I would prefer my phone to be operable by one hand.

But you can't fit as many ads and/or cookie banners on a smaller screen. The tech treadmill requires those things, so here we are.

The most annoying thing about handling my 12 Pro Max one-handed is the weight, with thickness being 2nd, and screen size being a distant 3rd.

I went from someone who had to have the latest phone on pre-order to someone who doesn't bother: this is the first time I'm considering a new phone release in years. I suspect many other people are in the same boat.

I'm just not sure if I'll miss 3 cameras too much.

I have an iPhone 16 pro max, I’m five four with I assume smaller than average hands for a male and I have no problem using my iPhone one handed

Thats what Steve always wanted

It's a UI problem not an hardware one imo. Pretty much when iPhone came out UI research flattened and everything seems so standardized now, I only see gimmick stuff like liquid glass. For example, I don't see why a submit button cannot float near the thumb on the right or left side of the bottom of the device(could predict by checking device orientation)

I cannot totally agree. From my experience, if the phone is wider than ~68mm, I cannot hold it firmly in my hand and operate it. The UI comes after that, for how far I can reach.
