A recent report has clarified that the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro Max will have a thickness of 8.75mm, matching that of its predecessor, the iPhone 17 Pro Max. This contradicts earlier predictions from leaker Instant Digital, who suggested that the new model would be both thicker and heavier, with a weight exceeding 240g, making it the heaviest iPhone to date. Fellow leaker Ice Universe has provided the confirmed thickness, but has not commented on the weight of the device. While the debate continues over the dimensions, many users, including the leaker, emphasize that battery life is a more critical factor than size. Earlier reports hinted at a potential increase in battery capacity for the iPhone 18 Pro Max, while the non-Max version may see only modest improvements. This shift in focus suggests that Apple may prioritize performance enhancements over merely adjusting the physical dimensions of its flagship device.
