The editors didn't like
Static 60Hz display refresh on a $1099 phone
Blocky and heavy compared to its peers
Less comfortable to hold
Expensive $599 body repair if you crack the rear
No power adapter in the box
Comparatively slow charging even if you buy the new 20W brick
Apple ProRAW is a letdown if you know better
The Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max is a solid tool. And as far as the camera goes
That's really all it is. It's not overall a million times better than dedicated cameras. Apple touts this
But that's not the case. I
No charger or headphones in the box
No high refresh rate screen
IOS needs better file management
We miss TouchID as FaceID does not work with a mask on
The new camera offers the same quality as the old one
Few meaningful upgrades over iPhone 11 Pro M
Camera improvements are minimal
Simple native camera app
Handling a little unwieldy for some
Charging adapter / headphones not included in the box
Drab colors
Frustrating MagSafe
Glass back
Only 60Hz screen
No power brick
No external storage
60Hz Display
Expensive starting price
Charger not included
Charger sold separately
A bit heavy and bulky
No 120Hz display
Potentially too big and too heavy for some
IOS could make better use of the massive screen
Very close to being too big
60Hz screen behind competition at this price
I was required to think about 5G
Short warranty
Charger must be purchased separately
Expensive repair costs
Display only 60 Hz
PWM flickering
Way too big for some
Cameras can be temperamental
Summary
Apple's iPhone 12 Pro Max has a lot in common with its smaller sibling. Think
A new design
Expansive 5G network support and amazing performance
It might actually be a little too much big to handle, Software doesn't take advantage of larger screen, Obvious Advantages
Even in a world where a lot of Australians weren't enduring a pandemic/recession combo meal, the iPhone 12 Pro Max feels difficult to recommend.Aside from the obvious hardware-related benefits attached to the larger form-factor, it doesn't really bring al...

Huge, beautiful screen, Surprisingly capable speakers, Excellent sound via headphones,
Marginal gains over iPhone 12, No bundled charger,
The iPhone 12 Pro Max is the best phone that Apple has ever made, with the biggest screen, the best speakers, the best camera and the biggest battery. But many of its upgrades over the iPhone 12 are minimal, and the fact that the standard iPhone now has a...
Best camera phone to date, Premium, elegant design, Amazing performance, Superb battery life, Beautiful display
Charging and MagSafe are a mess, iOS underutilises big screen, Display tops out at 60Hz, Heavy, unwieldy form, Price
There's a certain assumption that those considering buying an iPhone 12 Pro Max already know that along with being the best and brightest Apple can muster in a smartphone, it also comes with a unique set of compromises and niche features.It's an undeniabl...

very long battery, top performance, improved lowlight camera, longer optical zoom, portraits with night mode, water resistant, wireless charging, MagSafe, Face ID, fantastic screen, 5G, long software support
no USBC, need your own charger, enormous, super heavy, very expensive
The iPhone 12 Pro Max is the most feature-rich Apple smartphone this year, but comes at a significant price – both monetary and physically.It sits firmly in the superphone bracket alongside the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and the OnePlus 8 Pro, so big th...
Striking new design, Excellent quality screen, One of the best phone cameras going, Actual multi-day battery life,
Flat design doesn't suit the size as much as the 12 Pro, Camera only marginally stronger than other iPhone 12 models, Lacks a high refresh-rate screen,
The iPhone 12 Pro Max is truly excellent, if you can stomach its size. It offers excellent battery life, a marginally better camera than the smaller Pro, and a screen that's a pleasure to use for watching, reading and playing.ProsStriking new designExcell...
Incredible camera, Very powerful, Gorgeous but tough design
Very large, Battery life isn't hugely impressive, Disappointing zoom
When you're spending over £1,000 on a phone, discovering that anything isn't as good as it was on the previous model is going to be a little disappointing, especially as the phone itself is the largest Apple has ever built.And there are other things that...
Big screen, Extra battery life, Additional camera enhancements
Uncomfortable to hold, Screen only 60Hz, Charging the larger battery takes time
When we tested the iPhone 12 Pro, we recommended not buying until we saw what the max model could deliver. Now we know: and the answer is that it can deliver significantly more.The iPhone 12 Pro had few contrasts compared to the iPhone 12, but it is a com...
