iPhone 13 Pro Max

My phone, Vivers 3.0, is an iphone 13 pro max from summer 2022. [...] She has a big chip taken out of her screen. Just a tiny bit of lag. I bought her to last me 5 years, I’ll accept nothing less.

I own the 17 Promax … it feels inferior in hand; and despite it beating My 13 Promax phone on paper , ithe 13 Promax captured My heart by surviving beautifully through 2 years of grueling Highway Construction . [...]

I've had my 13 PM a bit shy of 2 years. I bought it used as my new car didn't support Android Auto, and I wanted the cheapest iPhone which had a 120Hz display. I was always planning to replace it when the 17 came out as it was rumoured to get a high refresh display, but outside of USB-C there's genuinely no significant benefits to me in upgrading. [...]

I bought a certified refurbished 13 Pro Max on Apple website last year. [...] Battery life is excellent! [...]

I also own iPhone 13 Pro max will make it a year completion after this December. It is one of the finest gadget Apple ever made and the intelligence of macro photography, 120hz display, shrink notch and big aperture triple cameras, massive battery with great power control and superb A15 silicon, this is a huge leap from their previous lining. [...]

[...] And just now, battery went down to 96%. [...]

Battery is at 93% after a year of use now. I use it for everything I can when I’m not around my IPad Pro 12 in. [...] Edit my many photos I take using adobe photoshop, oh yeah and can’t forget my clash of clans lol. [...]

Got the 13 pro max Sierra blue been a great phone best iPhone I've owned still at 100% battery heath after 10 months only charge it before I go to bed still usually on 57% it lasts all day

I love my 13 pro m. I’ve had it now for 11 months and I’m at 98% batt health. It’s definitely a beast in its own right and won’t upgrade until the 15 or hell, the 16. [...] ❤👍🏼🤘🏼

I have my iPhone 13 Pro Max for 4 years now and the only problem I really have is storage and the battery. I'm debating if I just replace the battery and let this run another year... [...]

I bought my 13 PM last year October. The battery health was 100% when it was November, 2022. [...] I was thinking it’s dropped because of the update or the age of the iPhone…

I'm on the iPhone 13 pro max since launch and my phone comfortable gets through an entire day of usage. [...] If the battery fubars in one of the next years I wouldn't be upset, 5+ years of battery life is enough. But I also don't see it failing me any time soon on battery. [...]

On my iphone 13 pro max when I pull down the notification drawers, the list stutters heavily, every single time. [...] Transparency on such commonly used functions are not just unnecessary, they add negative value. Add to that the stutters that did not exist before and you have the making of a frustrating experience. [...]

I have an iphone 13 pro max. On many screens, the UI now stutters when it was smooth before. [...] And it comes at a cost of making the UI stutter. [...]

I have an iPhone 13 pro max. Bought it on release, never used a case and it’s still in perfect condition. I don’t drop it once or twice a month though, but definitely dropped it before.

[...] One of the nice things about the Apple Store though was not just realizing that no one else was going to sell their differently designed products better than they were and the need for well-organized, spacious, inviting stores that were a fun attraction on a visit to the mall -- they really improved their customer service process. [...] I'm sure there is no 100% satisfaction, but I took my iPhone 13 Pro Max in for a battery replacement... and ultimately, they ended up giving me a new iPhone 13 Pro Max because the camera sensor didn't work after battery replacement. [...] I even ran into the customer service rep at a local pub and nearly bought him a beer because he was so helpful. [...]

[...] I used it to watch YouTube, check my email, listening to music, send texts, make calls, and GPS. I use my current phone, an iPhone 13 Pro Max, to watch YouTube, check my email, listen to music, send texts, make calls, and GPS. Obviously the newer phone is better, everything is faster, higher resolution screen, much better camera, etc...but it's not like I am doing anything with it that I wasn't doing in 2012 with my cheapy Android.

[...] For example, on the iPhone 13 Pro Max, You cannot set the battery to stop charging at 80%. [...] So can you say that the iPhone 13 Promax is actually supported for so many years with the latest and greatest iOS When apple doesn't actually bring these new features. [...]

[...] Once a losslessly compressed image is processed by post-processing software, the data is first decompressed, and you work with the data as if there had never been any compression at all. [...] RAW photos can be compressed, but if they are then they are "RAW Compressed" Files, not "RAW" files.Apple is not saying you are shooting RAW Compressed, it says you are shooting ProRAW photos, which is slick marketing because everyone thinks they are shooting RAW photos but ProRAW is not RAW. The iPhone 12 gave you a choice to shoot RAW or ProRAW, but my iPhone 13 ProMax only allows the ProRAW option. I have no option to avoid Apple processing my photos anymore. [...]

May be not an earth-shattering update vs. [...] As I am on an iPhone 13 Pro Max, still in total absolutely a worthy upgrade for me. [...] The advantages vs the 15 I can see so far: - updated SOC, somewhat faster, but up to 30% more power-efficient which turns into - larger battery life. [...] - better camera: 48mp wide angle, 120mm tele lens, 4k 120 Hz. - a bit larger screen, too bad they at least didn't name any other screen enhancements - the shutter button. A ton of functionality built into one single button. [...] That should greatly improve its usage as a camera. [...] While there wasn't any big surprise or outstanding change, for a year over year update a lot of things and definitely very nice for everyone with an older phone than the 15.

(this articles formatting was super hard to read, I love the web 1.0 "just get it out there" vibe but man I wish CSS had a good "reasonable default" for lots of text) I'm a huge fan of kagi and have been paying for it for as long as paying for it has been possible - that said, I think the author is spot on about the long term viability of the project considering their limited funding, limited employees, very wide (yet unproven) interests AND a leader who's maybe not so receptive to feedback. For example I was part of the Orion beta and I left feedback in the discord that it took 30 seconds on the then top of the line iPhone (13 Pro Max?) to load the interface which made it hard to use and I thought it was unreasonably slow and he said something like "that's not slow it's totally reasonable" and since then I decided it wasn't worth leaving any more feedback and have since left the community.

[...] I got AppleCare+ for my iPhone 13 Pro Max in Canada. [...] The only problem was the SIM was also broken :(

Move on from my 13 pro max to 15 pro max after 1 month and 1 week i decided to go back to my 13 pro max (will replace a battery in 5-6 months then good to go for next 2-3 years).

[...] Finding this refurbished and aesthetically extremely good condition plus amazing price compared to the latest 16,17 etc is just phenomenal. [...] The camera is IMMEASURABLY better! Screen. [...]

I have the 13 Pro Max, the camera is faulty, so I got a refurbished 15 Pro Max in good condition a year ago. In spite of being a newer model, I prefer the 13 Pro Max. I think I love the thick bezels and the notch on the 13 Pro Max 😅🤭

[...] I put a 3rd party extended battery in mine and it’s a beast. My FaceID sensor is broken, and I feel like my cameras aren’t perfect. [...]

Still got my old 13 Pro max as my work phone now, main a 16 Pro Max, honestly still holds up very very well, UI is smooth, display is amazing it doesn't seem that slow either - Really the only major difference is Camera, battery, and Bezels - Performance wise day to day you'll notice little. I do really like the stainless steel and polished band look, feels really premium and heavy like a good expensive watch. Still a solid phone to this day, but would defo upgrade purely for Camera and Battery

It's really one of, if not the best, iPhones, especially the battery life. I still use it with a degraded battery and still get very Stellar battery life, and that Sierra Blue color is the best-looking color I've ever seen. [...]

I scored a near mint graphite 13 Pro Max this year for $150 because the cellular modem is dead so it only works on WiFi. [...]

I’m still rocking this as my daily driver. I tried out the 16 pro max last year and actually ended up returning it because I couldn’t justify the price as my 13 pro max can do almost everything

I just got a 13 pro max with 100 percent battery and after using the screen for 9hrs the battery was still on 35 percent battery and the battery I tested it and it lasted me 12 hrs of screen on time and with the power saving mode it got 11 hrs of screen on time with 40 percent remaining

I just got my sierra blue iPhone 13 Pro Max 3 days ago! I know I’m a little late to the party but I wanted to upgrade from my iPhone 11 Pro Max but needed a sim tray and a cheaper iPhone so I went with the 13 pro max and I couldn’t be happier. [...] I’ve been watching videos and comparing it to the 11 pro max since shortly before I got it and came to the conclusion that it’s still a viable option in 2024! [...]

I had troubles with my 13 Pro Max, including battery issues, sporadic shut downs, and screen blackouts with still touch functionality and sound. I had the rear system rebuilt, but that didn't solve the problem, so now I'm getting an express replacement because of the problems.

Decided after using my friends 14 pro max for a whole day to stay with 13 pro max, apart from the dynamic island I didn’t even realise it was a different phone, my personal opinion is if you have a 13 pro max don’t pay a penny to go to 14 pro max unless your an everyday serious camera user or want the dynamic island

I’ve had a 13 mini since release with no case or screen protector and mine is in a similar shape to this video I’ve even dropped it the camera lenses are perfect still my battery is in the 80s

[...] Battery and performance are insane. [...] It still worth it every single cent.

I bought my 13 Pro Max (1 TB) day one at Verizon. [...] I have zero reason to go 14 as it would be money ill-spent. I enjoy my cameras, I take great video, and I have virtually unlimited battery. [...] Had my kid not broken his 6s Plus, I would have stayed on the 11 Pro Max (500 GB). [...] Current battery life = 97% and local storage is 99.4 GB of the 1 TB free.

[...] I’m visually disabled so I wanted a bigger screen and I didn’t want to deal with any issues from the new camera cut out. I’ll probably keep this one till Apple makes one worth upgrading to. The Fold 4 was an option but I had doubts about the durability of it.

I went with the 13 Pro Max coming from a Galaxy S22 Ultra because of the watch, which I really like. The Ultra watch really got me. I will keep this phone and see what the 15 version brings. Furthermore, my whole echo system revolves around Apple. iPad, 16" laptop, AirPods 2nd gen, and all my friends have iPhones, so it made sense. Not knocking on the Samsung product, because the feature set on that phone is awesome. But having everything unified in one system made sense. So in my case, it's still a win.

[...] I haven’t even used half of the space I could and also am still sitting at 98% battery life considering I pre-ordered the phone as well. I’m rocking a Lifeproof NEXT case w/ screen protector and the phone still has no scratches on it, very clean and use it daily as my main device. [...]

I got my 13 Pro Max the day it got in the stores. I really take care of my battery and only operate in the charge levels 50-65% I still have 100% battery capacity left.

[...] It's possible that I had a defective unit, but regardless of the reason it was a laggy mess, that got terrible battery life, and sometimes simply wouldn't finish turning on (it would just stay on a black screen indefinitely). I bought it in July of 2023 and I ended up giving it to a family member and buying a refurb iPhone 13 Pro Max, which I still have and it has been considerably better. [...]

[...] I'm on a iPhone 13 Pro Max right now that's still doing well but starting to show battery capacity age. Plus, it's the only non-USB-C device I own so I'd be happy to get rid of it.

[...] And today at current prices, all smart phones are investments not just arbitrary purchases. Optical zoom more than anything else a software item, and yes I understand that that is commonly called digital zoom, but many budget brands refer to digital zoom as optical because it all processes through the camera lens, so optical, and the 13 can only not do it (zoom in and out as far) because Apple won't update the camera software to allow the 13 to do the same, the camera and the processor are fully capable. [...] I use McAfee on my oldest devices that are not receiving security updates anymore, and Surf shark on everything else. [...] A good security suite is not a drop in replacement for security updates, but it will protect your device and as long as you practice good Internet practices, it is more than enough to stretch your phones or tablets life expectancy out till it is just not usable anymore. [...]

I'm an iPhone 13 Pro Max owner, and I regret choosing the 128GB capacity when I bought it. [...] (My battery is currently at 79% of its maximum capacity.) I do want to switch because of the capacity and the USB-C port, but since I don't play mobile games, the 13 Pro Max's performance is still quite capable for me. Also, the refresh rate doesn't really matter to me... [...]

[...] Could there be differences in the way these networks manage cellular connections, such as not utilizing 5G when 4G would save battery and/or provide a better signal. I've noticed my device, an iPhone 13 Pro Max, will stay on LTE until I start downloading or streaming something. [...]

Not much of anything has changed in the last 6. [...] It's still basically the iPhone X with a couple of screen size options. Yeah the chips are faster on paper, and the photos have gone from really good to better, but it's a really incremental product these days These kind of comments seem to be low effort because they don't really show an insight into what has changed. [...] The improvements in camera, screen brightness, colors and many others strongly disagree with such claims. A used iPhone 13 Pro Max in great condition is about $450 these days where I a.m. [...] It will do well for some more years (software wise) and probably need a battery replacement around that same time (depending on how it's been used till now).

[...] The leap from the original iPhone to the 4 was absolutely worth buying a new device over IMHO. [...] Not much of anything has changed in the last 6. [...] It's still basically the iPhone X with a couple of screen size options. Yeah the chips are faster on paper, and the photos have gone from really good to better, but it's a really incremental product these days (the notch has a notch now). A used iPhone 13 Pro Max in great condition is about $450 these days where I am. [...]

[...] Unless you're really into photography-- to the point where you'll be using the large file size Pro RAW mode (the only mode where you visually see the use of non-binned 48MP)-- then I'd say stick with your 11 or 12 until next year when the 15 should get a greater zoom lens.. [...] First- the 14 Pro screen has a noticeable higher peak brightness, and appears more white (with and without True Tone enabled), compared to the 13P that has a slightly more subdued and warmer tone. The brightness difference is noticeable indoors when I like it bright for editing pics, and especially outdoors, and the color difference may be important for those who are picky about getting the correct white balance in their pictures (and edit on their phone before posting). The cameras. [...] The 14 main lens is I believe 24mm instead of 26mm, so it's slightly wider so you get just a little more in the picture. [...]

I bought my wife an iPhone 11 Pro Max in 2020, and, knock on wood, outside of replacing the battery it has been going on like a champ. I've offered to buy her a replacement phone but at this point I think she's kind of curious as to how much life she can get out of it. I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max; I bought it in 2023 but it was a refurb so I don't actually know how old it actually is. [...]
