DxOMark has published a full review of the Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max camera specs. Featuring a 48MP main sensor, a 48MP ultra-wide sensor, and a 12MP telephoto lens, the device was subjected to extensive testing to evaluate its performance in a variety of lighting conditions and shooting scenarios.

The iPhone 16 Pro Max received a total score of 157, placing it in fourth place in the Ultra Premium camera phone segment, behind devices such as the Honor Magic 6 Pro, Google Pixel 9 Pro XL, and Huawei Pura 70 Ultra.

Key takeaways from the DxOMark review:

• Video Excellence: iPhone 16 Pro Max has established itself as the video leader among smartphones, outperforming even its closest competitors in overall video quality with exceptional stabilization, low-light performance, and color accuracy.
• Photo performance: Although the iPhone 16 Pro Max is not the leader in the photography rankings, it delivers impressive results, especially in well-lit conditions. The autofocus system is fast and accurate, and the color reproduction is natural.
• Scaling Limits: The device’s scaling capabilities, while respectable, aren’t limitless. Image quality drops significantly when zoomed in beyond 2x, and the ultrawide sensor doesn’t offer the same level of detail as the main sensor, despite its higher resolution.

Overall, the iPhone 16 Pro Max is a versatile camera phone that takes great video and delivers quality photos, but users who want the absolute best image quality at all zoom levels may find other options more suitable.

Additional points:

• The device’s night mode is effective, but it produces more noise and less detail than some of its rivals.
• The iPhone 16 Pro Max’s new photo styles and editing features could improve the overall user experience, though they’re not covered by DxOMark.
• For those who prefer shooting portraits and moving images, the iPhone 16 Pro Max’s fast autofocus and accurate exposure make it a solid choice.
