iPhone 13 Pro Max: Why It's STILL My Main Phone

Thanks Doc!

I have used pixels for years but after the 6 pro was a huge disappointment for me. Bought the iPhone 13 pro max and the entire experience has been stress free. I also love the pixel camera hardware, but their software is lacking nowadays imo. Awesome video!

Man, I was gonna get the s22 ultra, but then I was like I’ll pass. That camera quality is ass. So I got the 13 pro max 3 weeks ago

[@chasekilleen1459]

Can I ask why the Pixel 6 or Pro is a major disappointment? Tbh I really wanted to get that phone, the smooth experience of the stock Android and the Google tensor chip

[@superiortoall22]

@@chasekilleen1459 just buggy as hell. I have the Pixel 6 Pro and the iphone 13 Pro Max, when I switch from the Pixel to the iphone, it's just a smoother experience. With the pixel, every action you do is basically a "will it actually happen?" Moment. Like Bluetooth headphones for example. If I take one ear out to pause the music and place the bud back in, it may resume the music, it may not, it may even just disconnect the entire headphone from the phone so now I have to go in and pair the headphones all over again. Small things like that really add up

[@Vedicarts108]

I knew this was the last iphone I would need to buy for awhile, especially because of the larger battery, perfect screen frame rate, camera of course and the sweet blue sierra color.

My only gripe about the IPhone 13 Pro Max is the size. I think I’m gonna get the 6.1 inch Pro version next time instead of the 6.7 inch pro max. I can use the phone 1 handed but it can be a but clumsy sometimes. I think the 6.1 inch Pro is the perfect phone, especially since apple now puts the exact same camera setup in the pro and pro max. Every single thing is the same between the 2 phones besides obviously the pro max has a larger display and a bigger battery.

[@greenapple6404]

Ive always regretted going to a smaller phone. I went from an S8+ to an S10. I didnt think it’d be an issue given than the S10 has a larger screen size despite being physically smaller. Well, I got a 13 Pro. Instead of just going back to a larger phone, i still have regrets sticking with the smaller one. Once you get that big phone, going back to a smaller model is meh

These reviews crack me up. They assume that the reviewers needs are the best same as mine. I don't know anyone who uses video on their phone, or anything this reviewers does with his phone. I don't take pictures. I don't need super loudspeakers on the phone. I use my phone to make calls, send text, listen to music on my headphone, do Google searches, use Google maps mostly and other basic uses. It's the same for my kids. Our best phone is therefore the lightest phone, with sufficient speed and screen quality, and cheap. That's why we use a super light and cheap Chinese phone. When putting my cheap Chinese phone side by side with the iPhone 13 pro max what is striking is size. My phone is paper thin compared to the brick that the iPhone is. Also it's 20% of the price of the iPhone. Mobility is the most important feature in a mobile phone. In my opinion. Then price. There is no iPhone that does the job for me. To me they all look clunky and expensive. Oh, and my cheap phone doesnt have that huge notch, has the latest usb and the camera zoom is 10x. And it has dual sim. I love to talk to people who own two iPhones because they have 2 sims. Explain how it's better than a single slim phone with 2 sims. Duh.
