Editorial report
Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max 8 GB / 256 GB / International technical sheet
The iPhone 16 Pro Max suits buyers who want a large display, versatile cameras, and broad connectivity. Its main trade-off is the battery: 4685 mAh is among the weakest capacities of its time, while 25W wireless charging is among the best.
The 6.9-inch LTPO OLED display reaches 2000 nits, 460 ppi, and a 92% usable surface. Its brightness, pixel density, and screen-to-body ratio are better than most or among the best. At 227 g, the phone is heavier than most phones of its time. The Apple A18 Pro, NVMe storage, and 8 GB of RAM form this configuration, while its AnTuTu score of 1,740,422 is better than most.
The main camera combines 48 MP, a 1/1.3-inch sensor, and optical image stabilization. The telephoto camera adds 5x optical zoom, among the best of its time, and video recording reaches 4K at 120 fps. Connectivity is also among the best, with 5G, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.3, and USB 3.2 Gen 2. This version has 8 GB / 256 GB, while the phone is sold from 8 GB / 256 GB to 8 GB / 1 TB. With a NeoScore of 8.1, it is among the best phones of its time, but it is expensive and launches above most of them.
