Our take on the iPhone 16 Pro Max 256GB (Unlocked)

The iPhone 16 Pro Max is Apple's largest flagship phone, with a 6.9-inch ProMotion OLED display, a titanium frame, the A18 Pro chip and a Camera Control button. Its 48MP main and ultra-wide cameras plus a 5x telephoto make it one of the strongest camera phones you can buy, and battery life is the best in the iPhone line. It suits people who want the biggest screen and the longest endurance and don't mind the size and weight. Android rivals offer faster charging and more zoom range, but reviewers say the iPhone's video, chip performance and polish still lead.
