iPhone 12 Pro Max vs iPhone XS Max - Which should you choose?

[@Mr.White1]

I’m keeping my XS Max until Apple do upgrade worthy changes. My phone is still working fine, it’s fast and smooth. Battery and camera are good. All good.

[@ParadoxOfDivinity]

I think it’s all a scam if we are being honest. Apple should make a new phone every 3-4 years. It’s insane how money hungry they are. I love Apple don’t get me wrong but these new phones are almost the same thing every year. I went from an XS to a 12 and I notice a difference but not a 200-300 dollar difference(trade in) If you had a 8 or below I would fs upgrade to the 12

[@Richard_Barnes]

Yeah I wish I’d done the same. I didn’t btw. 😤

[@longpheu]

​@@ParadoxOfDivinity I do not think scam is the right word since you have a choice whether or not to purchase it. It is more about the fact that the smartphone market has become more and more saturated. Many new features in the this year's iPhone lineup are not a breakthrough; all the features we need in our daily lives have been included in the previous models. Nowadays, getting a new phone is more about the status symbol.

2nd day with my 12 pro max (obviously coming from XS max). Still learning the differences and new features but I love it so far. Everything is so snappy and quick to respond, the 5G is amazing too, very noticeable. Words cant describe how good the speakers sound, they sound incredible given their size and sound surprisingly full. The combination of the screen size, resolution, pixel density, OLED, true tone, and built in L/R stereo speakers makes watching videos/movies an enjoyable experience. I have a 60" 4K tv with 5.2 surround sound, but if I'm by myself, I honestly prefer watching on my phone. Initial impressions of the cameras: bear in mind I have not spent much time messing around/testing the cameras, but I have used them all multiple times and used to be a photographer (as if that matters, it's an iPhone haha). The rear camera (cameras?) doesn't seem like a huge improvement from the XS max, but come on the XS max camera was pretty freaking great and honestly it's more than enough for a phone camera, if it isnt, buy a DSLR. The front camera, however, is much better than the XS max's. This is saying something because the XS max also had a great front camera. I'd say the front camera on the 12 pro max is similar to the rear camera on the XS max. I have not done much research on the spec differences between the two models, maybe the differences I see are all in my head. Either way it doesn't matter to me because I love my new phone and that's what matters. If anyone is reading this and is on the fence...switch! If you feel like your XS max (or any model) is starting to wear out/slow down (which I REALLY did), I'm confident you'll love the upgrade just like I do, its a whole new world. Lastly, if you're reading this...drink water.

I had the XS Max...really good phone. I have the 11 Pro Max now and for me, it was a surprising huge jump in several areas I care about over the XS Max. I would recommend the 12PM as a result.

I’m still loving my iPhone XS Max!

[@charlessoto231]

Just upgraded from the 11 to the 12 pro, there was definitely nothing wrong with my 11, just wanted to see what the difference between the base iPhone vs the Pro and I’ve enjoyed the 12 pro so far, not much different but still worth the money

Can you make a battery life video with those?

I decided to go from XS Max to 12 Pro Max, Not sure if the cost is worth it but I love the 12 Pro Max it runs very smoothly. My wife now has my XS Max She upgraded from an 8 Plus and loves the XS Max, I think this is mainly down to what you can afford.

I got the XS and I’m upgrading to to the 13 pro

[@SamFromYoutube]

I'm thinking of getting the Xs Max! I'm an android user trying to force a switch. I got an XR last year but I just couldn't deal with the irritating resolution. I think the Xs Max is the one for me.

People worry about viewing angles as if we actually use our phone from the side angle

The iPhone XS series are still performance beasts. About the only thing I could see where it doesn’t match the iPhone 11/12 series is the “Night Mode.” There’s a reason why Apple quickly stopped production of the XS when the 11 series came out.

LOVE my XS Max! Just got it and for the value and $$, it’s perfect! I love 3D Touch and the vertical camera, which looks infinitely better in my opinion. I also prefer rounded sides and the fact that it still says “iPhone” on the back. I don’t care for the matte glass very much. So, as far as I’m concerned, the XS Max is the best iPhone to date. I’ll be keeping it until I HAVE to upgrade.

[@williammojica7688]

Thanks Aaron for another which should you choose and both phones are great and great choices! Also I really like your glasses when you flipped to the front facing camera!

[@abduldaimkashif6066]

I prefer the rounded edges. Hate me, I don’t care 🙂

[@pelinyarba]

i like how it looks too but i feel like the rounded edges makes me drop my phone more :D i'm not too sure tho

Great video and really shows how capable the iPhone XS Max really is against the latest and greatest. I've enjoyed owning my iPhone XS Max for 2 years now with almost no issues at all. However, I've recently upgraded to the iPhone 12 Pro Max and my reason to upgrade was only because I needed more storage. My base model iPhone XS Max only had 64GB of storage and this had become an issue as i'm doing a lot more post production work on the iPhone. I found that the base model with 64GB was becoming very hard to work with and I found myself constantly running out of space, and having to delete apps and files all the time. if I had an XS Max with 256GB then I would perhaps keep it running for another as its battery is still healthy at 91%. Anyway, I now have upgraded to the iPhone 12 Pro Max with 256GB of storage and can already see the many other benefits it offers, most notably the longer battery life and better camera system when used under certain conditions. I look forward to not having to worry about the availability of local storage space when working with photos and video files. My takeaway based on my experience is always start with the middle tier storage option if you can. :)
