What does the iPhone 16 Pro Max bring after two months of use? A bigger screen, sharper sound, and impressive battery life, and what else is new?
This article by author William Gallagher of Apple Insider will give you an overview of the iPhone 16 Pro Max after two months of launch.
The iPhone 16 Pro Max may not bring any drastic changes compared to the previous version, but there are still some improvements that are worth the money you have to spend.
The iPhone 16 Pro Max isn't much different from the 15 Pro Max, but there are still some worthwhile improvements.

The iPhone 16 Pro Max is an interesting device with a slightly larger screen than its predecessor, but the iPhone 16 Pro also has a larger screen.
And while the 16 Pro Max has a new Camera Control button, all models in the iPhone 16 lineup have it.
The simple way to describe the iPhone 16 Pro Max is that it is similar to the rest of the models and not much different from the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
However, when used daily for a long time, the difference is not quite like that.
Surprise with iPhone 16 Pro Max
One of the surprises of using the iPhone 16 Pro Max is that you often forget about its size.
Although the screen is larger, up to 6.9 inches compared to 6.7 inches on the previous version, the size is not uncomfortable.

However, it's a bit of a waste that iOS 18 on the iPhone 16 Pro Max doesn't look much different from its predecessors,
failing to take advantage of the larger screen space to add more app icons.
Watching movies and TV on the big screen is a pleasure, even though the resolution and brightness are unchanged from before. I also use the iPhone 16 Pro Max as an e-reader and have finished a few books on it instead of a Kindle or iPad.
Daily Experience
Call audio on the iPhone 16 Pro Max is clearer and sharper than previous versions. Every call I made had better sound quality. Thanks to the good speaker quality, I often left the phone on the table and used Siri to put it on speakerphone, a convenient feature when you're busy with other things.

Camera Control button in photography
Camera Control is a button that lets you quickly open the camera and take photos. However, I often forget where it is and have to spend time looking for it. If the button were more raised or recessed, it might be easier to find.
One notable improvement is that Camera Control now allows you to activate Visual Intelligence – a technology that recognizes objects in photos. Just hold the Camera Control button for a moderate amount of time, Visual Intelligence will work and recognize objects in the frame, helping users get more information quickly.
It will take users a little time to get used to the new camera controls.

Photographic Styles
I was impressed with the new Photographic Styles feature. Unlike regular filters, Photographic Styles tweaks every nuance of an image to create a unique style. This allows photos to change style without affecting quality.
