I strongly believe the iPhone will cap off at 1TB. I can not see Apple going for 2TB on the iPhone. The storages we have now, will be it for a LONG time.
This post is going to age so poorly:) Seeing how Apple seems to be positioning the iPhone Pro's for amateur cinematography, I am sure a 2TB version will come out within the next 2-3 years.
 
If you are getting 1TB storage then obviously you will have no worries about storage, hence you can max out the camera and video settings in camera.

You can also add more MP3 songs and download files to store in your phone.

Obviously the biggest advantage is with photo and video taking. You will no long have to worry if your storage will be enough for 4K ProRes videos.
 
Is it worth spending more for the 1TB model?

How many of you guys are planning to get one?
The price jump here in Spain from 256 to 512 is 230€ and from 512 to 1TB is 230€ as well. If one is to get 512 in any event then paying 230€ more to get it "maxed out" would be a nobrainer. The question is about 230€ only and in the US probably even less. What would one do with two hundred? Save the world? Feel better for "saving" a bit of money but having the second best iPhone? Obviously no. Just get the 1TB version, you won't notice the "missing" two hundred in your wallet but you will notice the best iPhone ever made in your pocket. 👊👍✌️
 
I think it’s worth it. I ordered the 13 pro max 1TB Sierra blue with AT&T. They are giving me $1000 for my 12 Pro as a trade-in so the monthly payment aren’t much. Not sure though if it’s going to be difficult to sell later down the road or not, depends on if you trade it in on another phone next year or in two years.
 
Well I got the IPhone 13 Pro Max 1TB Graphite and I am sure I will be happy with my storage because I will make full use of the Cinematic Mode and ProRes.

I bought the Dark Cherry case today. I was so confused at the Apple Store because Graphite color looks great with many cases.

Soon after a month, once the new phone excitement wears down, will start to use many skin options.
 
I tested some 4K videos at the Apple Store.

Without ProRes already it will take up a lot of storage. 512gb is the min you should have to enjoy ProRes.

1Gb if you wish to enjoy taking 4K videos without worrying about storage.
