The 16 inch is slightly larger. I had them both for a week when switching and stacked them on top of each other to check.

oh yeah you might be right, I had skipped the donglebook models and compared to the last pre-M1 model that had magsafe and an sd card port
I had googled the size comparison before I purchased the M1 Max model and it helped move the needle for me, but I don't remember the source and we were likely comparing different models
the 16 inch model is the same physical size as the 15-inch models and they removed a lot of bezel. the screen has the same camera/sensor notch as an iphone does, which allows them to extend the screen farther.
full screen videos are letterboxed 99% of the time so the notch blends into. I don't play full screen games so can't tell if thats an issue. and it is in the OS top bar the other rest of the time.
