The iPhone 11 Pro Max is super heavy
The iPhone 11 Pro Max is the ultimate iPhone of 2019: it's got the biggest screen, the longest battery life and it is a true impersonation of the 'Pro' idea that Apple is pushing this year.
But while it's a big phone, we noticed that it is also extremely heavy, noticeably heavier than its predecessor, last year's iPhone XS Max.
One of the heaviest phones around!
The new 11 Pro Max weighs a hefty 7.97 ounces, or 226 grams, while the already big XS Max weighs 7.34 ounces, or 208 grams. That is a nearly 10% increase in weight, making the 11 Pro one of the heaviest big phones on the market.
Here is a quick comparison of the weight of this new iPhone against popular rivals:
Phone | Weight |
---|---|
iPhone 11 Pro Max | 226 grams (7.97 ounces) |
iPhone XS Max | 208 grams (7.34 ounces) |
Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ | 196 grams (6.91 oz) |
Samsung Galaxy S10+ | 175 grams (6.17 oz) |
Google Pixel 3 XL | 184 grams (6.49 oz) |
OnePlus 7 Pro | 206 grams (7.27 oz) |
LG G8 ThinQ | 167 grams (5.89 oz) |
Of course, there is something good about holding a big, solid phone in your hand, but the added weight can also be quite annoying if you are used to carrying your phone in your pocket.
