Pro vs Pro XL

themuffin

Trying to see what most people here prefer, the smaller or bigger screen. Why?

themuffin more about one hand use

Big screen probably won't fit in a regular-sized jeans pocket ;(

Pro, the XL version is to big for my pocket

ed25519 Do you have the XL, and if so, anything else you dislike about it?

I have a P7. Just ordered a 9ProXL , older eyes prefer more screen and higher nits.

Plus a 40% off cyber Monday deal for 256GB model on Amazon kinda sealed the deal for me.

Frostily7047 in my case xl costed 30 euros less than pro 😁

Its hard enough to screen type on a bigger screen. Little screen would be downright intolerable.

I prefer the Pro. The smaller screen means less hand acrobatics and finger strain. I swapped from an iPhone 15 Pro Max, and the P10 Pro is way more comfortable to use.

spacecdt Anything you miss from the Pro Max?

themuffin Honestly, no lol I guess Apple Wallet was nice, but I really don't mind losing it. I had a busted P8 for a few months that I got for free from a friend, and I definitely missed having a good camera when I was using it. Luckily, I don't have that problem anymore since the P10 Pro camera looks better than the iPhone 15 Pro Max imo. Battery life on the P10 Pro also feels heeps better than what I got on the P8 and slightly better than the iPhone.

I had a 9 Pro XL and now own a 10 Pro. The 9 Pro XL was way too large, as are OnePlus devices (which I know are insecure and won't be supported).
I miss my Pixel 3's compact size. I still have my P3, but won't daily drive it. Keeping it barely used is a rite of passage for me. Yet my prior LG G4 (a horrible phone) had the same 5.5" screen size and at the time I thought it was too big.

Looking for more opinions on this.

I have no issue with fitting in pockets nor using it one handed but I am make with x large hands. Female clothes can have much smaller pockets and regardless of sex hand size varies greatly as do clothing. Why not go in a shop and try it out for yourself as no one can answer this for you it's personal pref and based on physical dimensions.

I find the XL too big, and since Pixel 9 series you can get the full camera setup (wide, main tele) with a 6.3-inch display - for me personally that's the perfect combination.

I like largest screen possible. I have 9 Pro XL with
"Poetic Guardian Mag Pro" case on it. Case is on beefy side. And also use a "Mag Safe Pop Socket" with a strong Magnet attached on end of Pop Socket so I can stick the phone to any steel surface. So it really is quite thick.

If there was a 9 Pro XXL I would have gotten that.

No issue fitting in my pocket or one hand use.

They don't even have to make it any taller, in fact, it would be better if they do NOT make it any taller. But absolutely make it wide. Half an inch wider would be so sweet!

secrec I would like it taller as well. Mabey so they could put the hole punch camera in a bezel instead. Then the screen could be un tainted.
