Are these super skinny jeans? I’m trying to visualize how a phone would tear your pocket.

Not particularly. It’s just a very big phone.

  • Not to be flippant but next time don’t buy the Max. I don’t know how to reconcile “I wish my phone were smaller” with “I buy the biggest phone”.

    Apple is doubtless doing the same kind of “they say they want this but they buy that” calculation that automobile manufacturers are doing. “People say they want fuel efficient cars but they actually buy SUVs And giant trucks.”

      Maybe "I want my battery life to be the longest available" dominates the decision.

    • In this case I was gifted the Max; I didn't buy it myself. The next phone I purchase will probably be an iPhone 16 or 16e as those are the smallest "new" phones.
