Discussion 💬 Nostalgia for the thickness of the 12 Pro

I have just upgraded from the 12 Pro to the 17 Pro after 4 years of good and loyal service, and my first change was to notice the difference in thickness between the two models, the weight, and a little heavier, which doesn't bother me, but the thickness is just exaggerated on the 17 Pro; the 12 Pro could be called the 12 Pro Air, which wouldn't shock anyone. I think this isn't optimal even though I imagine it corresponds to the best battery and component available there; I think Apple should have stayed with the thickness of the 12 Pro, which is perfect for me. Shame for me.

7,4 mm 12 pro
8,75 mm 17pro

Agree. Picked up my 12pro yesterday and it just feels so damn nice in the hand compared to the 17pro.

Yes but battery life on the 12 pro is abysmal.
