After a long wait, Apple has finally launched its iPhone 15 Pro Max on 22nd September, in India. The iPhone 15 Pro Max seems like a modest update to Apple’s premiere smartphone at a glance, but it packs a harder punch than expected. Based on its lighter build, speedier performance, helpful Action button, and capable software, the iPhone 15 Pro Max is already a winner. The iPhone 15 Pro Max is a comparitively expensive phone, starting at Rs 1,59,900. But it’s also one of the very best you can buy. The iPhone 15 Pro Max doesn’t reinvent the iPhone formula, but it absolutely is the most capable and polished iPhone you can buy today.

“iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max represent the best of Apple design and industry-first innovations to help enrich the everyday experiences of our users, while enabling them to unleash their creativity.” said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing.

iPhone 15 Pro Max will be available in four stunning new finishes: black titanium, white titanium, blue titanium, and natural titanium.

pros and cons of iPhone 15 pro max

The new iphone 15 pro max is packed with a number of new and exciting features which highly improve user experience. These features include:

A Stylish, Lightweight, and Durable Design: Available in 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch display sizes, iPhone 15 Pro Max features a strong and lightweight titanium design — a first for iPhone. This premium alloy — the same used in spacecraft — has one of the highest strength-to-weight ratios of any metal, making this Apple’s lightest Pro lineup ever. In addition to being a millimeter thinner, Apple also slightly rounded the front and back glass to meet the titanium frame more smoothly. That basically means the sharp, often painful edges of the iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 13 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro are finally gone. The iPhone 15 Pro Max meets the IP68 rating for protection against dust and water, which is an expected feature for a high-price flagship. This means a quick dunk in the pool or creek won’t spell watery doom for your precious phone, and you can even rinse it off if it gets dirty.

iPhone 15 Pro Max feature the thinnest borders ever on iPhone, the Ceramic Shield front cover, and new contoured edges.

The new Action button: Apple has upgraded the Pro iPhones this year with an Action button, which replaces the ringer switch. Go to the Settings app, tap on the Action Button icon, and you can completely change what the button does. Besides enabling silent mode, you can also use the button to:

  • Turn on a Focus mode
  • Open the Camera app
  • Turn on the flashlight
  • Start a Voice Memo
  • Enable the Magnifier app
  • Run a Siri Shortcut
  • Launch an accessibility tool

Incredible battery life: In terms of real-world usage, the phone easily pushed through 1.5 days between charges, if not longer. If you want or need a battery that lasts, the Pro Max is the iPhone to get. It can achieve up to 50% charge in around 30 minutes.

A17 Pro chip: Performance hasn’t been an issue for the iPhone in years, but just like always, Apple’s decided to take things up a notch yet again with its new A17 Pro chip. This chip allows iPhone 15 Pro Max to be wickedly fast. Apps open with no hesitation, scrolling and swiping feel as smooth as can be.But Apple’s big claims for the A17 Pro don’t revolve around day-to-day performance. For Apple, the A17 Pro is all about gaming. It enables mobile games to look and feel exceptionally immersive, with incredibly detailed environments and more realistic characters. If you’re an avid gamer, this phone is for you.

Pro Camera System: Through a deep integration of hardware and software, the advanced camera systems on iPhone 15 Pro Max pack the equivalent of seven pro lenses — all enabled by A17 Pro. The iPhone 15 Pro Max has a 48-megapixel (MP) main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 12MP telephoto camera. iPhone 15 Pro features an expansive 3x Telephoto camera, and iPhone 15 Pro Max provides the longest optical zoom ever on iPhone: 5x at 120 mm. The 48MP main camera is a joy to shoot with. Colors look incredible to the eye, finding a nice balance of realism and character. Photos don’t look quite as “clinical” as they sometimes did on the iPhone 14 Pro Max, and lowlight performance is also really impressive. For the first time, users can take portraits without having to switch to Portrait mode. For greater creative control, users can also adjust the focus point after the photo has been taken.

USB-C connectivity: The iPhone 15 Pro lineup offers convenient new ways to charge, find friends in busy places, and stay connected while traveling. The new iphone uses the USB‑C connector, a universally accepted standard for charging and transferring data, allowing the same cable to charge iPhone, Mac, iPad, and the updated AirPods Pro (2nd generation). Users can also charge AirPods or Apple Watch directly from iPhone with the USB‑C connector. Bid goodbye to cable clutter.

You can also connect the iPhone to input devices, such as cameras and microphones to capture footage or audio, as well as connect directly to 4K60 HDR displays for mirroring the iPhone’s display to watch movies or play games. This is a big advantage for all those content creators out there.

IOS 17: iPhone 15 Pro Max feature iOS 17, making iPhone even more personal and intuitive with new features. Messages gets a new stickers experience, more powerful search, transcription of audio messages, and Check In, which allows users to automatically notify friends and family when they have made it to their destination safely. NameDrop gives users a new way to use AirDrop to more easily share contact information by simply bringing two iPhone devices together. StandBy gives users a customisable full-screen experience with glanceable information designed to be viewed from a distance when iPhone is on its side and charging. The Phone app gets major updates, with Contact Posters that allow users to customise how they appear to their contacts, and Live Voicemail, which leverages the power of A17 Pro to see real-time on-device transcription as someone leaves a voicemail. Users can even pick up the call while the caller is leaving their message.
