As rumours swirl about Apple’s next flagship iPhone, one detail has caught the attention of everyone: the iPhone 16 Pro Max is expected to feature a colossal 6.9-inch display, dwarfing even its already-sizeable predecessor.
While some may balk at the idea of a phone that large, a recent analysis by PhoneArena makes a compelling case for embracing the gigantic screen.
Let’s get the obvious stuff out of the way. For those who love consuming media on their phones, a larger display can be a game-changer.
Watching your favourite shows or movies with a cinematic viewing experience, all in the palm of your hand.
Doesn’t take a genius to figure that you are going to love it.
The increased real estate means less squinting and scrolling, allowing you to properly immer yourself fully in the content.
And for multitaskers juggling social media, note-taking, and web browsing, that extra screen space can be a productivity powerhouse.
Here’s the kicker though.
The benefits of a massive display go beyond mere convenience.
PhoneArena points out that a larger phone can accommodate a more capacious battery, addressing one of the most common pain points for smartphone users.
With the iPhone 16 Pro Max rumoured to pack a 4,676 mAh battery (a 5% increase over its predecessor), you may be able to go for days without needing a recharge.
Of course, the elephant in the room (or rather, the whale in your pocket) is the question of portability.
How can a phone that massive be practical for everyday use?
PhoneArena argues that modern smartphones have already outgrown most pockets, rendering the portability concern somewhat moot.
Furthermore, with Apple’s expertise in material engineering and weight optimization, the iPhone 16 Pro Max may not feel as cumbersome as its size suggests.
At the end of the day, the decision between a compact or gargantuan smartphone boils down to personal preference.
Some will undoubtedly appreciate the one-handed ease of a smaller device, while others will relish the immersive experience and extended battery life of a larger model.
But for those willing to embrace the “go big or go home” philosophy, the iPhone 16 Pro Max could be the ultimate mobile companion.
So, as you ponder your next smartphone upgrade, keep an open mind about the benefits of a massive display. After all, in the world of tech, sometimes bigger really is better.

The larger display enhances media viewing and multitasking, providing more screen space for activities and potentially improving productivity.
The increased size allows for a larger battery, possibly 4,676 mAh, which could significantly extend the device’s battery life compared to previous models.
While concerns about portability exist due to its size, advancements in material engineering may help the device remain manageable and comfortable to use.
The main drawback could be reduced portability and comfort, especially for users who prefer using their phone with one hand or carrying it in smaller pockets.
While no specific release date is provided, such devices are typically unveiled during Apple’s annual September events.
