Marketing gimmick, later see Zack - JerryRigEverything say again this "glass is glass, glass will still scratch at a level 6 on the Mohs hardness scale and deeper grooves at a level 7"

RM 10 quality is bad. tongue.gif Anyway, I will still use one screen protector la.

But I'm always a Pro Max user, won't consider anything lower than that.

Used to the screen size very hard to transition back. I felt that back then from note 4 to s5.

But now even normal iPhone so big (I kaki iPhone mini and kaki 1 hand use phone). I used 16 pro max 2 weeks felt it was too big and heavy, and take up a lot of space in my jeans pocket. Carrying a brick around. Very sad they don’t want to do mini anymore.

If they have a mini, I might get it for the form factor 😂🫢 but not worth it la, cause battery smaller you charge more, more cycles it degrade the battery faster.

Yes, difficult to transition back. Screen is one factor but the battery life is also important for me. Pro series also has better specs so it’s hard for me to get the vanilla version.

What specs matters to you that makes pro the right fit:
cameras on pro? Or the 120hz screen you can’t go non pro?

OLED was the biggest game changer for vanilla. Otherwise performance was not such a big issue for me due to my usage pattern. That’s why I’m going to try and skip this (which I will fail halfway due to backside itchy). My upgrade cycle was 3 years being the longest. Prior to iPhone 7 I upgrade every year.

I tried 16 PM because the allure of the Ti frame. Which is very nice and I do like it, just not ergonomic due to weight. 120hz didn’t do anything for my use case.

Cameras mainly as I use a lot for photography and of course the 120Hz screen now.

Yes, I don't even use the camera button on my 16 Pro Max and add another one on 17 Pro Max, seriously?

anyone switched from pro max to pro?

how does the downsizing feel?

pro max too heavy for me nowadays, after more than 6 years of using this size.. feel like downsizing, but when i hold my wife's iphone 15, it feels so small.

the one in the black case is consistent with the leak renders

look at the placement of the flash and LIDAR
