The iPhone XS Max has a big, brilliant display and a little more battery life than the XS. It benefits from the improvements that the XS also has: faster speeds, some durability and water resistance improvements, better camera and dual-SIM support
It's so, so, so expensive. If the iPhone Plus models were too big for your hands, this one will be, too
The supersize iPhone XS Max crams a 6.5-inch screen and all of the same great features of the iPhone XS into a Plus-sized body -- but it's not as huge a leap up as you might think...

Despite the fairly large price difference, the iPhone XR and XS Max aren't hugely different.Splashing out on the Max will get you a bigger screen which has OLED tech and a higher resolution and a second telephoto camera on the back. Smaller things include...

The iPhone XS Max is very expensive but a very desirable phone. It has the biggest screen ever on an iPhone with a slim design that is physically smaller than the overall size of the iPhone 8 Plus.But if you aren't bothered about animoji and Face ID and w...

Now that the iPhone X is no longer sold by Apple it's unlikely that anyone is attempting to decide between the iPhone X and XS Max, other than to determine whether it would be a good update from the iPhone X.If you are the kind of person who wants to own...
Apple has made it easy for customers to pick up the iPhone they really want this year. There are no trade-offs with cameras or other features, as both units are identical except for size of chassis and screen. True, you get a bit more battery life with th...

If you like a big-screen phone, you probably don't need to look elsewhere. This phone is the same size as the iPhone 8 Plus (actually, it's a whisker thicker but slightly shorter and less wide) and around the same weight. But it has a display that's a fu...

Big and beautiful screen, Good battery life, Improved camera
Two-handed device, Even more expensive
The iPhone XS Max appears to be the perfect upgrade for owners of iPhone Plus who prefer a large form factor with a big screen and a bigger battery. It packs in all the top-end features of the smaller model, but really turbocharges them in the hand...

Huge 6.5-inch display, New A12 Bionic processor, Same design as iPhone X, 512GB version
Size, Expensive
There is no denying that the iPhone XS Max is a monster device with a screen that screams out at you. This is the phone that answers all those who questioned why the iPhone X was so small and reserved. The Max is here and it's pushing the Plus experience...
