A new survey emerges shifting the balance towards having larger iPhonesby chance It coincides with Apple’s launch of the new, larger iPhone 16sSize matters now; research from SellCell in the US shows that a majority want a bigger iPhone. While not a huge number, 2,000 people were surveyed, half male, half female. An indication that the iPhone’s large size is starting to gain importance.

iPhone 16 Pro Max and iPhone 16 Plus will be the most popular models due to their size

SellCell iPhone Size Survey for Men and Women

Almost 55% of survey respondents said they wanted their iPhones to be bigger62.1% were men, 47.8% were women. The truth is that the size of our hands is, on average, too big to use with one hand, compared to the size of Apple’s largest iPhone, which is currently 6.7 inches.

The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will have a slight increase in size. According to the latest rumors; iPhone 16 Pro to have 6.3-inch display, up from 6.1 inchesMeanwhile iPhone 16 Pro Max will expand from 6.7 inches to 6.9 inchesIt will be the largest iPhone size in its history, with 6.1 inches being exclusive to the iPhone 16. The 6.7-inch size will be the responsibility of the iPhone 16 Plus, and this could be the last launch with the same name to move on to a new concept, the iPhone Slim.

Mockups of the iPhone 16 series with new dimensions

If we look at the reality of what has happened in iPhone sales in recent years, the iPhone mini failed and was followed by the Plus models. That’s true Some users like small screens but it is a fact that compromising battery will make you think twice or more. On the other hand, having a larger screen is not a guarantee. The iPhone 16 Plus could confirm this, as its predecessors did not have very good sales chances. Users want a big screen on a truly premium device.

Survey participants eagerly await iPhone 16, but not Apple Intelligence

Almost 62% of survey respondents expect iPhone 16 series to be updated in SeptemberThis fact may not be as surprising as it seems. 82% of survey respondents say they don’t care about Apple Intelligence not being available at the launch of the new iPhone.

Apple to increase iPhone screen size for first time in 4 years

Last interesting point from the SellCell research: Users are largely upgrading for a better design that aims to improve overheating issues. A very positive point that could be taken away more than applause if Apple addressed this issue completely. It is incredible how many complaints you can find on internet forums like Reddit, on Google, or on Apple’s own forum about temperature and heating issues from the iPhone 14 Pro to the latest iPhone 15 Pro.
