Let’s check the good and the bad of the iPhone 15 Pro Max camera.

Pros:

  • Excellent camera experience for photography and videography overall thanks to enhanced HDR imaging format
  • Standard-setting experience in video that is consistently ahead of the competition
  • Excellent for capturing portraits, showcasing impressive skin-tone accuracy and face exposure in various lighting conditions
  • Zero shutter lag, allowing to capture the decisive moment in most conditions
  • Significantly improved zoom capabilities for long ranges over previous iPhone models
  • Excellent and refined background blur in portraits that can be added even after a photo has been taken

Cons:

  • Limited zoom quality before the telephoto camera takes over
  • In very low-light conditions, takes longer to capture the moment, and images can be grainy
  • Some of the image-quality innovations like photo HDR are currently visible only within Apple’s ecosystem

According to the official specs sheet, the iPhone 15 Pro Max equips a 48MP main camera (24 mm, ƒ/1.78 aperture, second‑generation sensor‑shift optical image stabilization, 100% Focus Pixels, support for super‑high‑resolution photos (24MP and 48MP). The phone also has a 12MP Ultra Wide camera with a 120-degree field of view, and 100% Focus Pixels. This model offers a 12MP 2x Telephoto (enabled by a quad‑pixel sensor).

Huawei:

Earlier this year, Huawei made a comeback in the dual flagship era with P60 Pro. This phone takes the XMAGE photography to the next level and establishes itself in the first place. Therefore, the iPhone 15 Pro Max has to settle below the Huawei P60 Pro on DXOMARK for the time being.

However, DXOMARK also has a review pending of the Huawei Mate 60 Pro on the camera evaluation platform, which we may see very soon.
