iPhone 15 Pro Max Body & Design

The biggest change in the design of the all-new iPhone 15 Pro Max is the use of Titanium, making it lighter and stronger. For those wondering about Titanium, it is the same material used in spacecraft design. The edges this time seem a bit more rounded compared to its predecessor, the iPhone 14 Pro Max. The back is made of textured matte glass to complement the sturdy materials used to manufacture it. 

Moreover, there is an Action Button which has replaced the iconic mute switch. The option to mute is default in the Action Button though but it is customizable. You will also find some new colors, as usual. Apart from these updates, there aren’t many changes in its design.

iPhone 15 Pro Max Display

There isn’t much to discuss regarding the display since it鈥檚 the same as the one used in the iPhone 14 Pro Max. It features a 6.7-inch Super Retina XDR OLED screen with a 120 Hz refresh rate for a smooth and crystal-clear display. You will also get the familiar Dynamic Island pill-shaped notch in the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

iPhone 15 Pro Max Camera

Here comes the area where Apple has made significant changes for iPhone enthusiasts. The iPhone 15 Pro Max now features a 5x telephoto camera, compared to the 3x telephoto camera in the iPhone 14 Pro Max. If you are wondering about its zoom capabilities, check out the photo showing the difference from 0.5x to 5x.

While the other camera hardware remains consistent with a 48 MP primary camera, 12 MP ultra-wide camera, and 12 MP selfie camera, there are some remarkable features to explore. Simple photos can effortlessly transform into portraits with customizable focus after the snap. Additionally, you now have the convenience of recording videos directly onto external drives. That sums up the latest from the camera department.

Performance

As we all know, Apple introduces new chipsets for its latest iPhone Pro models. The iPhone 15 Pro Max comes with the latest Apple A17 Pro (3 nm) chipset, a new 6-core GPU, and a 16-core Neural Engine. Due to this, we can say that the iPhone 15 Pro Max is the fastest iPhone ever made to date (along with the iPhone 15 Pro). The base model now starts from 256GB of storage, as the 128GB variant has been phased out.

Features 

Last year, the highlight features included Satellite Connectivity (Emergency SOS) and the dynamic island. This year, there’s a change that many iPhone lovers have been dreaming of for a long time. The new iPhone 15 Pro Max comes with a USB Type-C 3.0 port. Great news! Now, iPhone users will experience a significant improvement in transfer speeds when connecting their phones to other devices. 

Want some more? The new iPhones also come with Ultra Wideband 2 (UWB2) support, which is better than UWB 1 in various aspects, including frequency, range, and data transfer rate.

Battery & Charging

Despite the introduction of a USB Type-C 3.0 port in the new iPhone 15, there is no improvement in fast charging speed. Shockingly, both its charging time and battery capacity remain identical to what you get with the iPhone 14 Pro Max.

iPhone 15 Pro Max Price in Pakistan

The good news is that Apple has kept the prices of the iPhone 15 Pro Max unchanged compared to the iPhone 14 Pro Max. However, the price of the iPhone 15 in Pakistan is still uncertain, taking taxes and duties into account. Let’s explore the global pricing of the iPhone 15 Pro Max and convert it directly into PKR.

*The prices in Rupees are approximate and as per current dollar rate. The actual prices will be higher after adding the PTA taxes. As the price of these variants is the same as iPhone 14 Pro Max variants, so the PTA taxes will be approximately same as well.

Since the iPhone 15 Pro Max is not yet available in Pakistan, you have the option to consider the iPhone 14 Pro Max if you can’t wait for the new model or if the recent changes do not meet your expectations.

Final Verdict

The all-new iPhone 15 Pro Max arrives with commendable enhancements and upgrades. Its robust Titanium build, the addition of Type-C connectivity, camera improvements, the convenience of the Action Button, enhanced speed, and a fresh operating system stand out as its key highlights.

However, the familiar 3-camera module design at the rear may not excite everyone. On a positive note, the iPhone 15 Pro Max retains its pricing from the iPhone 14 Pro Max.
