We’re down to the final leaks and rumours so enjoy them while they last. Once again, we will be talking about the iPhone Xs Max, which is said to be the largest iPhone Apple has ever launched so far, but only if we will be talking about the screen. However, it looks as if Apple is shifting away from its ‘thin and light’ smartphone design philosophy because apart from being the largest iPhone, the iPhone Xs Max is also said to be the heaviest one produced by the tech giant.

According to the latest rumour, the iPhone Xs Max is going to be even heavier than the iPhone 8 Plus, which weighs in at 7.13 ounces. With the iPhone Xs Max’s weight increase, what could the reasoning behind it, especially when the upcoming flagship is said to sport the same footprint as that of the iPhone 8 Plus? The answer: change of materials. The difference in weight is said to show when the iPhone Xs Max will utilize stainless steel instead of aluminium for the enclosure band.
