![]() ![]() This is a 6.7-inch Super Retina OLED display with 2796x1290 pixels. There is no change in the display from the iPhone 14 Pro Max here, and that’s no bad thing. (Image credit: Future) iPhone 15 Pro Max display I’ve been using the blue titanium model and I feel the titanium band around the edge of the phone actually gets fewer fingermarks than the stainless steel 14 Pro Max did. Even the rear camera array is difficult to see any differences in, despite the improved cameras. Aside from the action button and the fractionally larger port for the USB-C charging. Visually, there is little noticeable difference between the 14 Pro Max and 15 Pro Max. On the 15 Pro Max, the edge of the titanium is more pronounced and you can feel it when you run your finger over it – not enough to be sharp but more noticeable. While you could feel this edge between the back glass and the stainless steel on the 14 Pro models, it was smooth to the touch. One result of the new titanium enclosure is that there is a more distinct edge where it meets the back glass. Maybe in time, it will become more natural. With the iPhone 15 Pro Max, I did set the action button to start the camera in selfie mode but often forgot to use it. ![]() I have the action button on my Apple Watch Ultra set to start a workout, which is actually useful (and I still forget to use it). The action button on the side of the phone is a nice touch, however, I didn't find myself using it particularly. The first time I held the device it felt very different – that combination of lighter weight and the feel of the titanium means you won’t mistake this for any other model. A saving of 19 grams doesn’t sound like much but if you’re holding the phone up for long periods, you’ll appreciate it. The weight difference is more noticeable in the hand. It is slightly deeper though (by 0.4mm) due to the new camera array. The differences are small – 0.8mm in height and 0.9mm in width – but you can see it when placed next to the 14. The bezels have been reduced around the screen of the iPhone 15 Pro Max and rather than make the display larger, the phone has been made smaller. (Image credit: Future) iPhone 15 Pro Max design This Pro chip is also Apple’s first 3-nanometer unit and promises to seriously boost the phone’s gaming abilities. Previous chips have used the Bionic designation, which suggests that we may continue to see different chips used on the Pro and non-pro models (the iPhone 15 uses the A16 Bionic). There’s a new chip powering the Pro Max which is the A17 Pro. This provides up to 20x faster transfer speeds on the Pro Max and can even be used to charge accessories like the Apple Watch and AirPods. Oh, and in case you hadn’t heard, all the new iPhones, including the 15 Pro Max now feature a USB-C port for charging. Or you can still use it to mute and unmute the ringer with a long press rather than a switch. This can be customised to activate a range of features like Focus modes, camera, voice memos or any shortcuts, with just a single press. One thing you’ll notice on the exterior of the iPhone 15 Pro Max is that the ringer mute switch has been replaced by an action button. The telephoto camera in the rear array now has a 5x magnification thanks to a clever tetraprism design which gives it an equivalent focal length of 120mm (in old 35mm film money). The bigger news – or at least bigger in the frame – is the changes to the camera system. It’s both incredibly strong and very lightweight, making it ideal for spacecraft (it was used on the Mars Rover) and makes the iPhone 15 Pro Max lighter than ever. ![]() The enclosure of the Pro and Pro Max models is made from aerospace-grade titanium rather than stainless steel. Titanium is this year’s headline feature and featured heavily on the announcement. (Image credit: Future) iPhone 15 Pro Max features and what’s new
