Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max Review

The iPhone 16 Pro Max is undoubtedly Apple's best iPhone to date, but don't buy it for Apple Intelligence.

Exceptional battery life ; Larger screen with impossibly thin bezels ; Top-end processing power ; Impressive video quality

Apple Intelligence isn’t that smart or widely available ; Camera Control is awkward to use ; Very expensive

The iPhone 16 Pro Max is undoubtedly the most capable iPhone to date, not only boosting the power with the A18 Pro but bringing small, yet meaningful, upgrades including impossibly thin bezels, an upgraded camera setup and most importantly of all,...

Hands on: iPhone 16 Pro Max review – Small changes add up to an AI and Camera Control revolution

More power, Apple Intelligence, and a very nifty control

Camera Control is worth the space ; Bigger screen ; Apple Intelligence ; More power

Zoom hasn't changed. ; The design didn't change

Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max review: even pro-ier and max-ier

A superior snapper, more raw power and a slightly larger display are this year's main iPhone 16 Pro Max goodies

Ludicrously powerful ; Impressive new camera smarts ; Outstanding battery life

Unfinished software ; Now even bigger and bulkier ; Boring colours

Not an update that makes you want to throw a party, but this flagship’s power, camera and battery life are so good it’s hard to imagine anyone not being quietly impressed.

Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max review: More than meets the eye

The iPhone 16 Pro Max elevates Apple's flagship experience with smarter AI, a refined design and camera upgrades, but is it enough to stand out?

iPhone 16 Pro Max review: Bigger is better? | Digital Trends

The iPhone 16 Pro Max is big, powerful, and expensive. If you can handle its size and price, it's a fantastic iPhone.

Beautiful display ; Powerful performance ; Camera Control is a nice addition ; Great battery life ; Improved ultrawide camera

It's too darn big ; Boring colors ; Apple Intelligence not available yet

“If you like big phones and need all the latest and greatest features, it's hard to go wrong with the iPhone 16 Pro Max.”

Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max review

The top iPhone is back this year with an even larger screen, more powerful hardware, larger battery and faster charging. Meet the Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max...

Durable and beautiful design.

No AI Intelligence at launch, for EU may be never.

If you have an iPhone 15 Pro Max, there is probably no reason to switch. But if you own an iPhone 13 or earlier, maybe now is the time - we highly recommend the iPhone 16 Pro Max for its all-around flagship experience.

Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max Review

Leading video features ; Outstanding battery life ; Large, bright screen ; Strong connectivity

Exceedingly large ; Pricey ; No Apple Intelligence features yet

Apple's iPhone 16 Pro Max is a content creator's dream, with extra-long battery life and leading video capabilities, but it's more phone than most people will need.

Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max review - Lots of small improvements for the top smartphone

In our test, the Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max impressed us with its brilliant display and its fast A18 Pro SoC. The new dedicated camera button, on the other hand, isn't everyone's cup of tea. Even so, Apple has once more delivered an impressive smartphone...

lots of performance ;very good battery life ;good triple camera ;accurate and bright 120 Hz display ;wide frequency support

Wi-Fi 7 without 320 MHz ;SoC is throttled under load ;few Bluetooth audio codecs ;only 12-month warranty

The Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max offers a good total package. Although it only comes with some minor improvements compared to last year's model, the leap is still big if you're coming from an
