Have you guys been using the 18w fast charger that came with the phone? I got my 11 pro Max last week and I’m worried that using the fast charger every day will degrade the battery faster? The battery is a beast though, best battery on a phone I’ve ever had. When I’m working during the week it lasts me two whole days easily. 😁👍🏻
@@jonnygti yea, I recently upgraded to the new 12 pro max but the 11 pro Max’s batter, even at 80% after a year of use would still last me I’d say about an hour more than the 12 pro max at 100%. It’s insane. Although I have been waking up earlier as of lately so that might be a factor😭as for th charger, I don’t think it’ll effect your battery life in general
@@karma1351 when you say your old 11 pro Max on 80%, I’m assuming you mean the normal battery level on the Home Screen? Not the battery health in the settings? If it’s battery health I’d love to know what your usage is to have lost 20% health in 12 months!😂
1 year later with my 11 Pro Max green, with the 1st ever & last included 18W charger, biggest battery @ the moment. Definitely a phone to keep & I speak for me only. Cool comparison ✌️
I’m using iPhone 11 Pro Max and I’m trying so hard to stop myself from getting iPhone 12 Pro Max, but I do like the new flat edges but dislike the drop dead weight of new iPhone 12 Pro Max and disappointed without promotion fresh rate.
Only few places broadcast the 5th gen. , it’s too early and it’s only a thing for people who have to transfer very big files. Most people don’t going to use or can’t use it ( no broadcasting the 5th gen. ). iPhone 12’s pro camera is the only difference, together with the new design. If you’re not a professional photographer, 11pro is a great choice. If you can buy the 12pro because money is not a thing, go ahead and be aware of the luck you have, most people are using older phones, because of the money. Don’t waist your money on things you don’t need or you have to spare a slice of bread out of your mouth. If you only want to communicate with other people, iPhone 7 does the same as iPhone 12, even if you have to use a little power bank. Stay safe, healthy, strong, happy and be blessed ✌️🍀❣️
Go for the 12 pro max if u like, do what the fuck u wanna do, whether it’s outright or contract, who cares, someone else’s cash flow it’s not anything anyone else need worry about.. Period..

Sticking with the 11 Pro Max. Just turned one year old and battery still at 100%. Not enough different with the 12 Pro to justify a upgrade. Thanks for the great comparison!
I went from an 11 ProMax to the 12 ProMax. I gifted the 11 ProMax to my daughter and while I enjoy the 12 ProMax I wonder if it was worth the additional cost. I do enjoy the better ergonomic hold (square edges) and better camera.

@@TazzKId I own an iPhone 11 Pro Max. The one I bought on launch day. By proper speakers, I meant true, balanced stereo sound. Not using the ear piece which sounds terrible. Don't get me wrong, this thing get's loud as hell and the bottom speaker has some good low end response from a phone. But using the ear piece as another channel is literally a sorry excuse for claiming the phone has "stereo speakers". That's like having two different speakers. Which defeats the purpose of stereo. Now, the iPad Pro on the other hand, now that's a great implementation. Stereo sound in all orientations. And, they even went to design the DSP to adjust lower frequencies to the bottom speakers and higher frequencies to the top most speakers completely depending on orientation. This helps not only with allowing the speakers to handle more volume, but also with stereo imaging. I suggest listening to an iPad Pro if you haven't already to some music with good left/right separation and from a quality source like Tidal. That's the type of things that Apple used to do back in the days of Steve Jobs. Thinking Different. I would put money on if Steve knew about the "stereo" speakers on the iPhone 8-12s, He'd not let it pass. The notch wouldn't have passed either. Even the charger no longer included would pass. Apple really messed that one up and I was disappointed. "You all already have charging blocks" Ok, I get that, but then throw in a USB C cable and now you need an adapter or a new block...

@@mariannaan.1718 The 12 is better. But the design of the 11 is better in terms of comfort. In general they're the same though, so just get the one you can afford
11 pro max is still a good phone period. If you have the 11 pro max I’d rather stick to it and see what Apple has to present with next years offerings.
I've used the 11 pro max since January and the battery is still going strong, getting me about 12 hours of screen on time, lasting about 48 hours or sometimes more. (I charge it every 2 days). The battery life alone, not to mention the cameras, makes it the best iPhone I've ever owned! :)
Just got an 11 pro max gold color for my wife. Wasnt sure I made the right decision cause 12 pro is out but sold out everywhere I checked. After watching this Im confident I made the right choice. Thanks for the great detailed review
@@oeckstei the MagSafe Window convenience. The charger by Belkin improved my Waking up routine and the MagSafe makes having my wallet a cinch! I just love the MagSafe. The pacific Blue is also undeniably good
Yesterday I finally got around to upgrading to the 12 Pro Max from the 5S, which I had since 2013. I don't know what I have been missing out on with the iterations that came in between those two, but the difference has been mind-blowing!
Man I came from 11 pro max, upgrade ev year, got the 512gb graphite 12 pro max, even the step frm 11 to 12 was awesome, in alot of ways to be honest, I had the XS Max got my 11 pro max, didn’t really feel to much of a change, but the 11 pro max to the 12 pro max was massive, not 1 bit of regret what’s so ever..
I upgraded from my xs max to the 12 pro max; and there’s definitely a difference. Camera and video is god tier, and you’ll even notice a huge difference in battery life. I could easily go 2 days without charging the 12 pro max based on my usage.
I upgraded from my xs max to my new 12 pro max, and I love it. Definitely worth it to me, especially with the trade in value I got. Definitely gonna rock this phone for 3+ years
Nope. I have like 7-8 h and the battery is great on my iPhone 12 Pro Max. I charge the Phone after like two days and the I have like 23 procent battery left
Swtiched to the 11 pro max from an 8 Plus this year and I couldn't be any happier! Grea battery life, and it also came with a charging brick with wired earphones 😭
A useful review, thanks! I have an 11 Pro Max, an 8 Plus and a 6s Max, all working on "trickle down" through the family. The 6s Max will drive the next upgrade when it drops out of support around September 2021. Having seen this, it pretty much confirms what I'd suspected, that the 12 Pro Max just doesn't give nearly enough benefits to warrant upgrading early. I will wait for the 13 Pro Max and hope that it comes with 3 major improvements: 1. The return of Touch ID. 2. A usefully larger screen over the 11 Pro Max. 3. A greatly reduced notch.
Upgraded from 11 Pro to 12 Pro Max. Love the bigger display, better battery life, better low-light photos, slightly longer zoom lens. Not a huge fan of the weight & bulk of the Max phones, but the bigger screen is better for viewing photos, videos, and reading the news or iBooks. So, the benefits "outweigh" the costs of the big phone. And the 12 Pro Max is only 1/4" wider and 1/2" taller than the 12 Pro, and a little over an ounce heavier. So we're not talking night-and-day difference. I know the Max iPhones aren't for everyone, so I'm glad that Apple makes the 12 Pro Max, 12, and 12 Mini, these are really excellent phones for folks who want something easier to hold & pocket. Thanks Aaron for another great video!! Stay safe!
I have the 11 pro max midnight green 256gb & honestly this phone is a savage. I have all day battery, the pictures & videos are amazing, also talk & text work great! I was going to upgrade but they are similar and if I’m gonna upgrade I want more change but that’s just me. Either way they are both great.
that's the video I was looking for since the iPhone 12 series came out. I switched from the 11PM to the 12PM and except for the squared off edges, they both feel basically the same phone
Not been able to pysically go to store and compare the size with the 11pro max which I have because of lockdown. Is it noticeably larger or not particularly?
Yes i'll stick with 11 max and skip ip12&13. Its ridiculous that my acquaintance trade her 11 max to 12 pro..It's barely an upgrade imo. I think 3-4 years its the best windows for upgrading especially if you bought an expensive flagship.
There's a couple of things to be said if you want to upgrade from your current phone to one of these two. If you have an older phone and want one of these, you basically have to know your priorities. To put it simply, if you like the square design, if you want a better screen, top performance, and a battery that even though has less capacity than the one in the 11, is actually better because of the OLED Display, and can spend a good deal of money, than choose the 12 pro Max (i didn't mention the cameras because it's not that much of a leap). But if you want a really good phone, with a good screen (even though is LCD), with good battery life, and can do pretty much everything the 12 can for slightly less money (still is expensive though), than choose the 11. But if you have the 11 and want to upgrade to the 12 i'd say it's not worth it because it's a lot of money for a phone that isn't that much better. I would suggest you to upgrade to the 12 only if you currently own versions previous to the Iphone 11.
Staying with my 11 Pro Max til the 13 comes out ! Bought it new from day 1 no problems at all only thing is the battery health from 100% to 94% within a yr I don’t think that’s bad at all and I’m a heavy user . Hopefully the 13 is worth it
I'm switching from my crappy old budget Android phone after 2 years, and I'm generally really bored with Android. Decided to go with the 11 Pro Max over the 12 Pro Max because either way it's going to be a MASSIVE upgrade from what I have right now, they're mostly identical, and I can get the 11 Pro Max for several hundred dollars less. Sucks to miss out on the 5G, but it's not worth an extra what, $300+? compared to buying a lightly used 11 Pro Max.
@@drewshere7869 I’m laughing my ass off at all the broke comments. People need to worry about keeping the roofs over their heads over watching these videos 💀
I have both, there is no reason to upgrade there are no noticable camera differences, marketing scam hype and paid youtubers fooling people. I just bought the same phone twice for .2 more screen space and the iphone 4 box design.
I upgraded. It’s not a HUGE leap from the 11PM to the 12PM. I prefer the design. The performance isn’t otherworldly compared to the 11. But those cameras, camera features, and ProRaw 😍. That alone makes it worth it for me. Better battery life too but I think it’s more of an Apple trick than the phone 😂.
After watching this video from my Infinix Note 10, i fell in love with the 12 pro max... I have been confused for which of them to buy.... I think i am very much convinced to get the 12 pro max by February Next year 🥰🥰🥰🥰
The 11 pro Max is much better since it has much better better battery 🔋 I like the boxy design from the 12 pro Max but we all slap a case on our phones so it doesn’t really matter
Honestly, the difference is not much. I had the 11 pro max and decided to upgrade to the 12 pro max, and I lost about an hour of SOT from when I first got my 11, and as long as I can easily get a full day use, I’m fine with that. I’m just in love with the new boxy design and it’s so much easier to hold with cases.
@Brittany Lynn Yes! The pictures from the 11 series and 12 series are so close! You’d only notice some differences with night mode photography. The 12 series is better at that.
I switched from the 11 pro max to the 12 pro Max simply because of the squared edges, it feels nicer and more original. The bigger screen makes it better to watch videos
No one will believe me but 11 pro max takes better sharper pictures. I have tested it. No idea what’s wrong with 12 pro max but end results 11 pro max looks better. Also much better battery life. Just the main and telephoto. Ultra wide 12 pro max was better
Hello there, Aaron! Thank you so much again for these great videos. I'm still clinging to the 11 pro max since I cannot afford a new phone every year. Notwithstanding, I keep watching your videos and these make me understand that it's not necessary to upgrade this year, if I don't care about 5G. I might wait till next year, though. Hopefully 5G and battery Life make a better team on the 13 pro max :) Thanks again. I also would like to ask you about the scratches now that you mentioned it. Can I replace the display with apple care even when I just have some minor scratches, or do I actually need to crack the screen to be able to replace it? I wonder if you have ever experienced a situation like this. So sorry for the bother.
I think upgrading your phone yearly is crazy🤑. I still have the S5 and my niece has the 8+🤪. The only reason I’m getting one is bc my S5 doesn’t always work it crashes a lot but I have never rebooted it either in fear of loosing pictures lol.
I am still using my 7Plus which i got in 2016. Now i am planning to upgrade, but confused with 11 pro max and 12 pro max. Or should i wait for 13 Pro Max to be released in 2 months 😥
Great video Aaron My wife and I are still using the 6s Plus. I’m thinking of getting her the 12 Pro Max for the simple reason it has a larger battery than the 12 Pro. I’m probably going to hold off until the Iphone 13 Pro Max or whatever it’s going to be called. One reason we buy our iPhones outright, that’s about $4k CDN. My biggest pet peeve with Apple is battery size. I wish they get past the “we’ve improved everything else for lower battery consumption” Me, put a HUGE ass battery in the iphone. It’s like a car dealer, advertise a car that gets 30mpg. You buy it and start driving and get only 20mpg. You final realize the 30mpg was achieved in a vacuum in unrealistic conditions. It’s really my only complaint about iPhones. Apple, please go HUGE battery in your iphone 13!!😁 Thanks Aaron for all you do!
my 5 year old iphone 6s plus still looking like brand new. After new battery replacement it performs well and meet all my needs. Keeping this OG for another year or so.
I currently have an iphone X and would love to switch to the iphone 11 pro max because of the almost 4000 mah battery, instead of the puny 3600 mah of the 12 pro max, I know that the 5nm processor helps with efficency but on the tests the 11 pro max still comes up as the battery king, I just hate when apple reduces the capacity of the batteries, and now not even providing a charger
Just bought my 12 pro max today. And absolutely love it. Thinner bezels. Wider and taller screen then 11 pro max and XS Max. Super smooth. Fast. And camera is amazing

I’ve had the 11 pro max for a year now and I’m still getting the 12 pro max just so I can have both. I like the design of the new iPhone 12
Which is generally better??I wanna upgrade and i cant decide which of them
@@mariannaan.1718 The 12 is better. But the design of the 11 is better in terms of comfort. In general they're the same though, so just get the one you can afford
@@mariannaan.1718 just get whichever you can find
11 pro max is still a good phone period. If you have the 11 pro max I’d rather stick to it and see what Apple has to present with next years offerings.
I've used the 11 pro max since January and the battery is still going strong, getting me about 12 hours of screen on time, lasting about 48 hours or sometimes more. (I charge it every 2 days). The battery life alone, not to mention the cameras, makes it the best iPhone I've ever owned! :)
Hello! Are you using ios 14 or 13?☺️

Just got an 11 pro max gold color for my wife. Wasnt sure I made the right decision cause 12 pro is out but sold out everywhere I checked. After watching this Im confident I made the right choice. Thanks for the great detailed review
Had the 6s plus for 5 plus years. Here’s to another 5+ years with my 12 pro max
In the exact same boat my friend
Also an owner of a 6s plus. What made you decide to go with the 12 pro max instead of the 11 pro max?

TLDW: They are both very very very good phones, and you will not be disappointed with either.
Thank you for the review. I have a 11 Pro Max and was on the fence. I agree that there are no significant improvements to justify the upgrade.
I’m holding on to my 11 pro max til the iPhone 13 pro max.
Best comparison video I've seen of these particular phones so far! This is how you do a comparison video!
Thank you. I’m glad you like it.
Finally! A video with this dilemma 😂 I’ve wanted to know which i should get

@J.D Me I prefer the shape of the 11 plus I use a DSLR for photos.
@tactical person that would be a good update if your not stuck in the android eco system
@J.D Me In germany there are plenty of serious ebay sellers selling 11 pro max for around 700$ and even less.
Yesterday I finally got around to upgrading to the 12 Pro Max from the 5S, which I had since 2013.
I don't know what I have been missing out on with the iterations that came in between those two, but the difference has been mind-blowing!
BIG upgrade!
It’s like going from an Athlon 2 pc to a Ryzen 7 5000 series. 😂
Apple: "To go forward...we must go backward"
Consumers: "....revolutionary!"
I am watching this on my iPhone 12 ProMax Gold. Upgraded from IPhone X. Feels sooo good! 😍
Camera issues?
Great video, how about a XS Max vs 12 Pro Max to help the two year upgraders decide
much better cameras (+ ultra wide) crisp images, +5 hours battery life, bigger display, new design, fast, 5G, deep fusion, 128gb base model
Man I came from 11 pro max, upgrade ev year, got the 512gb graphite 12 pro max, even the step frm 11 to 12 was awesome, in alot of ways to be honest, I had the XS Max got my 11 pro max, didn’t really feel to much of a change, but the 11 pro max to the 12 pro max was massive, not 1 bit of regret what’s so ever..
I upgraded from my xs max to the 12 pro max; and there’s definitely a difference. Camera and video is god tier, and you’ll even notice a huge difference in battery life. I could easily go 2 days without charging the 12 pro max based on my usage.
I got my 11 Pro Max in April end, I’ll be sticking with it, I do love the gains on the 12 Pro Max tho
@Brittany Lynn not from the apple store but from specific retailers and carriers.
@Brittany Lynn yeah
Been on my iPhone X for 3 years. The 12 Pro Max arrives in the mail tomorrow. So excited.
I love my iPhone 12 Pro Max and sometimes i like to use it without a case cuz of its new design and its easier to hold now and its not as slippery
Make sure NOT to use 5G, it is all about controlling the masses! Do your research and DON'T use corrupt google, use DuckDuckGo.
@@truckerron I disabled it, made battery kife worse and internet slower. Germany has no 5G 😂
Planning on updating my iPhone 8+ to the iPhone 11 Pro Max :D Excited
I’m in the same boat as well
I upgraded from my xs max to my new 12 pro max, and I love it. Definitely worth it to me, especially with the trade in value I got. Definitely gonna rock this phone for 3+ years
11 Pro Max Has The Best Lasting Battery👏🏻💯
Nope. I have like 7-8 h and the battery is great on my iPhone 12 Pro Max. I charge the Phone after like two days and the I have like 23 procent battery left

Swtiched to the 11 pro max from an 8 Plus this year and I couldn't be any happier! Grea battery life, and it also came with a charging brick with wired earphones 😭
Awesome comparison/review! It answered all the questions I had… good job!
A useful review, thanks!
I have an 11 Pro Max, an 8 Plus and a 6s Max, all working on "trickle down" through the family. The 6s Max will drive the next upgrade when it drops out of support around September 2021. Having seen this, it pretty much confirms what I'd suspected, that the 12 Pro Max just doesn't give nearly enough benefits to warrant upgrading early.
I will wait for the 13 Pro Max and hope that it comes with 3 major improvements:
1. The return of Touch ID.
2. A usefully larger screen over the 11 Pro Max.
3. A greatly reduced notch.
You got one right. 😂
@@annahenrietta9517
And which one is that?
@@Jon-zj2nj The reduced notch. 😁
i am currently in the XR and ordered the 12 pro max 512gb in graphite....lookin forward to it....another great review...cheers
Got myself a much needed upgrade this year going from a 4s to the 12 pro max super excited its been well past time to upgrade
Upgraded from 11 Pro to 12 Pro Max. Love the bigger display, better battery life, better low-light photos, slightly longer zoom lens. Not a huge fan of the weight & bulk of the Max phones, but the bigger screen is better for viewing photos, videos, and reading the news or iBooks. So, the benefits "outweigh" the costs of the big phone.
And the 12 Pro Max is only 1/4" wider and 1/2" taller than the 12 Pro, and a little over an ounce heavier. So we're not talking night-and-day difference.
I know the Max iPhones aren't for everyone, so I'm glad that Apple makes the 12 Pro Max, 12, and 12 Mini, these are really excellent phones for folks who want something easier to hold & pocket.
Thanks Aaron for another great video!! Stay safe!
Bro 12 pro max has a shitty battery compared to 11 pro max
I have the 11 pro max midnight green 256gb & honestly this phone is a savage. I have all day battery, the pictures & videos are amazing, also talk & text work great!
I was going to upgrade but they are similar and if I’m gonna upgrade I want more change but that’s just me. Either way they are both great.
Very very informative!! Thank you so much for this. I have the 8 Plus so it’s about time to upgrade 😁 Stay well!!
Same lol
Thank you Aaron! I recently got my iPhone 12 pro max about an hour ago at Apple Store
Love my 11 Pro
Came from XS Max. I’m done with huge phones.
I have the 11 Pro Max kinda debating if I should go back to just a 12 Pro kinda over this huge phone too :/
I’ve always gotten MAX until I got the XR and I’m over huge phones too
that's the video I was looking for since the iPhone 12 series came out. I switched from the 11PM to the 12PM and except for the squared off edges, they both feel basically the same phone
what about the weight?
@@connor25 the iPhone 12 Pro Max weighs 2 grams more than the iPhone 11 Pro Max (228gr vs. 226gr) so for the weight, it is almost imperceptible
Do you like the squares off sides? That’s the only thing I’m iffy about with the 12
Update: got the 12, love the squared edges
@@jajajacob7521 absolutely love the squared off edges. It’s refreshing
Not been able to pysically go to store and compare the size with the 11pro max which I have because of lockdown.
Is it noticeably larger or not particularly?
I still have the iPhone 11 Pro Max and I don’t have problems with speed and battery life
i have the regular 12 and my old 11 pro max lasted longer omg i miss the big phone
@@11cesarrenato hope you enjoy it but ut wasnt worth upgrading
@@11cesarrenato buddy you downgraded hard
Yes i'll stick with 11 max and skip ip12&13. Its ridiculous that my acquaintance trade her 11 max to 12 pro..It's barely an upgrade imo. I think 3-4 years its the best windows for upgrading especially if you bought an expensive flagship.
@@11cesarrenato yea bro I just upgraded to the 12 bro max I think my 11 pro max lasted me more day to day 😭the 11 pro max was a beast
I love my 11 pro max. Best one IMO. Battery life is amazing. I don’t think I’ll be switching over anytime soon to iPhone 12 or even a later model.
There's a couple of things to be said if you want to upgrade from your current phone to one of these two.
If you have an older phone and want one of these, you basically have to know your priorities. To put it simply, if you like the square design, if you want a better screen, top performance, and a battery that even though has less capacity than the one in the 11, is actually better because of the OLED Display, and can spend a good deal of money, than choose the 12 pro Max (i didn't mention the cameras because it's not that much of a leap).
But if you want a really good phone, with a good screen (even though is LCD), with good battery life, and can do pretty much everything the 12 can for slightly less money (still is expensive though), than choose the 11.
But if you have the 11 and want to upgrade to the 12 i'd say it's not worth it because it's a lot of money for a phone that isn't that much better. I would suggest you to upgrade to the 12 only if you currently own versions previous to the Iphone 11.
I am using iPhone 11 and want to upgrade which one would you advise me to get iPhone 11 Pro max or the iPhone 12 pro max ?
@@mohammedabdiaziz2508 Iphone 14
You can’t buy an 11 pro or promax from apple anymore just the 11 - I’m so happy I got this 11 proMax last year. I’ll be sticking with it until 2022
Staying with my 11 Pro Max til the 13 comes out ! Bought it new from day 1 no problems at all only thing is the battery health from 100% to 94% within a yr I don’t think that’s bad at all and I’m a heavy user . Hopefully the 13 is worth it
this guy is so calm and good in explaining stuff
Just bought my 11 Pro Max and still worth it.😇
I'm switching from my crappy old budget Android phone after 2 years, and I'm generally really bored with Android. Decided to go with the 11 Pro Max over the 12 Pro Max because either way it's going to be a MASSIVE upgrade from what I have right now, they're mostly identical, and I can get the 11 Pro Max for several hundred dollars less. Sucks to miss out on the 5G, but it's not worth an extra what, $300+? compared to buying a lightly used 11 Pro Max.
I can't afford both of them, yet I still watch this video 😂😂😂
😂😂
I love how broke people think people are laughing with them, not at them 💀💀💀
@@SlyCooperRN us none "broke" people laughing with them
@@drewshere7869 I’m laughing my ass off at all the broke comments. People need to worry about keeping the roofs over their heads over watching these videos 💀
@@SlyCooperRN they're probably kids who don't have careers or salaries. I'm barely at the age where I can get a job.
I just have a question. Is it worth buying the 12 pro max used in the end of 2022?
Everyone be happy with what they got. No one need to dictate to anyone who should or shouldn’t upgrade. I had 11PM and now 12PM and I’m cool with it.
Way to go aaron! Love all your videos! I am rocking a 12 pro max gold
I have both, there is no reason to upgrade there are no noticable camera differences, marketing scam hype and paid youtubers fooling people. I just bought the same phone twice for .2 more screen space and the iphone 4 box design.
I bought iphone 11 pro max in October and I love it, my first ever iPhone device, but unfortunately I lost my job 2 days after have it.
How?

Nice upgrade..
@@trutherone1725 how's the phone
I upgraded. It’s not a HUGE leap from the 11PM to the 12PM. I prefer the design. The performance isn’t otherworldly compared to the 11. But those cameras, camera features, and ProRaw 😍. That alone makes it worth it for me. Better battery life too but I think it’s more of an Apple trick than the phone 😂.
Iphone 12promax 😀😀😀😀😀😃😀😀😀😀😀😀 9:38
After watching this video from my Infinix Note 10, i fell in love with the 12 pro max... I have been confused for which of them to buy.... I think i am very much convinced to get the 12 pro max by February Next year 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Did you get this? If so how is it?
The 11 pro Max is much better since it has much better better battery 🔋
I like the boxy design from the 12 pro Max but we all slap a case on our phones so it doesn’t really matter
Honestly, the difference is not much. I had the 11 pro max and decided to upgrade to the 12 pro max, and I lost about an hour of SOT from when I first got my 11, and as long as I can easily get a full day use, I’m fine with that. I’m just in love with the new boxy design and it’s so much easier to hold with cases.
Best iphone comparison video ever watched !! Love from Pakistan 💕
i am having my first iPhone ever the 12 Pro Max 128gb graphite...

I will stick to my iPhone 11 Pro max...the thing is a beast and upgrade still expensive...thanks a lot for this great review
Tbh, I am gonna stick to my 11, will definitely upgrade when Apple includes the touch id in the power/lock button.
And if they never do?
@Brittany Lynn Yes! The pictures from the 11 series and 12 series are so close! You’d only notice some differences with night mode photography. The 12 series is better at that.
@@TheM275 they will, haven’t u heard about Apple’s patent design ??
this video is what i’m waiting, thanks man! i’m sticking with my 11 pro max✊🏼
I switched from the 11 pro max to the 12 pro Max simply because of the squared edges, it feels nicer and more original. The bigger screen makes it better to watch videos
No one will believe me but 11 pro max takes better sharper pictures. I have tested it. No idea what’s wrong with 12 pro max but end results 11 pro max looks better. Also much better battery life.
Just the main and telephoto. Ultra wide 12 pro max was better
Idk if its only me but I like the size of the camera module more on the 11 Pro Max due to its uniformity or something idk lol
Great content as always!
When you have iPhone 11 Pro Max then no need to buy iPhone 12 pro Max simple !
100% agree
5G
@ً who honesty cares about 5g like there is literally no reason to get it yet till there is more uses for it so like he said no reason to get it lmao
@ً not necessarily. I have an Xs Max and have had 5g for longer than a year.
@@djrasjuky5139 11 pro max has 5g too. 12 pro max is just better with using it
In my opinion the 11 pro max is the best phone apple has released till date. 💯
Thanks Aaron. I upgraded from iphone X to 12 pro max .😊
Loving it !
I just upgraded from X too. What an amazing phone the 12 Pro Max is. 👍👍👍
Hello there, Aaron! Thank you so much again for these great videos. I'm still clinging to the 11 pro max since I cannot afford a new phone every year. Notwithstanding, I keep watching your videos and these make me understand that it's not necessary to upgrade this year, if I don't care about 5G. I might wait till next year, though. Hopefully 5G and battery Life make a better team on the 13 pro max :) Thanks again. I also would like to ask you about the scratches now that you mentioned it. Can I replace the display with apple care even when I just have some minor scratches, or do I actually need to crack the screen to be able to replace it? I wonder if you have ever experienced a situation like this. So sorry for the bother.
I think upgrading your phone yearly is crazy🤑. I still have the S5 and my niece has the 8+🤪. The only reason I’m getting one is bc my S5 doesn’t always work it crashes a lot but I have never rebooted it either in fear of loosing pictures lol.
You don't have to upgrade every year! If you have an 11 pro max, you pretty much have a 15 series lol. They all look the same in a phone case
I am still using my 7Plus which i got in 2016. Now i am planning to upgrade, but confused with 11 pro max and 12 pro max. Or should i wait for 13 Pro Max to be released in 2 months 😥
Great video Aaron
My wife and I are still using the 6s Plus.
I’m thinking of getting her the 12 Pro Max for the simple reason it has a larger battery than the 12 Pro.
I’m probably going to hold off until the Iphone 13 Pro Max or whatever it’s going to be called.
One reason we buy our iPhones outright, that’s about $4k CDN.
My biggest pet peeve with Apple is battery size.
I wish they get past the “we’ve improved everything else for lower battery consumption”
Me, put a HUGE ass battery in the iphone.
It’s like a car dealer, advertise a car that gets 30mpg. You buy it and start driving and get only 20mpg.
You final realize the 30mpg was achieved in a vacuum in unrealistic conditions.
It’s really my only complaint about iPhones.
Apple, please go HUGE battery in your iphone 13!!😁
Thanks Aaron for all you do!
my 5 year old iphone 6s plus still looking like brand new. After new battery replacement it performs well and meet all my needs. Keeping this OG for another year or so.
I currently have an iphone X and would love to switch to the iphone 11 pro max because of the almost 4000 mah battery, instead of the puny 3600 mah of the 12 pro max, I know that the 5nm processor helps with efficency but on the tests the 11 pro max still comes up as the battery king, I just hate when apple reduces the capacity of the batteries, and now not even providing a charger
Just bought my 12 pro max today. And absolutely love it. Thinner bezels. Wider and taller screen then 11 pro max and XS Max. Super smooth. Fast. And camera is amazing
the bezels, measured are actually the same size, they just appear thinner because the phone is flat
I’m rocking my 11 pro Max and it is just awesome 👏
Do you have any connection issues with the 11 pro max ?
