the iPhone 16 Pro Max is getting a pretty big upgrade no seriously it's actually physically getting bigger in some areas and so in this video we're going to go over five of the biggest changes coming to the iPhone 16 Pro Max now starting with size we are expecting the iPhone 16 Pro Max to jump up a little bit from 6.7 to 6.9 in in size and that's not going to be just a reduction in bezels or just for the screen the phone is actually going to get a little bit taller and a little bit wider than last year's iPhone 15 Pro Max while thickness will remain the same the weight will increase slightly due to the larger size if accurate it would be the first iPhone size increase since the iPhone 12 series but it would also be another blow to those who prefer a smaller device now if you're going for the iPhone 15 or 16 Pro Max you probably like or prefer bigger devices but it could be very well that that's your absolute maximum and now moving from 6.7 to 6.9 be interesting to see if people will come down to the iPhone 16 Pro instead next we have the bigger display and we did just mention that the phone is expected to go from 6.7 to 6.9 in but Apple isn't just relying on larger physical dimensions to make the viewing experience more immersive for its 16 Pro Models apple is said to be using border reduction structure or BRS technology which allows for a more Compact and efficient layout of the circuitry under the display resulting in even Slimmer 1.15 mm bezels I do personally think that Slimmer bezels makes the phone look really nice and it's Sleek but I also feel like a little bit of bezel between the screen and the actual frame of the phone helps with like having a place to put your finger so that you don't accidentally press the screen and open up an app that you didn't want to open up and I feel like the more we reduce these bezels to basically being non-existent well we're going to have a lot more of those accidental presses but of course I would love to hear from you in the comments down below about the bezels and the bigger size what do you think so far the iPhone 16 Pro Max is also getting another 48 megapixel camera this year this time it's going to be the ultrawide getting that bump but the main 48 megapixel main sensor is going to be 12% bigger and feature a stack design for better performance a 14bit analog digital converter for higher quality image data conversion and a digital gain control for better dynamic range and noise control now the one area of the iPhone that I'm very happy about getting bigger is the battery life Apple will use battery cells with increased energy density that should offer longer battery life even if it's technically the same size battery as the previous generation earlier rumors have suggested that both iPhone 16 Pro Models will use stacked Battery Technology which can result in higher capacity and a longer lifespan now according to another rumor this year's iPhone 16 proax will also boast an even bigger 30 plus hour battery life compared to the current 29h hour hours for the iPhone 15 Pro Max and being an iPhone 15 Pro Max user since day one I can tell you for sure I'm definitely not getting anywhere near 29 hours uh it's still better than any other iPhone that I could get right now just because it's the biggest but it's still not as good as some other phones out there that have larger batteries in that same form factor last but not least we do expect bigger storage capacities for the iPhone 16 Pro potentially reaching all the way up to 2 terabytes in storage and this would put the iPhone now in line with the latest iPad Pro in terms of storage configurations now I used to joke about who would need that much storage but considering that I'm actually filling up my 512 pretty easily and if I go to shoot in Pro reses log which I like to do at times it actually won't even let me do it I do have some storage available which you would think would be enough for a clip or two but it's like nope you can't do it you're going to need to reduce some space or switch to another mode it's just not happening and so uh yeah I think I might have to at least get one ter and if you're somebody like me who uses prores log or just likes to shoot a lot of high quality footage on their iPhones two terabytes might be an even better option for you but you probably still even need to get an external SSD especially if you're going to be using log but of course would love to hear from you in the comments down below what size is good enough for you and I just want to hear down in those comments just in general about all of the iPhone 16 Pro or Pro Max changes that are rumored to be happening later this year this is some down back rumors thanks so much for watching and I look forward to seeing you all in the next video
