iPhone 17 Pro Max: What’s Inside The Box
Apple keeps things minimal once again. Alongside the iPhone 17 Pro Max, the box includes a braided USB-C cable.

iPhone 17 Pro Max: New Design & Display
The Pro Max trades titanium for aluminium, which the company claims makes the frame both lighter and more durable. Apple says the new material also helps with heat dissipation, which ties into the redesigned vapour-chamber cooling system.
The 6.9-inch Super Retina XDR display is now brighter than ever at 3,000 nits peak brightness, with an anti-reflective coating and a tougher Ceramic Shield that Apple claims is three times more scratch-resistant and four times harder to crack.
Spec sheet aside, the Pro Max sits nicely in your palm. It's chunky, but you knew that already. The ProMotion display looks great as always, and when you actually scroll through or switch through
iPhone 17 Pro Max: Cameras & Performance
Apple isn’t holding back on imaging. The iPhone 17 Pro Max carries three 48MP sensors, with the standout being a redesigned telephoto lens offering 8× lossless optical zoom. While the expanded camera island design may divide opinions, early results in low light look impressive.
Performance is handled by the A19 Pro chip, and thanks to the aluminium chassis and vapour chamber, the phone claims to maintain cooler temps even under heavy loads like gaming or 4K editing.
