Sorry to be a party pooper but I definitely wasn't underwhelmed by the 13 Pro Max!
I do a lot of camera and video work so the new upgrades will be important to me.
Highlights for me include:
- ProMotion 120hz adaptive refresh is utterly superb on iPad Pro and expect the same on iPhone Pro. Do not underestimate how good this feature is!!
- Cinematic Mode (and then some!)
- ProRes Video Recording
- Night Mode
- Macro Mode - stills and video is awesome!
- Photographic Styles
- Bigger Battery - expecting significant gains in battery times
- A15 Bionic
- £50 cheaper than 12 Pro Max (very non-Apple!)
- New Sierra Blue colour looks great
- Smaller notch
Here are the full camera specs:
Telephoto
- 77mm focal length
- 3x optical zoom
- ƒ/2.8 aperture
- Focus Pixels
- 6-element lens
- OIS
Ultra Wide
- 13mm focal length
- ƒ/1.8 aperture

- 6-element lens
Wide
- 26mm focal length
- 1.9 μm pixels

Personally I'm not fussed about the weight gain.
Just in case anyone was wondering, your god damn right I am pre-ordering Friday! 🤣
Currently have a Gen 5 watch, not sure if I'll upgrade to the Gen 7 right now as I did expect a full redesign.
Instead I ordered an iPad Mini in my excitement, maybe for me or for my missus - lets see!
What made me laugh is the fact the zillions of iPhone 13 leakers who got it very wrong this year, my pre-keynote Matte Black choice can wait another year for the 14 now!
