This year, Apple changed its line of smartphones, replacing the usual Plus models with the giant iPhone Xs Max. But what can he do?
What is the difference?
Like the Plus models, starting with the sixth generation, Max differs from the regular Xs in four ways: display size, dimensions, battery capacity and price.

Display
Comparison of the dimensions and displays of the new models with last year's iPhone 8 Plus.
- iPhone Xs: 5.8″ OLED display with True Tone | resolution 2436 x 1125 pixels (458 ppi) | support 3D Touch, HDR10 and Dolby Vision
- iPhone Xs Max: 6.5″ OLED display with True Tone | resolution 2688 x 1242 pixels (458 ppi) | support 3D Touch, HDR10 and Dolby Vision
The iPhone Xs Max has the same display as the iPhoneXs, only 0.7 inches larger. Although the resolution is slightly higher compared to the regular model, the pixel density is the same – 458 ppi. Both smartphones take full advantage of OLED and support Dolby Vision and HDR 10 technologies.
Battery
- iPhone Xs: lasts 30 minutes longer than the iPhone X | 12 hours on the Internet | 14 hours of video playback | 20 hours talk time
- iPhone Xs Max: lasts 90 minutes longer than the iPhone X | 13 hours on the Internet | 15 hours of video playback | 25 hours talk time
Since the Xs Max is equipped with a more capacious battery than a regular model, it will be able to work longer for everyday tasks. Both smartphones support fast and wireless charging technologies.

- iPhone Xs: 143.6 x 70.9 x 7.7 mm | 177 g | IP68 certificate
- iPhone Xs Max: 157.5 x 77.4 x 7.7 mm | 208 g | IP68 certificate
Since the Max version has more display and capacitybattery, this affected the weight of the device. Xs Max is 31 g heavier than regular Xs. At the same time, despite the wider and higher display, Max managed to maintain the same thickness as the younger model. Both smartphones are protected against water according to the IP68 standard. This means that they can be under water at a depth of up to 2 meters for half an hour.
Price
- iPhone Xs: from $ 149
- iPhone Xs Max: from 96,990₽
Of course, a larger screen and extended timebattery life means the Max's price tag is predictably higher. In Russia, the difference between Xs and Xs Max with the same amount of memory will be 9,000 rubles, in the USA a little less – $100.
In all other aspects – design, cameras, Face ID and build materials – these models are no different from each other. Let us remind you that both new items will go on sale.September 28thin Russia (September 21 in the USA and a number of other countries), and pre-orders will open tomorrow,September 14th.
