Frequently Asked Questions

The iPhone 12 Pro Max features a larger 6.7-inch display, a bigger battery, and a more advanced camera system with a larger sensor on the wide camera and an improved telephoto lens with a longer focal length.

The LiDAR scanner improves augmented reality (AR) experiences by creating a depth map of the environment. It also helps with low-light autofocus for the camera, making it faster and more accurate in dark conditions.

No, ProRes video recording was introduced with the iPhone 13 Pro series. The iPhone 12 Pro Max supports Dolby Vision HDR video recording, but not ProRes.

The iPhone 12 Pro Max has a larger image sensor on the wide camera, which lets in more light for better low-light performance. It also has a different telephoto lens with a 2.5x optical zoom instead of the 2x on the standard 12 Pro.
