Description

The iPhone 13 Pro Max is Apple's biggest phone in the lineup with a massive, 6.7" screen that for the first time in an iPhone comes with 120Hz ProMotion display that ensures super smooth scrolling. The benefit of such a gigantic phone is that it also comes with the biggest battery of all iPhone 13 series. Apple also introduces improvements to all three cameras on the Pro Max, the wide, ultra-wide and telephoto zoom ones, but there is no periscope style long-range zoom like on many Android phones.

Att has really ruffled my feathers

Posted: Apr 06, 2025, 6:09 PM

Phone owned for more than a year

I/husband lost our number after having for decades before switching to them . I should have been given back my damn number after purchasing my phone. But because I was trying to give back other devices they wouldn’t let me return them so me an my husband lost our number. We both were smoking. I feel if I was trying to return their products. We shouldn’t we have just been able to pay what we owed, but it didn’t happen that way.

Improved, but still not up to the price tag.

Phone owned for less than 3 months

Still disappointing. IOS still holds back iPhones and the design is to big and heavy for the screen size and small battery. The notch should not be on a phone in 2022 let alone at this price. Video is great, photos average at this price point. Battery is good u til pushed hard but is still too small compared to competition. Recharging is slow and need to improve. Overall, the phone is overpriced and not a great design. The ecosystem benefits for those with lots of Apple stuff is the only reason I can see for buying this over other comparable phones.

What I don't like

To heavy and poor in hand, IOS behind competition, charging relatively slow, no usb, walled garden has too many drawbacks
Notch should not be on any phone in 2022
