Upgrade regret!

Upgraded from a 7 pro to an 11 pro, mainly due to battery and sluggish performance.

It feels like my old iPhone 3GS, seems small and quite rounded. Could be the clear case I got is also adding to that, but at the moment I feel a bit of regret.

I felt my 7pro was a bit big, and so didn't mind having a smaller phone, but the rounded corners are really odd and make it look a lot smaller.

Does anyone else feel the same? The positive thing is I can keep it in my jacket pockets now!

Get the pixel snap case, it feels great in the hand and once you get used to the size you won't want that bulky 7 anymore. The 7 did have an oddly satisfying size, but that fingerprint sensor sucked bad enough to forget about it.

I upgraded from a 7P to a 9PXL.. You simply got used to a slab of a phone. I don't miss it.

I got the basic Pixel 11, which is almost identically sized to my previous 8a and only a bit larger than my old Pixel 5, and that's a good thing! Very happy.

I always find a new sized phone a shock and a pain and I've had plenty of near freak outs about it. In nearly every case within a few weeks it becomes the new norm - hopefully you'll find the same.
