iPhone 16 Pro Max: 3 Months Later

Three months strips away the honeymoon period. Here's the honest truth.

Battery: Still Excellent

90 days, 87 charge cycles, 99% health. 8-9 hours SOT consistently.

Camera: Consistent Excellence

48MP sensor produces reliable results in every condition. 5x zoom is our default outdoor lens.

Software: iOS 19 Is Mature

Rock-solid. Apple Intelligence features becoming genuinely useful.

Build Quality

Titanium frame still looks new after 3 months without a case. Two desk-height drops, no damage.

Verdict

Still the most complete smartphone you can buy.
