To each their own. I get migraines, so as long as I feel like my phone fits securely in a front pocket, that's where I put it. I'll put it in my purse when I need to, but having extra weight on my neck can make my migraines worse. Also, I make and answer phone calls every day, and holding an oversized phone up to my ear for any length of time would be really uncomfortable for my relatively small hands. Having to wear headphones or earbuds every time I use the phone for that purpose isn't a great option for me, either. I do like the features of the Pro iPhones, though, so the smaller 14 Pro was a good compromise for me in terms of size and battery, as the 16 Pro should be. The Pro Max models will probably always have the best battery, but it sounds like the 16 Pro battery should be noticeably better than that in the 14 Pro, which is already pretty good. Jessica

I never feel as if my phone is safe and could easily fall out. I've got some great shoulder bags that work very nicely that can hold my phone just fine. I also got used to holding my 13 pro max in my hand if needed. However, with my bluetooth keyboard, I don't usually need to hold my phone. Personally I'd never let size be a factor in not purchasing an iPhone. Ff a max phone has all the features you want, then get it, and to heck with the size of the phone. Good luck.

I like the way my 13 Mini fits in my pocket better than the standard sized iPhone 12 I had before did. And I also plan to hold on to it as long as I possibly can. True, these smaller phones have smaller batteries, but for what I use mine for, my battery life is just fine. One might be forgiven for thinking that a company valued at over 3 trillion dollars could give us more than, what? four or five choices of iPhone, and make one of them smaller, but one would apparently be mistaken about that. Although, from what I have read, as Joshua pointed out, the 13 Mini did not sell great, it does have a pretty loyal fan base; and Apple could certainly afford to produce a greater variety of iPhones than they do. How many choices of phones do Android users get? I really have no idea, but it is certainly a lot more than four or five.

I love the size of my SE and I'm disappointed to learn that the new one will be about the size of an iPhone 14. I really want a smaller phone and will hold onto this one as long as it will update. I don't understand the emphasis on these huge phones I get that sided folks like a larger screen, but there should be something available for those of us with smaller hands who like the smaller form factor.

There are rumours about an iPhone 17 Air or iPhone 17 Slim or whatever Apple will call it a year from now, but whether this phone will actually be much smaller or simply a thinner phone nobody knows.
