looking for a custom action button option that I want so right now it’s just the mute switch.

I came from the iPhone 12 Pro Max and the iPhone 14 Pro Max down to the 16 pro and I'm absolutely loving it. Every time I pick up or handle a bigger sized phone from pixel Samsung or iPhone they always feel super big and hard to hold now being used to the smaller phone. I do use a lot more battery life and have to charge my phone consistently over 100% a day but it is a sacrifice I will take for this comfortable feel in my hand. I do not normally do one handed use like you do all of the time but even then it's still a lot better. Buying a MagSafe battery pack soon.

[@Smooveee]

My battery has been lasting me a little over a day with the iPhone pro 16, I’m a heavy user. I only charge my phone to 90%

[@Soulflyy992]

Yeah I think I’ll just get a battery pack.

[@teknightrider2586]

100% Agree... I'd switched to the Pro (even in years past when there were feature difference)... because I did not want to have to use two (2) hands.

[@Ask-Ali]

Was waiting for this!

[@JasonWaden8r]

I got a Pro max myself. Coming from a 13 Mini it was a literal “Huge” upgrade. I’m happy with the purchase. Every aspect is better!

[@josephsmith594]

Great review, thanks! Really dialled into the day to day experiences that matter.

[@egtechplus]

I recently got the iPhone 16 Pro Max, it is my first time with a big phone and I got used to it pretty quickly, it is pretty light and comfortable and I love the big screen

[@CatBeyondTV]

this was incredibly helpful, thank you!

Hi Brandon, should I trade in from regular 14 Pro with 87% bh from February 2023 to 16 Pro Max or wait for the 17 Pro Max? And if the 16, should I go for the 16 Pro or 16 Pro Max? I have large hands and want better battery life but the 12pm was too big for me for 1.5 years of use, but the 14 pro has much worse battery life and it's heavier for some reason but is more compact and convenient, but the keyboard size on the pro max is more convenient for me.

I have an iPhone 12 and ordered an iPhone 16 Pro Max. Reason I did this: Never had a pro max, I usually keep my phone 4 years so for myself there's a huge increase in features. What went against the regular pro on my end was the fact that it didn't came with 256GB at the entry price like the pro max did. For yourself Brandon, if you switch every other year it doesn't mean that much, but I'm taking into account the next 4 years.

[@GonzaloHarriague]

From a 11 Pro Max would you go to 16 PM or pro?

[@Megatsyhm9918]

I’m was previous user of iPhone 11 series , for me it was good choice for upgrade to iPhone 16 series

[@robhagans]

Thanks for the video sir i went to Best Buy last night to check that I am going with the battery life champion. I do love the Torras brand cases too. Thanks for the great video

[@mikesmith1290]

Great review! My sis in law’s 12 died and needs to upgrade. I’m glad to have watched this review . I automatically recommend the pro max due to better features, but it looks like they’re basically the same, just bigger. Huge thanks for your effort in making this video!

[@Nick-ul2nu]

I was getting the pro max every year since the 11 pros but this year I went 16 pro and I don’t regret it like I thought I would

[@FeliceChiapperini]

$100 more for the larger screen is a no brainer. Love the ProMax.

[@itsAlzatron]

Went from the 14PM to the 16 Pro. The sheer comfort improvement alone justified my upgrade and my battery life is still better than the 14 PM.

[@Killadelphia_]

I had the 13 pro max & was already itching to size down. Switched to 16 pro & loving the size.

[@laurablockley1269]

Really helpful video, thank you. I’ve chosen the 16 pro and am currently on the 13 pro max. Chose the 16 pro over the max after looking at them both in store. The max was just a bit too big imo and not necessary due to having the same features. Seems like I’ve definitely made the right decision.

[@ZayTrending103]

Just ordered my iPhone 16 pro and honestly I’m pleased with my decision. Preference is the variable at hand, I’ve had the smaller iPhone models the past 4 to 5 years so Initially I intended on going pro max to have a bigger phone this year. Next upgrade I’m definitely going bigger but I’m satisfied with my pro size for now. I will say after using a certain size for years you do crave a new experience I went from the bigger iPhone to smaller and I can say I do see how after years wanting to go back is what ppl prefer vice versa ‼️

[@ItsaB3AR]

I went from a 13 Pro Max to the 16 Pro. Love the size and weight. I was sick of struggling to one hand the max.

[@AM-pu4wf]

This. Idea sealed the deal. I am going with IPhone Pro. Good to have creators confidently recommending instead of beating around the bush. Good video 👍

[@jsf-21]

It’s absolutely true, the 16 pro in 6.3. Inches is amazing! I told my brother last year that they should make the pro phone 6.3 inches and they did! This is my second phone in the white, best decision I’ve ever made! The white is so easy to live with, it looks fantastic and I never get sick of the white color it’s perfect!

[@kitslater]

Excellent commentary and advice - you've convinced me to drop the Pro Max in favour of the Pro. Thanks.

[@esmem4963]

@brandonbutch I have a question, 🙋🏻‍♀️. Which one would you recommend if battery life is a huge thing for you? I do uber, dd, gh, all of these delivery apps and need a phone that doesn’t get hot and can last me a while without having to drain the battery out. Any suggestions? Pleaseee

[@snowtorres7169]

Can't wait for my Pro to arrive! ❤ Glad I made the right choice for me.

[@gunit6815]

Do you use the 80% charge limit on the pro? Is that something that we should be using?

[@Trojan0304]

upgraded from XR to Pro for camera, didnt want extra bulk max. Got SUP Unicorn Bettle Grip case. Has camera control button. great protection

[@tambulee]

How does the size compare to the S24 Ultra?

[@ibneyearoo89]

Hey Brandon. I’m using a 12 Pro. No issues. Phone is working fine. Is it worth going on the 16 Pro?

[@Soulflyy992]

I think so! Depending on your battery life
