Buyer's remorse on the Pro Max, I find it heavy and too large in my hand to hold comfortably. The touch response on the screen is bad, must tap multiple times before anything happens.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Silvrswan. We’re sorry to hear that the iPhone 17 Pro Max hasn’t been as comfortable or responsive as you expected. The larger size and weight can feel different in hand, and we understand how that can lead to buyer’s remorse.
Regarding the touch response, needing to tap multiple times can definitely be frustrating. That’s not the experience you should have with a new device, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention.
If you’d like to explore other iPhone models that may feel more comfortable to use or want help troubleshooting the touch responsiveness, our team is here to help you find the best path forward.
I have had the iPhone 13 for many years and recently switched to this new version, and my immediate issue is the battery. It doesn't last nearly as long as my previous phone did. It is actually becoming an issue how often I have had to recharge this new phone. My old phone would last all day, and then I would charge it every night. I have to charge this one much more frequently.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
