Pros

  • • Includes under-display Face ID, drastically shrinking the camera cutout and maximizing the massive 6.9-inch display area.
  • • Unmatched, industry-leading battery life that can easily last two full days for many users.
  • • The triple 48MP camera system takes arguably the best, most detailed photos of any smartphone on the market.
  • • The blazing-fast A19 Pro chip and 12GB of RAM provide the ultimate Apple Intelligence AI experience.

Cons

  • • Astonishingly expensive, pushing the very boundaries of premium consumer smartphone pricing.
  • • Extremely heavy and bulky; it is a two-handed device that is virtually impossible to use with one hand.
  • • The new under-display Face ID can sometimes struggle with certain thick glass screen protectors.
  • • Wired fast charging speeds are still disappointingly slow compared to much cheaper Android alternatives.

It features an unprecedented triple 48MP camera setup (Main, Ultrawide, and Telephoto), allowing you to capture stunningly detailed ProRAW images at multiple optical zoom levels.

Is the iPhone 17 Pro Max bigger than the 16 Pro Max?

No, it retains the exact same massive 6.9-inch display size as the older iPhone 16 Pro Max, making it equally large and heavy.

It features an upgraded 12GB of RAM, specifically added to provide maximum performance and multitasking capabilities for on-device Apple Intelligence features.
