A friend of mine got one of the Pro Max iphones in orange. He's a Miami Dolphins fan, so he's happy Apple finally made an orange iPhone.

Optical zoom is a function of the lens and not the sensor let alone a software adjustment. Please don’t just parrot the nonsense of others, including Apple…

As a fan of the Anaheim Ducks and Miami Hurricanes I can relate to that very much.
