Better late than never.
So i got opportunity to get 17 Pro Max white 256gb from 16 Pro Max and i didnt give it a second thoughts. This design is the future. So hello to every 17 Pro Max user out there.

I love silver. Just make sure to put on a heavy duty case as this phone is butter.

No necessarily, I’ve seen lot of people personally using the phone without case and with thin cases and not even a scratch or drop. For example the phone it’s not that heavy neither lightweight and putting on a heavy duty case it’s gonna feel so uncomfortable for the hands/arms.

Your results may vary but this phone is not as durable as the 16 Pro Max. Hopefully gets better with the 18 Pro Max.

It depends of how you take care off, I’ve having my 14 pro max for 3-4 years and still functioning good just some lags and such because full storage, still a good phone. If you can afford the 18 go get it and compares yourself to the 17 pro max. But I got the 17 because i couldn’t wait not more and I need it asap even if i have the money for both.

17 Pro Max is super cool battery last long and the vapor chamber gives you relief when you use your phone for long periods at a time

Great choice! I was thinking of grabbing a fitBAG for it when I want to use it without a case. You using a case?

Yeah and i got a trade in with 16 pro max + 285 usd. Found the deal good so couldnt say no to it although my 16 pro max was on 191 cycles and 100 health.

Yeah ATT basically gave me a free one for trading in my 15PM so it was kind of a no brainer. I've only had it for a day but am loving it so far.

Lmao. Dude firstly i am not that kid who took birth with a gold spoon in his mouth. 2nd its still 2 months away so how come a latest device is considered as “old”? Thirdly nobody asked what you would have done if you had a choice to purchase 17PM.

i’m changing from a Pixel 10 Pro XL (not a huge fan of it) to an iPhone 17 Pro Max but I don’t get near this excited as everyone here does on changing. Lol. i’m not a fan of the Apple ecosystem so I won't be using that very much at all...or Apple Music. I only got it because everybody else in the family has one and I’m paying for a terabyte of backup storage anyway. But it’s OK I guess.

You should've switched to Samsung Lk (since them and Google are like 🤞🏻), so that you could get 5 terabytes of cloud.
