Did you upgrade to the iPhone 12 Pro Max or are you sticking with the iPhone 11 Pro Max? What iPhone 12 did you end up buying?

[@xdtrollers5525]

11 pro max is good enough

[@vladimir.budzar]

Sticking with the XS Max lol

[@joleny72]

I’m still thinking, my phone is up for upgrade next month. I have mixed feelings if I want to upgrade or not

[@rrrr2150]

the battery downgrade is a no no for me. maybe next year

[@yeraec]

No way I'm gonna ditch my 11 Pro Max. I'm going to stick with it till 2022 at least.

[@kramshiron]

In short if you have the iPhone 11 Pro Max...no reason to upgrade unless you take loads of night photos.

[@whatareyoudoingthis4]

You gotta remember the lower saturation isnt a bad thing. It opens up for a wider variety of editing in post

[@NM_rocker]

The cameras might not be a reason to upgrade but the ram is definitely, I know it wasn’t the subject of this video 😉

[@EricOkafor]

Amazing comparison! Very helpful🙏🏽

[@dannywinget]

Thank you!

[@VIRTUALJAPAN]

Another great comparison! I am super disappointed that Apple was not able to remedy the green ghost flares, as they are super distracting at night. This is especially pronounced in video at night while walking around, and it just becomes very distracting for the viewer. Hopefully they can take care of this in next years model, as I don't see this on most other non-iPhones.

[@dannywinget]

Yeah that coating on the lenses need improvement!

[@robsnow2099]

I agree the lens flare is almost a deal breaker.

[@sttv1570]

All smartphones has this ghost flares, not only Apple its the limitation design of lenses in smartphones. Samsung has it, Pixel has it. It just different in terms of the shape of the flares and colors between all these brands.

[@Tady-it5fi]

Not a huge difference, you’ll be happy with either ...

[@danielmcdonald9917]

@Johnny Bravo 🤣🤣 no its not only night mode

[@chiwaichan8807]

The dynamic range difference is huge also the ultra wide correction and lidar sensor focus accuracy

[@Tady-it5fi]

@Johnny Bravo only in night mode the 12 is better, the rest of the time I prefer 11 ‘s photos

[@Tady-it5fi]

@Johnny Bravo brighter doesn’t always mean better, it make the scene fake, overexposure is not nice at all 2:10 ,what about the lens flare on 12 ?

[@pandaghostofficial]

People need to justify why they spent $$ to upgrade their phones, I'm not surprised why they would think the 12 is way better than the 11

[@Tirelirelou]

I’m a photographer and this is the best camera test I have read so far. Will surely help people decide which one to choose for their own use. Keep on!

[@dannywinget]

🙏

[@gooldii1]

Which do you prefer? The Left looks better!

[@hamzatatta952]

hi Danny hope u keeping safe so am I a creative photographer I have been doing research on upgrading is the 11 pro max camera worth getting?

[@franklinmussey5667]

So which one should I buy

[@CatWAVE-qq1gs]

I do it as a hobby.. and I agree.. nightshots are dismissed a lot by anyone.. and it shows how the sensor will behave in hard situations of light..

[@robsnow2099]

FINALLY, someone sold me on the 12 pro max photos. The first half of the video I was loving the 11 pro max MORE. But at night the 12 is taking it home.

Thanks for this. I live in Italy. Bought my 11 ProMax 256GB New for $1100 in February, with no sales tax, when I was in California, but the same thing in the 12 Pro Max would run me over $1600 here in Italy. I think I'll be sticking with my 11 ProMax for awhile. Plus, I'm a professional photographer, so I'll bring my better gear if I want the best photos. But the 11 ProMax was such an upgrade from the XS Max, and I have the 3 lenses, so I'm happy for now.

Now THIS is a great comparison video ! Unfortunately, just as you said, I personally liked "some" of the 11 PM pics better. I have a number of DSLR cameras, so I get the trade offs in photography. But these phones definitely create a dilemma. I'm getting a choice of either two 11 PM, or 12 PM phones (long story), but I have to decide, taking in all features and considerations. Conventional wisdom would scream "get the 12's !", but it hasn't been that simple. This video really helps and hurts lol! Thank you for the extensive work done on this !
