The iPhone XS Max 64GB combines a large 6.5-inch Super Retina OLED display with Apple's A12 Bionic chip, dual 12MP cameras and premium stainless-steel construction. It's a good choice for someone looking for a large-screen premium iPhone at a more accessible price, particularly when buying used or pre-owned.
📱 6.5-inch Super Retina OLED Display
The XS Max has a spacious 6.5-inch Super Retina OLED display with excellent contrast, deep blacks and vibrant colors. The large screen makes watching videos, browsing, gaming and using social media more immersive than on the smaller iPhone XS.
⚡ A12 Bionic Performance
Apple's A12 Bionic chip provides responsive performance for everyday apps, social media, streaming, web browsing and gaming. Although it's an older processor, it remains capable of handling normal smartphone tasks smoothly.
📸 Dual 12MP Camera System
The rear camera setup combines a 12MP wide camera and 12MP telephoto camera, giving you 2x optical zoom and Portrait Mode. Optical image stabilization helps reduce camera shake when taking photos or recording video.
🤳 7MP TrueDepth Front Camera
The front-facing camera is designed for selfies, video calls and Portrait Mode. It also works with the TrueDepth system used for Face ID on properly functioning units.
🔐 Face ID
Face ID provides secure facial authentication for unlocking the phone and accessing supported apps and services. For a standard fully functional XS Max, this is one of the phone's most convenient features.
💾 64GB Internal Storage
The 64GB storage capacity provides space for everyday apps, photos, music and files. However, 64GB is relatively limited by modern standards, particularly for users who record lots of videos or keep large media libraries.
🔋 Wireless Charging
The XS Max supports Qi wireless charging, allowing you to charge the phone by placing it on a compatible charging pad. It also supports wired charging through the Lightning port.
📡 4G LTE Connectivity
4G LTE connectivity provides reliable speeds for browsing, streaming, social media, video calls and other everyday online activities.
🔊 Stereo Speakers
The stereo speaker system provides fuller sound when watching videos, listening to music, playing games or making calls without headphones.
🖤 Premium Glass & Stainless-Steel Design
The XS Max features a glass front and back with a stainless-steel frame, giving it the premium look and feel associated with Apple's higher-end iPhones.
If you want a big-screen iPhone without moving into the much higher prices of newer Pro Max models, the XS Max remains an attractive option. The 6.5-inch OLED display is still one of its biggest selling points, giving you a premium viewing experience for movies, YouTube, TikTok, gaming and everyday browsing.
You also get a combination of Face ID, dual cameras, optical zoom, wireless charging and A12 Bionic performance that was firmly flagship-level when the phone launched. Its stainless-steel construction also gives it a more premium feel than many newer budget and mid-range phones.
