I bought the iPhone 13 Pro Max, yes. I traded the iPhone 11 I had for the most complete version I’ve ever used on an iPhone. I found some things strange at first, like the gigantic screen. Now the evolution of cameras enchanted me, well, if you are looking for an iPhone to buy in 2023, stay with me until the end of this video and I will tell you regarding the experience of going from an iPhone 11 to a 13 Pro Max.
Is it worth buying an iPhone 13 Pro Max in 2023?
I thoroughly tested the iPhone 13 Pro Max and separated five reasons for you to buy one in 2023. Watch this video content:
Reason 1: Cameras
iPhone 13 Pro Max cameras are the first reason to buy it. Apple has done an incredible job on the whole, the image stabilization in videos, the quality of photos even at night stand out from most traditional smartphones, including predecessor iPhones.
We have Sensor-shift Stabilization on the iPhone 13 Pro Max, which instead of stabilizing the lens, stabilizes the image sensor, which produces highly stabilized content. Videos, especially the Cinema mode that focuses on the person’s face, follows wherever you go and automatically blurs the background.
In sensors, we have a triple set of 12MP, normal lens, ultrawide lens and telephoto lens with 3x zoom, the selfie camera also has a 12MP sensor.
Reason 2: Battery
One of the things that I felt the most difference between the iPhone 11 and 13 Pro Max was the battery. It’s okay that I went from a 3110mAh battery to a 4352mAh one. Only in the size difference we are talking regarding almost 30% bigger.
My use in recent days has not been so constant, getting regarding 1h45min to 2h of screen on. This frequency of use makes it easy for me to have 3 days away from the charger.
The day that consumed the most battery was when I traveled to Maceió, leaving Porto Alegre with a stopover in Brasília. These waits at the airport, there is consumption of content and games to pass the time. I got to the end of the day with 25% battery, something excellent for an iPhone.
Reason 3: Screen
The screen was one of the big improvements of the iPhone 13 Pro Max over its predecessor. It was the first to incorporate the new ProMotion Display, which consists of automatically handling the screen frequency from 10Hz to 120Hz, making screen animations and scrolls much more fluid. The panel is 6.7 inches, with QHD resolution, Dolby Vision, 120Hz and enough brightness to look at the cell phone on the street. In addition, it is already protected by Ceramic Shield glass, in my constant use it has not had any scratches yet.
The panel of the 13 Pro Max is second only to that of the 14 Pro Max, which raised the production price of iPhones, according to a report we published in Oficina da Net.
Reason 4: Performance
Talking regarding performance on an iPhone is kind of a pleonasm, I’ve never witnessed any screen crashes, animations that aren’t smooth. We have a 5nm A15 Bionic processor, 6GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, in my version.
The games all run smoothly, without stuttering, with maximum capacity. Which proves the effectiveness of the processor combined with well-optimized software and games for iPhones.
Reason 5: Best option among the 2023 Pro Max
Another point I would like to address is that the 13 Pro Max is the best cost-effective option among the existing Pro Max, I’ll explain.
- The 13 Pro and Pro Max were the devices that made a big jump in battery life;
- He was also the one who had a great advance in the Cinema mode of recording videos, for those who produce content, you know that it is really great;
- Improvements in antennas and 5G signal;
- Ceramic Shield on the screen, brought more resistance to smartphone glass;
Taking everything into account, combined with the price of the iPhone Pro Max, I think the 13 is the best value for money among the iPhone Pro Max.
What’s the right price to pay for an iPhone 13 Pro Max?
Evaluating the current smartphone landscape, you can buy a 128GB iPhone 13 Pro Max when it is priced below R$6,999. I bought my copy from a friend who also tests smartphones, I got it used for a few weeks for R$6,500 for the 256GB version. Surely you must have seen prices like or even lower than this in retail and promotions. Stay tuned, the time to buy an iPhone 13 Pro Max is in the coming months.
IPhone 13 Pro Max vs iPhone 13 Pro
Can I buy the Pro version? You see, the Max has a larger screen and battery, these are the basic differences between them. The set of cameras, processing power, screen quality, it’s all the same. The basic advantage is the longer battery life. The Pro is not as big as the Pro Max, which sometimes sticks out of the pocket.
