Here are 5 of the biggest changes coming to the iPhone 16 Pro Max, according to a summary from MacRumors.
1. Larger screen size - 6.9 inches According to multiple sources, the iPhone 16 Pro Max will increase in overall size, possibly becoming Apple's largest iPhone ever.
The device will have a 6.9-inch screen size (up from 6.7 inches) and will be taller and wider than last year's iPhone 15 Pro Max.
Meanwhile, the thickness will remain the same, the weight will increase slightly due to the larger size.
If this prediction is correct, this will be the first size increase for the iPhone since the iPhone 12 series.
2. Bigger screen - Thinner bezel For this year's iPhone 16 Pro models, Apple will use Border Reduction Structure (BRS) technology, allowing for a more compact and efficient under-screen circuit layout, resulting in thinner bezels.
iPhone 16 Pro Max will have a larger screen than its predecessor.

Last year, Apple reduced the bezels on the iPhone 15 Pro models by using a low-pressure injection molding (LIPO) method to shrink the display bezel size to 1.5mm (compared to about 2.2mm on the iPhone 14 models).
3. Better camera - Dual 48MP lenses The iPhone 16 Pro Max is expected to have a more advanced main camera, 12% larger, equipped with a custom 48-megapixel Sony IMX903 sensor with a stacked design.
which will bring better performance. 14-bit ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter) technology will help convert high-quality image data and DGC (Digital Gain Control) will control noise and better dynamic range.
In addition, this high-end smartphone will also be integrated with a 48-megapixel Ultra Wide camera, upgraded from the 12-megapixel lens on the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
4. Larger battery capacity - Provides longer battery life According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple will use batteries with higher energy density, which will provide longer battery life without increasing the size.
Early rumors also said that both iPhone 16 Pro models will use stacked battery technology, which could provide higher battery capacity and longer battery life.
According to another rumor, this year's iPhone 16 Pro Max will have a battery life of up to 30+ hours (longer than the 29 hours of the iPhone 15 Pro Max).
5. Larger Internal Memory Capacity - More Storage According to a rumor from Korea, Apple's upcoming iPhone 16 Pro models will have a new 2TB maximum internal storage, on par with the iPad Pro. That's thanks to Apple's move to higher-density Quad-Level Cell (QLC) NAND technology. This also allows the "Apple House" to integrate more memory into a smaller and more economical space than Triple-Level Cell (TLC) NAND - currently used by many iPhones.
