Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max Review – Is it Worth the Price?
Design Features
The design of the phone is really good. It has a shiny back, not glass, but it looks like one, so you can clean it easily. It’s huge and heavy, though. There are three cameras vertically placed in the center on the front side with a flash underneath, speaker on top, and lock button on the right side, which also works as an ON/OFF switch.
There is just one camera horizontally placed at the top left corner with a flash beside it on the backside. Besides, iPhone Pro Max comes in three colors: space gray, silver, and gold.
iPhone Pro Max is water-resistant, so you can carry it to the beach or where there is a risk of dropping it into the water without worrying this phone will get damaged. The iPhone also has an option to fast charge, so using an iPhone charger for one hour, you can gain 50 percent battery life.
Display
Apple’s latest iPhone has a spectacular 6.5 inches display that simply looks amazing no matter what you do on the screen – watching movies, playing games, or just browsing the internet – everything just looks great! iPhone uses OLED technology which means each pixel lights up individually, so its response time goes down to 0. So basically, when your finger touches a button, it lights up immediately under your finger. iPhone has durable glass, which is oleophobic, meaning it will hardly get fingerprint marks. This iPhone’s screen features a 120Hz refresh rate. When you are playing games or using apps with animations, this iPhone will show them in slow motion so your eyes won’t notice any difference between real-time and iPhone display time.
Back camera
iPhone Pro Max has three cameras, one primary wide-angle camera at the backside with two additional lenses for zooming in the picture without losing quality because these additional lenses work digitally, not optically like many other phones have, so the image stays clear even if you zoom in twice or more times. These short zooms are called 2x and 5x digital zooming. The iPhone camera has 12 megapixels, so you can expect iPhone to take the best pictures on the market with clear definition and sharp edges. iPhone Pro Max also has two LED flashlights located on both sides of the primary camera: one on the right side and the second just below it.
Front Camera
This phone has a 12MP TrueDepth front camera. iPhone has a depth sensor that measures the depth of the image and adjusts iPhone’s lighting and focus accordingly. iPhone can also blur its background just like DSLR cameras do, so it makes your pictures look much better than iPhone photos did before. iPhone uses retina flash, which means iPhone uses its TrueDepth camera to measure how far you are from the phone. Iphone 13 Pro Max adjusts its Flashlight intensity according to that information, so iPhone’s lighting looks best for any distance from iPhone.
Sound
iPhone Pro Max earpiece speaker is very loud and clear for calls or listening to songs while playing games or watching YouTube videos. The speaker at the bottom side of the iPhone is also very loud but not as clear as the earpiece speaker, but still more than enough to play games without missing any sound effects because speakers are stereo positioned in iPhone’s body like many other iPhone versions have built-in speakers on both sides of iPhone.
Its stereo sound speakers are placed at the bottom of the iPhone, one on each side, so iPhone gives you a full surround audio experience. iPhone also supports Dolby Atmos audio technology, which makes your gaming and video watching experience more realistic by adding different sounds from all around you. iPhone uses Stereo Recording technology which means it records both sides of your conversation or game playing, no matter how far away a second person is like other phones do. The first phone with a four-microphone array was the iPhone 7 Plus, released in 2016. New iPhones continue this tradition but now use 4 microphones instead of two
Charging
iPhone Pro Max uses fast charging, so it will not take long to charge iPhone’s battery from 0% to 100%. Just using an iPhone charger for one hour, you can get 50 percent battery life which means the iPhone charges very quickly. iPhone has a huge battery with 4000 mAh, but even with such a big capacity, iPhone can run up to 2 days continuously on a single charge! iPhone has something called power-saving mode, which reduces the number of gestures and animations. In contrast, this mode reduces CPU load and extends your phone’s battery life by extra hours, depending on how much you use your iDevice.
Fingerprint scanner
Touch ID is faster than iPhone 8 Plus, but iPhone 11 Pro would be even faster. iPhone also has a face-scanning feature that is not as fast as Touch ID but way more accurate than any other iPhone in the past had access to.
iPhone 13 Pro Max Performance
The iPhone 13 Pro Max is ridiculously quick, thanks to Apple’s latest A15 Bionic chipset. iPhone has a 6-core processor, which means iPhone has two separate 4-core processors. iPhone’s primary chip is A15 Bionic, which makes iPhone the best phone to play games with beautiful graphics. iPhone 13 Pro Max also supports industry-standard Vulkan API for iPhone virtual reality gaming and apps that need speed.
Apple GPU
The integrated graphics performance of the A11 Bionic was impressive, but it’s even better on iPhone 13 Pro Max thanks to the improved Apple GPU embedded in the A15 Bionic. There are three cores in this version of the PowerVR GT7600 Plus GPU. While it won’t match current discrete mobile GPUs, its performance approaches Qualcomm’s Adren 630 found in Snapdragon 845.
WiFi
iPhone 13 Pro Max’s WiFi is fast, and iPhone also supports 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac with 2×2 MIMO. Therefore, it can download files from the Internet at speeds up to 866 Mbps. This is as much as 100 times faster than the average old-school iPhone. Moreover, the iPhone 13 Pro Max has Dual-Band WiFi support which means it can connect to two wireless routers or access points at once, either one as the main one and another for backup in case your main connection fails temporarily until iPhone disconnects from the secondary network automatically when iPhone tries connecting to the primary router again after it failed initially.
Bluetooth 5
iPhone Bluetooth 4.2 only supports pairing with a single device at a time. But iPhone Bluetooth 5.0 supports pairing with up to 8 devices at once. Bluetooth 5 can also connect to two audio devices at the same time, like iPhone and Apple Watch or iPhone and AirPods. iPhone 13 Pro Max is also capable of streaming audio to two wireless speakers or headphones simultaneously
iPhone 13 Pro Max Review: Price
The iPhone 13 Max starts at 749 USD for the 64GB version and 999 USD for the 256GB version. iPhone 13 Pro Max starts at 1099 for 64GB, 1449 for 256GB and 1649 USD for 512GB version. iPhone 13 Pro max 512 GB costs just 50 dollars more than iPhone XS with the same storage capacity, so this phone is worth every dollar! It’s the best iPhone ever made by Apple!
Charger
SIM ejector tool & USB-C cable & power brick. iPhone also comes with iPhone original headset, which is really nice for listening to songs or making calls, as well as iPhone original charger brick and iPhone-to-USB-C adapter.
Color options:
iPhone 13 Pro Max comes in three colors: Black, white and red. All of them look just amazing! Everyone has their own personal taste, so you will choose the color that best fits your style, but everyone can agree all these three colors look phenomenal on a premium iPhone! iPhone’s front side always was black since iPhone 5 back in 2012, so it’s kind of a tradition to have black iPhones available at stores – same goes with gold color choice because last two years, Apple released only one colored iPhone 8 & X series phones – iPhone XR. iPhone 13 Pro Max is iPhone’s first phone with the red color option, and it looks really good! This iPhone is, undoubtedly, Apple’s best-looking smartphone ever!
