Das iPhone 17 Pro Max wird als Apple's Flaggschiff für Kreative vorgestellt, das ein 6,9-Zoll-OLED-ProMotion-Display, den A19 Pro-Chip und eine vielseitige Triple-48MP-Kameraanordnung kombiniert. Rezensenten heben die klassenführende Akkulaufzeit (4823 mAh, 5088 mAh beim eSIM-Modell) und das schnellere USB-C (USB 3 bis zu 10 Gb/s) als wichtige Vorteile für Foto- und Video-Workflows hervor. Das Telefon bietet darüber hinaus Funktionen wie LIDAR, Unterstützung für ProRes RAW-Videos und Dampfkammerkühlung für anhaltende Leistung. Die meisten Verkaufsstellen geben dem Gerät gute Noten (um die 80 %) und bezeichnen es als die beste Option für alle, die das größte Display, die längste Akkulaufzeit und die besten Kameras wollen. Häufige Kritikpunkte sind der hohe Preis, das höhere Gewicht und die weitgehend inkrementellen Updates im Vergleich zu früheren Pro Max Modellen. Für viele Nutzer bleibt das reguläre iPhone 17 das bessere Angebot, während das Pro Max für Power-User und mobile Kreative empfohlen wird.

Testberichte für das Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max
Welches iPhone ist das Beste? Natürlich das iPhone 17 Pro Max, wird Apple antworten, denn im neuen iPhone-Topmodell sind die Superlative zuhause. Sogar ein Upgrade lohnt sich, denn gegenüber dem Vorgänger wurden viele kleine Details verbessert. Bei der Akkulaufzeit erweist sich das 17 Pro Max sogar als neues iPhone-Nonplusultra.

EN→DEI’m still in the midst of evaluating the iPhone Air and iPhone 17, but I’d say that the iPhone Air is a very different type of phone. Because of its super-svelte body, it demands some sacrifice from its users. The iPhone 17, on the other hand, is the best regular iPhone we’ve had in years, and I think it should be the iPhone most people should get.

EN→DEThe iPhone 17 Pro Max is the phone to get if you love iOS and you want a big screen and the longest battery life possible. The iPhone 17 Pro is also great, though, if you prefer a design that’s more compact. I would personally not upgrade if you have an iPhone 15 Pro Max or iPhone 16 Pro Max. The enhancements aren’t compelling enough. But if you’re coming from an older iPhone 14 Pro Max, I could definitely recommend stepping up to the new iPhone. You’ll enjoy a larger and brighter 6.9-inch display on Apple’s newer phone, considerably faster performance, a tougher design, longer battery life, a better and smarter Center Stage front camera and other perks like Audio Mix for your videos. And even though there’s no true killer Apple Intelligence feature yet, the iPhone 17 Pro Max is in line to get the new and improved Siri when it’s finally ready.

EN→DEA good chunk of iPhone 17 Pro owners won't necessarily stretch the limits of its processing power, or its video capture tech. I suspect the same could be said for last year's phone, and Apple's flagship from the year before that. Nonetheless, improvements in the iPhone 17, along with the arrival of the iPhone Air, make it easier to list the reasons you might want to go Pro this time. It has the best battery life, the most powerful chipset, and, in the iPhone 17 Pro Max, the biggest screen. It has more cameras and an ever-useful longer telephoto lens; LIDAR where the others go without; and a much faster USB-C port (USB 3 for up to 10 Gb/s, versus the others' 480 MB/s USB 2) with support for video capture to an external SSD. I'd say the iPhone 17 Pro Max gets the biggest bang for your buck on display and battery life.

EN→DEThe iPhone 17 Pro Max is a big upgrade for enthusiasts. The performance jump is actually tangible and will improve your experience if you want that iPhone to be your mobile gaming console. The new ProRes RAW for video will unlock new possibilities for current or aspiring videographers or influencers that are looking to up their game. The new selfie camera is plain cool. But let's be real. Another year — another iPhone. Predictable, solid, well-performing and well-enduring. Those things were true for the iPhone 16 Pro Max and 15 Pro Max before it. And they still ring true — they are not suddenly bad phones because there's a new shiny toy out. In other words, if you are happy with your current iPhone Pro Max and don't feel like something's bogging you down in performance or battery — maybe you can skip the upgrade for another year.

EN→DEThis is the iPhone for people who would take advantage of a bigger screen, extra battery life, and a telephoto lens. If you go to concerts and don’t get tickets down the front, this is for you. However, if you are still happy with your iPhone 14 Pro Max or newer, this isn’t an essential year to upgrade. There are a lot of benefits to upgrading this year, but if you’re still being served by your current phone, it won’t be life-changing. Even the 13 Pro Max is a borderline case, though more on the side of upgrading for those who would like to. Anything older than an iPhone 11 isn’t eligible for the upgrade to iOS 26, so an upgrade for you is more essential. The iPhone 12 generation would benefit enormously, though there’s still another year of iOS updates to be enjoyed.

EN→DEApple's iPhone 17 Pro Max is a humongous phone that does a lot and costs a lot. There are plenty of reasons to buy it, and some to skip it. The 17 Pro Max is the best iPhone for creators who need a do-it-all phone. Not only does it take fantastic pictures and shoot crystal-clear video, it has a super-bright screen to edit your posts, the fastest radios for uploading them, and the epic battery life you need to capture content all day and all night while on the go. For everyone else, the regular iPhone 17 is the top value-for-dollar iPhone available and should be all you need, earning it our Editors' Choice award. But if you want the biggest screen, the longest battery life, or the best cameras, the iPhone 17 Pro Max will make you very happy.

Mark goes hands-on with the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max at the Apple event, and this flagship finally gives Pro users fun color options with Cosmic Orange joining the party. And the huge camera "plateau" on the back will turn some heads. But the new iPhone 17 Pro Max is about much more than just looks. You get a 48MP telephoto camera with 8x zoom, a powerful A19 Pro chip and much bigger battery. Watch this video for Mark's first impressions and how the iPhone 17 Pro vs Pro Max compare. Stay tuned for our full iPhone 17 Pro Max review.

Apple A19 Pro 6-Core GPU: Eine schnelle integrierte Grafikkarte, mit der der Apple A19 SoC ausgestattet ist. Diese iGPU hat 6 Kerne und ist Raytracing-fähig.
Diese Klasse ist noch durchaus fähig neueste Spiele flüssig darzustellen, nur nicht mehr mit allen Details und in hohen Auflösungen. Besonders anspruchsvolle Spiele laufen nur in minimalen Detailstufen, wodurch die grafische Qualität oft deutlich leidet. Diese Klasse ist nur noch für Gelegenheitsspieler empfehlenswert. Der Stromverbrauch von modernen Grafikkarten in dieser Klasse ist dafür geringer und erlaubt auch bessere Akkulaufzeiten.
» Weitere Informationen gibt es in unserem Notebook-Grafikkartenvergleich und der Benchmarkliste.
A19 Pro: Der Apple A19 Pro integriert sechs 64-Bit-fähige ARM-Kerne, die Apple selbst designed hat, sowie eine NPU mit 16 Kernen. Die zwei Performance-Kerne können mit bis zu 4,26 GHz takten und die vier Effizienzkerne mit bis zu 2,6 GHz. Im Unterschied zum Non-Pro-Modell, bietet der A19 Pro größere L2 und SLC Caches.» Weitere Infos gibt es in unserem Prozessorvergleich Vergleich mobiler Prozessoren und der Prozessoren Benchmarkliste .
