I would be telling you in detail everything that makes iPhone 12 Pro Max's camera the best in the market right now. If you want to make the best of your iPhone 12 Pro Max cameras, then stick with me to the end of this book.
Using the iPhone 12 Pro Max to take pictures is as easy as it's always been in previous versions of the iPhones only that now you can make it do more than those versions if you only knew how to find your way around the interface. Compared to what you may be used to in earlier versions of the iPhone, some controls and settings in the iPhone 12 Pro Max no longer exist while many others have been moved to new locations, including some changes in the layout of the phone’s camera app. The camera app on the iPhone 12 Pro Max is at first glance similar to the old iPhone Camera app only that the new app has a great deal of depth, which makes it able to take crisp photos with minimal effort even when the lighting is limited.
Software and interface changes are not the only things that differentiate the iPhone 12 Pro Max from other iPhone versions. The cameras on the iPhone were already very good at taking great daytime pictures, but the new iPhone 12 Pro Max takes their photography to a whole new level. This is mostly because of the triple-lens setup at the back of the iPhone 12 Pro Max and the supersonic A14 Bionic that enables the phone to expand its capabilities.
To take advantage of these hardware features is an expanded new iOS 14 operating system that enables it to produce crystal clear pictures, among other new functions like the Night mode on all lenses and the Quick Take video. There is also a unique feature that allows users to zoom out on an image even though you had previously captured it with some parts that seem to be missing.
These hardware and software make the iPhone 12 Pro Max to be touted to be one of the best iPhones ever to be produced by Apple when you consider the ingenuity in combining technology with the phone’s high-level photography. The majority of the iPhone’s 12 Pro functions involve knowing what and how to tap, which is what helps to ensure that the photos shot with the iPhone 12 Pro Max even if taken by a novice come out crisp, amazing and sharp. This phone runs on iOS 14 with a high-level dual-sensor for the rear cameras and is also powered by Apple’s new A14 Bionic chip.
The four available colors for the iPhone 12 Pro Max for buyers to choose from include pacific blue, gold, graphite, and silver.

According to Apple, the iPhone 12 Pro Max is made from the toughest glass ever to grace the glass body of a smartphone and offers an amazing resistance to dust and water with its IP rating of IP68, which helps to improve its reliability and durability.
It's rated to be able to stay up to a depth of water of up to 2M or 6.5 feet for a period of up to 30 minutes. Although an IP68 rating can withstand immersion in water, it is advisable to limit the phone’s exposure to water to just splashes, accidental exposure to liquid, and maybe rain.
For sounds, it equally supports Dolby Atmos and Spatial audio, which enables it to offer a truly impressive sound experience.
Design of the iPhone 12 Pro Max Camera
The iPhone 12 series is totally for photos and videos. The sharp design of the device and those three camera lenses along with the LIDAR sensor will surely win your heart. The camera lenses are installed on the top-left corner of the rear side as they were in iPhone 11 pro max.
