The iPhone XS Max was Apple's first Max-sized iPhone, featuring a large 6.5-inch Super Retina OLED display, the A12 Bionic chip, and a dual-camera system that still delivers good image quality today. However, it no longer supports the latest iOS 27, which means it misses out on new features, long-term software support, and future app compatibility. We no longer recommend the iPhone XS Max in 2026. Instead, we recommend the iPhone 11 Pro Max, which is the most affordable Pro Max model that supports iOS 27 and offers better long-term value, performance, and software support.
