Apple iPhone Xs Max: Pros & Cons
8.4
out of 10
MSP SCORE
Pros
Apple iPhone Xs Max comes with an exquisite design with a notch on top. The screen is worthy of all the praise and is appropriate for watching videos and other tasks. The camera performance is excellent and the same goes for the software and hardware performance on the phone. One of the major pros comes in the form of 5-year software update promise from Apple, which means that even after five years this phone will be in sync with the latest iOS version.
Cons
The first con that comes in our mind is the insanely high pricing of this smartphone, however, that's just how Apple's brand value works. Another shortcoming comes in the form of the lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack and also the 3.5mm adapter in the box, which is usually provided by other brands that launch a smartphone without the 3.5mm headphone jack. Even after paying such high price, the buyers still don't get fast charger in the bundle, they will have to buy it separately from Apple.
Verdict
The iPhone XS Max offers substantially improved camera over the iPhone X and iPhone 8 Plus alongside dual-SIM feature (with iOS 12.1 update), but in other areas the improvements remain incremental. For the ones who can't make do without Apple ecosystem and want a large screen with optimised camera performance or the dual-SIM feature, they should upgrade to the iPhone XS Max. Otherwise, there are better alternatives in the segment, and they will also save you some cash to buy other stuff.
Apple iPhone Xs Max Details
Face ID, Stereo Speaker, and Dual Rear Camera
The Apple iPhone Xs Max is the bigger brother of the iPhone Xs. The device ships with significant changes including a more prominent display. The iPhone Xs Max also ships with IP68 certification which makes the smartphone water and dust resistant. Similar to the iPhone X, this one even ships with the Face ID feature for face unlock functionality that also works in dark surroundings. The design also takes inspiration from the iPhone X with glass body enclosed in a steel frame. Stereo speakers enhance the multimedia experience on the iPhone Xs Max. The device sports dual 12+12-megapixel rear shooters bundled with features like Portrait Mode, Portrait Lighting, and 4K 60fps Video Recording to name a few.

A12 Bionic Chipset, iOS 12, and AMOLED Screen

Nice phone and camera.
By manishyadavpahalwan124, 43 months ago
New iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max went on sale. Several reports suggested that there were fewer hardware issues. But iPhone users lined up overnight to secure a device on the launch day.

Best iPhone ever.
By rakeshdivescool, 44 months ago
Got it hands-on, loved it.
It's so slim compared to my previous iPhone X, and the iOS 12 update just makes the phone even snappier. Loved it in all the way.
