Key Features

iPhone 16 Pro Max Camera

The camera system on this device is phenomenal. I tested it in both bright daylight and low-light settings, and the 48MP main sensor consistently delivered crisp, detailed images. 

The enhanced Night Mode is a real game-changer—photos in low light now show more vibrant colors and less noise. 

Battery Life

In my experience, Apple has seriously upped its game with battery optimization. The iPhone 16 Pro Max gave me almost 36 hours of battery life on regular usage. 

When I compared this to the Pixel 9 Pro, I found that Apple’s software optimization allowed for longer use without significant battery drain. Even when gaming, the battery held up surprisingly well.

Design???????

Apple knows how to keep things clean and premium. The titanium frame feels light yet durable. This makes the phone easier to handle than its predecessor, the iPhone 15 Pro Max. 

The slimmer bezels improve the display experience, and the new color options add a touch of elegance.

Final Thoughts

After putting the iPhone 16 Pro Max through its paces, I can confidently say it’s one of the best premium smartphones on the market right now. 

While the high price and familiar design may deter some, its superior performance, exceptional camera system, and impressive battery life make it stand out.

Don't know man... 4.6 may be a little much. I still think S24 Ultra is a slightly better phone. And after an update beats the iPhone in battery life for 2 hours or so. It also has a better screen and camera. I like the chip, but everything else is nothing special, comparing to the last years 15 Pro Max. If it can't beat the S24 Ultra now... then the S25 Ultra will beat it easily (not on this page of course lol) if they implement everything Samsung said.

Having looked at these images on my computer screen they look awful. The pixel level detail is so bad it looks over sharpened and mushed.
