On the YouTube channel “Honest Blog” they found out whether the cameras of the Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max and iPhone 13 Pro are different in any way. For this they
The host of the channel "Honest Blog" Philip Belikovcompared the quality of videos and photos taken with the iPhone 12 Pro Max and iPhone 13 Pro cameras. It turned out that the 12th version of the smartphone surpasses the 13th in some details.
When shooting a video, the operation of the function was evaluatedstabilization, level of detail, color rendering, as well as functionality. The front-facing camera on the 13 Pro has improved, with flare gone and colors more vibrant. Also in the 13th version, a cinema mode appeared, which is also an additional “plus” of the new model.
In Full HD 30 fps, as well as in 4K 60 fps differencealmost nothing is felt when shooting. Neither stabilization nor detail. Only at night in 4K can you notice that the picture on the 13 Pro is lighter than on the 12 Pro Max.
However, in terms of available magnification herethere is a difference: you can zoom in 3 times on the iPhone 13 Pro and 2.5 – on 12 Pro Max. However, in terms of detail, color rendition and other characteristics, they behave the same when enlarged.
In addition, 7x magnification is available on the 12 Pro Max and 9x – on 13 Pro. And again, even in the number of parts the difference is not noticeable.
It turns out that if video shooting is important to you, then it makes sense to purchase the 13th version of the iPhone only in two cases: if you need more functions and if you want to have an improved front camera.

As for the photographs, during the review, parameters such as color rendition, image clarity, HDR and white balance were important.
The presenter began with pictures of the starry sky.It came out a little better in quality on the 13 Pro: the stars are tinted blue, while the 12 Pro Max – just in white. In addition, night and evening photos in general turn out less yellow, more natural, that is, the white balance on the iPhone 13 Pro also began to work better.
Another 13th model differs in that it gives lessthe amount of noise in the photo in low light compared to the previous generation model. But in terms of detail, the devices are often very similar.
As for the increase, it wins againmore modern model. It makes it possible to zoom in 3 times when shooting instead of 2.5. At 10x magnification, the iPhone 13 Pro also produces better images.
Portrait photos come out almost identical during the day. Only at times there is a slight difference in terms of details: the iPhone 13 Pro often has an advantage here too.
At the same time, in the evening hours it is already quite noticeable that pictures of people are better taken on the 13th iPhone. Including from the point of view of image clarity.
The progress of the new model is also visible in the photo, where a person stands against the light. The colors are already coming out in the picture, more contrasting and saturated, there is no "haze", as in the 12th.
The expert also stressed that for him personally, the increase in portrait photography in the 13 Pro is not suitable: it is quite large. However, the detail and color rendition of the novelty has improved markedly.
It should be said about the new macro-mode, whichappeared in the 13th version. At the same time, if we compare the macro photo with the image on the iPhone 12 Pro Max with optical magnification, then it is almost impossible to find any differences.
The 13 Pro's sunset photo shows highlights. And there are even a little more of them than the 12 Pro Max. The rest of the pictures of nature and architecture in the evening and during the day are identical.
Indoors in artificial bright light, no matter howstrangely, the iPhone 12 Pro Max showed the best results. In the photo from the 13th, strong highlights are noticeable. But if you shoot shop windows, then you will see that the 13th just copes better with bright light.
Sometimes at night when photographing architectureon the 13th the TV did not turn on. Therefore, the 12th iPhone sometimes shot much better in these conditions. In general, when there is a lack of lighting, the images come out quite similar on both devices.
Finally, a selfie photo. Everything is ambiguous here. At times, the iPhone 12 Pro Max wins in terms of detail, and at times – 13 Pro. At the same time, the 13th copes better with highlights in the background.
In terms of photo quality in all conditions,besides the night mode, the iPhone 13 Pro has noticeable changes for the better. When it comes to night shots, sometimes the iPhone 12 Pro Max does better than the 13th generation iPhone.
