Yep, the nosegear on the max has been lengthened. The 737NG has been stretched so much it now has to be flown much faster than required on approach to give a margin for the tail to not scrape. Now the Max has a 2 position tail scraper and a much higher potential for 3 point landings or worse.

Now there is nose gear protection logic incorporated thanks to the larger engines and required clearance for those big fancy motors.

And now those big fancy motors take much longer to start, stabilize, and if the generators are turned on too quickly, the engine shuts down and requires a borescope.

Oh and if you thought you struggled getting down from altitude and making crossing restrictions with the NG, the max is much cleaner and has multiple engine idle speeds and requires an earlier descent or you will basically always be descending with speed brakes out.
