I’m in the same boat, I’ve had the Pro Max but it’s just too cumbersome for me. With the slight size bump on both models it solidified my choice to get the Pro, 6.3” seems like the sweet spot. That said if I was a lady who walks around with a purse I’d go with the Pro Max all day! I just don’t have the pocket space to comfortably walk around with a tablet in my pocket.

I chose 16 pro 256gb in black. I’ve had a few pro maxes , but will never again. They’re just too big, but that’s just my opinion. One thing I do miss about the pro maxes is the battery life. Especially the 15 pro’s battery life isn’t great. Hoping the 16 pro’s battery will be better as announced.

Versus the iPhone 15 the pro iPhone 16 pro has quite a few improvements: 20% longer battery life than the 15 pro; 6.3" screen rather than 6.1" screen; new processor 20% faster (and uses 20% less energy); camera control with half press to focus and slide to zoom (love it); improved camera (inc x5 optical zoom rather than x3, 48MP ultra wide rather than 12MP ultra wide lens, 48MP macro photography...); improved video (including 4k Dolby vision 120fps, improved 4 mic array...); faster wireless charging speed; wifi 7 rather than wifi 6. And still got FaceID (love it- my s23 ultra fps was useless when I wore a glove or it was raining and even Samsung said not to rely on the Samsung face recognition as it was insecure). 6-7 years Operating system and security upgrades. I'm coming from an iPhone 13 pro (also use android) and it's a no brainer upgrade. I don't know anyone who upgrades their iPhone every year (help save the planet and your pocket!) so the comments about lack of change are way off- and seem to be repeated by the same people- either seeking to undermine US brands for some reason (Apple did take a notable stand against Putin) or competitors from other countries.
