Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max review

05 October 2021


Sort by:

If an Android phone came out looking like that with the same specs it would be lucky to get 3 stars - classic iPhone bias at work here.

    Can you add ProRaw photos to the GSMArena Photo Compare Tool? It'd be nice to see to what degree ProRaw improves the poor rendition of intricate textures in Apple's HEIC files.

      iPhones battery have been improved alot ever since 11s. I'm wondering how cant they fit a large battery before 11s. Many complaining poor endurance on old version

        Dudenoway, 05 Oct 2021Haha jokes on you that's cuz it wa stuck in 120 hz and... moreNot just that, Apple's optimisation for battery is god tier. While maintaining blazing fast as performance, iPhone 13 can outlast SD888 phones, even on 60Hz because... software.

            Why do you think they blocked it? Heck, if you were in China, you couldn’t look up Winnie the Pooh and Xi in the same sentence. Say what you want about iPhones or the US, but they are the lesser of two evils.

                      Very significant upgrades this year, i bought both 12 Mini and 12 Pro Max, both are great and i love the Mini for everything i do but with the ProMotion i have no choice, gonna switch to 13 Pro, and probably buying 13 Pro Max too. I had ipad pro with 120hz display and found it to be lacking, just like any other 120hz phone/tablet, seems like ProMotion has finally made 120hz worth having, even made it mandatory. Adaptive framerate that follows the finger, thats so awesome! Plus i want the 1TB storage, about time they introduced it and at a lower price than expected.,

                        GsmArena helping us a lot about selecting Mobiles thank you, this time they have given reviews only on PRO MAX it would be highly appreciated if you give some reliable points for pro 6.1 models, it would help to select between 13 pro & Pro max device
                        thank you & keep it up

                          no matter what you say about how equally good or better android phones are, iPhones will always be considered as the number one option unfortunately. This is just the ugly truth.
                          The end of iPhones can only come when all the cases below become real:
                          - Celebrities and politicians stop using an iPhone as their main device
                          - People that have a lot of money won't buy an iPhone
                          - Regular people who just plan to spend a lot won't prefer an iPhone anymore
                          - Companies stop providing their employees with an iPhone and instead switch to Android phones
                          So far even if Android phones are a lot more consistent than before the reality at least where i come from(Germany) is that only the iPhone is taken seriously.
                          Don't get me wrong iPhone is indeed one of the best devices out there, however is not the only one and i feel that it has been over promoted throughout the years although there are other Android devices that might be even better.

                            I like the camera comparison writeups the most in these reviews, so I’m sad that section is absent here :(
