There will always be some people who will buy the most expensive iPhone that Apple produces each year, either because they have got deep enough pockets to not have to consider otherwise, or because they simply have to have the best, even if the best isn’t necessary for them.

Most of us, though, have to make a far more thorough value assessment. Are the upgrades over the standard model things of which you will take advantage, or are you in danger of paying for specifications and features that you are unlikely to use?

And so it is with the iPhone 13 Pro Max, Apple’s biggest, fastest and ‘best’ iPhone to date. It’s no great departure from its predecessor, as the near-identical design will likely attest, but it has received some meaningful upgrades. The question is whether those upgrades have significant value to those of us whose core concerns are video and audio quality.

The iPhone 13 Pro Max’s price starts at ₹1,29,900 for the 128GB model but you pay handsomely for each step up the capacity ladder: 256GB and 512GB with the top 1TB model priced at ₹1,79,900. For comparison, the standard iPhone 13 starts at ₹79,900.
