iPhone 16 Pro Max DXOMARK

Apple’s latest creation – the iPhone 16 Pro Max device ranked fourth in the DXOMARK ranking. The new smartphone is full of advanced features and camera capabilities. Yet, it still cannot compete with the Huawei Pura 70 Ultra’s top-of-the-line camera.

DXOMARK reveals that the iPhone 16 Pro Max achieved the fourth spot in the camera ranking. The device sits below Pura 70 Ultra, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and Magic 6 Pro in this global listing. It has top scores in the preview and video recording categories.

iPhone 16 Pro Max has a triple-camera system including a 48MP main lens, a 48MP ultrawide-angle shooter, and a 12MP periscope sensor with 5x zoom capability. The rear optical framework supports dual-pixel PDAF and sensor-shift OIS functions.

The ranking shows that the iPhone 16 Pro Max camera scored 157 points in terms of overall performance. Scores regarding the photo quality, bokeh, and more are:

  • Photo: 157 points
  • Bokeh: 80 points
  • Preview: 93 points (Top Score)
  • Zoom: 142 points
  • Video: 159 points (Top Score)

Speaking of the first ranker, Pura 70 Ultra scored 163 points with the highest in Photo, Bokeh, and Zoom functionalities. The credit goes to the upgraded XD Motion Engine and XMAGE imaging system that raises the photography experience to the next level.

Pros and Cons

The iPhone 16 Pro Max has class-leading video quality with highly-detailed visuals and noise-free backgrounds even in dark environments. It offers outstanding color performance to images with an extensive range of bright and vivid hues.

While capturing individuals, the device customizes image colors to suit the person’s tastes and preferences. Users further get several image editing tools and an extremely accurate image preview to capture the perfect shot. The camera also provides zero shutter lag to click the decisive shots in almost every scenario.

Speaking of cons, Apple’s device didn’t perform well in tele-zooming and the image quality scenario. Some of the details were missing in the 2x to 5x shot range.

  • Inconsistencies when tele-zooming, with images losing some detail within the 2x to 5x range.
  • Narrow depth of field results in out-of-focus background subjects in group shots.
  • Unwanted artifacts, including flare, ghosting, ringing, and aliasing.
