iPhone 18 Pro Max camera

The iPhone 18 Pro Max has a familiar 3-camera setup, but this time features Apple’s new 48MP Fusion main camera with variable aperture. The aperture can open wider in darker environments to let in about 50% more light, or be narrowed for better depth of field in shots like group photos.

There are also new Pro Controls for manual camera settings, including white balance, histogram, aperture and shutter speed. For video, there are cinematic-style effects applied to regular video after capture, 4K Dolby Vision time-lapse, and updated AudioMix features.

Performance and battery

The iPhone 18 Pro Max runs on the new A20 Pro chip, built using 2-nanometre technology. Apple says it has a faster CPU, more powerful 7-core GPU and dual Neural Engine for better on-device AI performance.

Battery life is the major advantage of the Pro Max. Apple says the iPhone 18 Pro Max offers up to 45 hours of video playback on eSIM-only models and up to 30 hours per charge, based on its real-world battery model. It also supports faster wired charging, reaching up to 50% charge in around 15 minutes.

Apple Intelligence and Siri AI

The iPhone 18 Pro Max supports Apple Intelligence and the new Siri AI. Apple says Siri can understand personal context across apps, answer questions about what’s on screen, take action in apps and help with writing or editing wherever you type.

Siri AI will launch in English beta first, with French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese and Spanish support expected in October. Some features may have usage limits because they rely on server-based models.

How does the iPhone 18 Pro Max compare to previous models?

Compared with the iPhone 17 Pro Max, the iPhone 18 Pro Max focuses on better performance, longer battery life and more camera control, rather than a dramatic redesign.

The introduction of the variable-aperture camera and pro controls will give a real boost to creative control and let you capture even better photos in a variety of lighting conditions.

When is the iPhone 18 Pro Max coming out?

The iPhone 18 Pro Max is available to pre-order from Saturday, 12 September and will be available from 18 September.

How much will the iPhone 18 Pro Max cost?

Apple announced pricing from $1,299 for the iPhone 18 Pro Max, and the UK price is expected to match this at £1,299.
