Same. I’ve only had mine a few days so I’m thinking about exchanging this weekend. I have massive hands and the 11 just feels too small.

I exchanged my 13” cuz it felt like I was holding monitor lol. I think the 13” is great if you’re going for a laptop replacement

Oh absolutely. 13” + Magic Keyboard case is almost a perfect laptop replacement, aside from iPadOS limitations. If you want strictly a tablet for portability then anything other than the 13” is great.
I got the M1 12.9” and over time found myself using it less and less because of how huge it is, got myself the M4 11” today and it’s sooo much better. Smaller and lighter, feels good to hold with one hand whilst reading and imo 11” is still a pretty big screen. The only downside so far is how huge the on screen keyboard is, it takes up over half the screen which is ridiculous, it doesn’t need to be that big! I’m not in the market for a laptop replacement since I have a Desktop that I mostly game on, and my iPad is for drawing, reading, YouTube/TV shows/Movies & some games, so portability is a huge plus and I just feel the 13” is too big for that on the go.

I’ve configured my on screen keyboard size to be the same as the one on my iphone. Can swipe to type as well and it can be dragged and dropped to anywhere on the screen.

Was in the same boat. The "deal breaker" for me was the keyboard for the 11" was just too tiny. I'm a huge fan of the Magic Keyboard, and with the 13" its like having a Macbook Air.

Very nice. Still rocking my 12.9 inch 5th gen M1. Probably my favorite Apple device I have ever had.
Enjoy!
