For the millionth time, what is the point of a post like this? You gave zero details, and you may as well be asking everyone to pick your favorite color for you. Can't you make a decision on your own?

u/urlookinglive 20h ago

It's not bothering me, it's more that an adult can't make a decision on his own and clogs up reddit with a pointless post. Since you have already been to an apple store, tell us what would make the decision FOR you based on hundreds of random redditors?

For fuck’s sake with these God fucking idiots unable to make a decision on their own as if they were little children.

If possible, go to an Apple store to see and hold them.

I have one of each. The US 18 Pro has the Apple C2 modem, while the 18 Pro Max has the problematic (for AT&T) Qualcomm x50M modem, first unveiled in Feb 2024. The 18 Pro is easy to find, while the Pro Max is in very short supply.

No need for discussion. You can go in store and see how both feel size-wise and then it is simply about battery and your budget.

You can do this on your own, I promise!

Maybe ask another subreddit if you should walk with your left foot first or the right one.

u/kzt79 19h ago

Get whatever you want. The specs are readily available and there are endless reviews here, on YouTube and elsewhere.

if you really value battery life as a priority and don't mind the extra weight, then go with a Pro Max

Otherwise, Pro

u/Jumpy_Access8523 20h ago

i have used 14 pro max for 4 years now

u/Right-Grapefruit-400 20h ago

what are your requirements? do you need a standard sized phone or do you need a bigger one? do you need a bigger battery or are you satisfied with a smaller one? what is your budget like? will getting the 18 pro max hurt your wallet a little or not? do you need more storage and can afford it? you need to let us know what you want and what’s your budget like in order for us to suggest which one you should get.

u/Jumpy_Access8523 19h ago

well budget isn’t the issue. my real confusion is cauz i m used to big screen and more weight as i’ve been using 14pm since 4 years low

u/Right-Grapefruit-400 19h ago

then i guess you know your answer already — get the 18 Pro Max love! enjoyyy

u/atothemod 19h ago

I had the same phone before and let me tell you, you won’t be satisfied with the smaller display and battery. The battery on 18 pro is better but nowhere near pro max. Ask me how I know, I returned my 18 pro and got the 18 pro max

u/gdhhorn iPhone 18 Pro 20h ago

If you’re happy to keep using a large screen, get the PM; otherwise get the P. It really shouldn’t be this difficult.

Loving the 18 Pro after a 17 Pro Max.

u/samirbinballin iPhone 18 Pro Max - Burgundy 18h ago

Pro Max it’s only $100 more and it’s way better for battery life and media consumption.

u/Capable-Research-780 17h ago

Silver 18 Pro for me. But honestly, get whatever your gut tells you. I was dead set on a Pro Max this year, but something kept telling me I wanted the Pro, so I did just that 🤩

u/PartyTraining5491 20h ago

Like my wife says, the bigger the better

u/Successful-Map6183 20h ago

Pro max baby go big or go home!

u/Upstairs-Tea6607 20h ago

GO WITH THE 18 PRO MAX, 100%.

If reading this made you feel relieved, go for it, If it made you feel disappointed, you have your answer.

Not if you’re a weakling, bunch of complaints from fragile folks that it’s too heavy

u/Upstairs-Tea6607 20h ago

Go for it then! Your heart had already chosen.
