Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max 512GB Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
![Deepak Dhingra]()
Verdict
The iPhone 16 Pro Max brings an innovative way to control the camera, useful Photographic styles, powerful performance and excellent shooters, among other things. The smartphone might not make for a worthy upgrade for anyone looking to move from the iPhone 15 series, but is well worth a look for those seeking a top-end premium flagship that scores high in every aspect of smartphone usage, and delivers an all-round hardware and software experience that's tough to beat.
Pros
- Good performance & battery life
- Excellent cameras & useful Photo Styles
- Video capabilities & Audio Mix
- Apple Intelligence
Cons
- Camera control needs a learning curve
- Apple Intelligence needs more work
- Slow charging
- Pricey
Design and display
+
As I mentioned before, the design language remains largely unchanged this time, so much so that the iPhone 16 Pro Max looks pretty much the same as its predecessor, which, by the way, looked the same as its predecessor. You get the drift. However, there's something to be said for the iconic design that scores high both on style as well as build — the flat, blocky shape with rounded corners, the titanium frame, the Ceramic Shield glass and the new microblasted texture, all add up to form a smartphone that looks good and is built to last too. There's a new Desert Titanium shade this time that looks quite classy, while the bezels have been shrunk further, enabling Apple to fit a 6.9-inch on the 16 Pro Max without increasing the overall size of the device and making it the largest ever display on an iPhone. The previous Pro Max models came with 6.7-inch screens, and when it comes to bezel width and display size, every millimetre counts.

Cameras and Camera Control
+
Unsurprisingly, a big part of the iPhone 16 Pro Max story revolves around the cameras. iPhones are known for their photo and video-capturing prowess, and the 16 Pro Max attempts to take things to the next level with its upgraded hardware and software. The key new highlights include 4K 120 fps recording in Dolby Vision and a new 48MP ultra-wide camera (up from 12MP on the previous model), among other things. This year, both the Pro and the Pro Max models flaunt 5x telephoto camera, versus last year, when this feature was only available on the 15 Pro Max, with the 15 Pro featuring a 3x telephoto shooter.

Software and AI
+
iOS 18, the latest iteration of Apple's mobile OS, brings extensive customisation options and new features, and there are AI features in the offing as well. New platform features include the ability to customise the placement and colour tone of the app icons on the home screen, customising the controls on the Control Center, a redesigned Photos app, intelligent categorisation in the Mail app, and more. There's a new Passwords app that allows you to store all your passwords in one place, with Apple's assurance of security of course.

Performance and battery
+
Apple's newest Pro-grade silicon, the 3nm A18 Pro powers all of the iPhone 16 Pro Max's number-crunching and AI chops. Promising all-round performance bumps and big upgrades to AA gaming and camera features, the new chip comes with a 16-core neural engine, a 6-core CPU and a 6-core GPU. These components are said to be significantly faster as compared to the A17 Pro, with improvements ranging from 15 to 20 percent. With improved efficiency, the new silicon promises better battery life as well. Synthetic benchmarks like Antutu and Geekbench provide a good indication of how powerful this new SoC is, and real-life usage reflects the same — with buttery-smooth animations, fast app launch times and fluid usage across different types of apps and tasks, without any lag or jitter whatsoever. As it turns out, the iPhone 16 Pro Max scores the highest in benchmarks like Antutu and Geekbench, when compared to nearest rivals that include the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL and the Vivo X100 Pro.
