iPhone 15 Pro Max test: the extent of the differences
Introduction of 15 Pro Max
This year, Apple has made choosing the iPhone 15 Pro Max
easier than ever. Apple's high-end model fixes all the flaws of the previous
model, starting with a new titanium body that makes most phones very light, as
well as an all-new zoom camera and an all-new battery. make phones on Android.
I'm jealous (and yes, the Pro Max is superior to the smaller iPhone 15 Pro).
Of course, the iPhone 15 Pro Max remains the most expensive in the iPhone 15 range with a new starting price of $1,200, but in our testing it convinced us that it's the iPhone that will suit the most large number. The new 5x zoom camera is incredibly stable, the USB-C port is a quality-of-life improvement you'll appreciate in the long run, and you get a few other new features including an all-new action button.Let's start with an inspection
What's new on the iPhone 15 Pro Max
A. New titanium manufacturing material.
B. The weight is much less than before
C. Fast A17 Pro processor
D. USB Type-C port for charging and data transfer at USB 3 speeds
E. New camera with 5x zoom.
F. The camera now takes photos at 24 MP instead of 12 MP.
G. Same screen size, thin bezels
H. New action button instead of mute
I. Unboxing the iPhone 15 Pro Max
The iPhone 15 Pro Max comes in a very thin box, which is nice, but that also means there's no charger in that box. This isn't a surprise, but it's still worth mentioning.In the box you get a white braided USB-C cable, but keep in mind that this is a USB 2 cable and the iPhone itself supports the USB 3 standard, so if you're looking for that quick option, go for data. transfer speed. , you will need to purchase a USB 3 cable separately.

Pro Max specifications
Another year of processors... Oh, is that USB C?Here's a quick look at the important numbers, and for the full specs, check out the iPhone 15 Pro Max specs: Of course, it's no surprise that we're getting a new processor this year. However, the new Apple A17 chip has gained a new name – not Bionic, but
Apple A17 Pro. It now supports USB 3 speeds for data transfer via the USB C port (10 gigabytes per second or 20 times faster than USB 2.0 and Lightning).

Pro Max Design and Color
The attack of the Titans iPhone 15 Pro Max test: the magnitude of the difference
The iPhone 15 Pro Max is similar to the previous iPhone 14 Pro Max, but there are some notable differences. Firstly, the frame now has a brushed titanium finish, so there are no more stains on the stainless steel frame. Second, the bezels around the iPhone 15 Pro Max's screen are noticeably thinner, making the whole phone feel a bit smaller.Otherwise, everything is as it should be: a giant camera bump with three lenses on the back, a flat metal frame and a screen with a dynamic island cutout on the front.
The power and volume button combination also remains intact, but one of the iPhone's constants, the mute switch, has been removed from the iPhone 15 Pro series. Instead, we get a new action button that works similarly to the one on the Apple Watch Ultra.
By default, the action button will always act as a mute switch. But you can also set it to do different things when you long press it: turn on the flashlight, open an app, go into focus mode, but the best part is you can literally use a shortcut of application. Some smart tips include setting up an action button to launch Google Assistant, launching a Spotify playlist, and we can't wait to hear your ideas in the comments.
As for the USB-C port at the bottom, it's there thanks to European legislation rather than Apple's will, but that's a good thing because it means an end to cable clutter. And Apple's new A17 Pro chip (finally) delivers super-fast data transfer speeds, letting you copy files from your iPhone at speeds of up to 10Gbps.
This year, the colors are more muted and subtle than ever. We now have the color of raw titanium to mark the new construction material. But all the other shades are also done in a titanium theme. iPhone 15 Pro colors include Natural Titanium, White Titanium, Blue Titanium, and Black Titanium.
iPhone 15
Pro Max screen
We can take advantage of the ProMotion's 120Hz refresh rate, Always On feature (which used to be very "on", but iOS settings now allow us to turn it down) and super brightness capabilities for watching HDR videos in any situation.
Maximum brightness hasn't increased this year, but that's okay: The maximum brightness of 2,000 nits is still bright enough for illumination, more than you'd normally need.In our lab tests, we got similar
results to the previous model, but we expected the minimum brightness to be lowered to make the phone more comfortable to use in bed, but that didn't happen.
iPhone 15
Pro Max camera
iPhone 15 Pro Max features the familiar triple camera setup with LiDAR, and its internal space is now used to house a new 5x zoom lens (120mm equivalent).
· 48MP manual/wide-angle camera
· 12 MP ultra wide angle
· 12-megapixel telephoto lens with 5x zoom
Of course, this 48MP sensor was introduced in the iPhone 14 Pro series and was a step up from the previous 12MP sensor. But this year, Apple is improving the way it processes data from this sensor. Instead of standard 12MP images, we now have 24MP images for more detail without sacrificing lighting data, thanks to the Photonic Engine and updated HDR algorithms.
The telephoto lens now features a quad prism design that offers 5x optical zoom, an improvement over last year's 3x zoom. When digital zoom is activated, the iPhone 15 Pro Max can zoom up to 25x, compared to 15x on the previous model.
What about zoom levels from 1x to 5x? Especially for pictures? Well, Apple is very confident that it can harness the power of the 48MP sensor to give us "lossless" zoom of not just 2x (48mm) but now 1.2x (28mm) and 1.5x (35mm). These are very common focal lengths and you can even set your iPhone to 1.5X mode, for example, which we will definitely do.
You can definitely see a significant improvement in quality with the 5x and 10x zoom, with sharp details and excellent stabilization so that images look sharp during the day and in low-light conditions.
You can also now capture 48MP images in HEIF format instead of RAW, which is more storage efficient. And with USB 3, videographers can record ProRes 4K video at 60 fps directly to external storage for easy transfer of work files.
The only thing that hasn't changed much is the ultra-wide camera, which still takes photos at 12MP, so it doesn't have the great detail of the new main camera. If we were betting, we'd be betting on an improved ultra-wide camera in the upcoming iPhone 16 Pro series.Selfies are another area that remains largely the same, with some changes to skin tone and HDR processing, but nothing major.

· The main camera takes clear, detailed photos in low-light conditions with Smart HDR.

quality
When it comes to video quality, the iPhone 15 Pro Max
remains unbeatable, delivering crystal clear images with superior video
stabilization up to 4K60 resolution.This new 5x zoom lens is incredibly stable,
and thanks to its high aperture, you can even take a few photos in low light
(but of course it looks grainy in the dark due to the small sensor).
However, the most interesting ones are USB-C and ProRes. Yes, you can record directly to the SSD, and yes, it's as easy as plug and play: an icon appears in the camera app and all your photos are saved to a separate folder on the SSD. It's incredibly simple and the ProRes quality is truly impressive. Of course, this is still a professional and basic feature: ProRes video is quite large and can take up around 15 GB of space per minute, but video enthusiasts will love it.
iPhone 15
Pro Max performance and specifications
Another year, another new chip for the iPhone - this time
called the Apple A17 Pro. But this time it's an even bigger step than usual:
the 20% faster GPU now offers hardware-accelerated ray tracing and a 10%
improvement. In the processor's work centers.
Apple A17 Pro is the world's first 3nm chipset for smartphones. In short, a nanometer here refers to the size of a transistor. Smaller transistors mean you have more space on your chip. Moreover, the paths between them are much shorter. So you get transistors that can do more, but transfer data between them using less power. That's why we say we'll be more energy efficient: computing with less battery drain. in theory.
In real-world tests, the improvement is quite significant, but we noticed that the phone can run a bit hotter than usual at these high speeds.Apple doesn't talk about the RAM on its phones, but we do know that we now have 8GB of RAM, a slight increase from the iPhone 14 Pro's 6GB, which will make it a lot easier.
In terms of storage, the 128GB base model is gone and the iPhone 15 Pro Max starts at 256GB, then increases to 512GB and 1TB. However, don't be too quick to rejoice because Apple has removed the low-end instead of updating it. That means the iPhone 15 Pro Max now starts at $1,199 for 256GB -- no $1,099 option.Pro models also have Wi-Fi 6E for faster Wi-Fi protocols.
iPhone 15
Pro Max System: iOS 17.
New in iOS 17 are features like Contact Restrictions, a new
way to share your contact details and allow you to personalize the appearance
of the people you call. Apple has also improved the keyboard's automatic and
predictive typing: it should now learn your expression style and adapt to you
better. There's also a new journal app (launching later this year) that will
help us decide what to write about, as well as ask suggestions and questions.
And cool things like transcribing voicemails or iMessage voicemails so you can
see what's being said.Naturally, these features will also be available on any
phone running iOS 17 (iPhone XS era and newer).
Apple iPhones receive iOS updates over the years: you can
usually expect 5 years of support. So, the iPhone 15 Pro with iOS 17 will be
released in 2023 and should get:
· iOS 18 in 2024
· iOS 19 in 2025
· iOS 20 in 2026
· iOS 21 in 2027
· iOS 22 in 2028, end of life
· iPhone 15 Pro maximum charging speed
· The iPhone 15 Pro Max supports USB Type-C and Apple doesn't need to charge it.
This is a
27-wire cable and a 15-wire charger in a MagSafe case.
The iPhone 15 series has received a new standard Qi2 wireless charger, with the first battery being stored in 2023 for the next year. The iPhone controller is not detected: on the contrary, it is damaged and has a 15W charger.

Pro Max Keyboard and Touchscreen
The iPhone comes with a neat and detailed case with a lock
and a V-shaped cover with a qualizer. No streaming, no streaming, no iPhone.In
this case, the iPhone 15 Pro Max speaker is not receiving power.How to do this
with a touchscreen, and not with the Chinese, that’s not the point. This is
Taptic Engine, the next work there.

Pro Max display screen
On this page, the iPhone 15 Pro Max is what you'll find in
Tick ok style. This is not your case, but you are looking for the iPhone 14 Pro
Max. It's as rugged as I expected, but Apple's extender design pushes the
limits of what's possible with reduced weight, bulk, and a new USB-C port. Did
you expect the company to be bought? Please note this is a comment!
