256 GB, Pacific Blue, 6.70", SIM + eSIM, 12 Mpx, 5G

Product details

The iPhone 12 Pro Max supports 5G for even faster mobile data transmission. The triple-camera system impresses with an ultra-wide sensor, 10x digital zoom, and many other features. It delivers stunningly sharp images at all times, even at night, thanks to the new LiDAR scanner that also enhances augmented reality. On the large Super Retina XDR OLED all-screen display, content such as photos, videos, and games looks fantastic and true to color. The new A14 Bionic chip is equipped with next-generation Neural Engine and utilizes 16 cores. You can confidently take the iPhone 12 Pro Max into the bathtub: its dust and water resistance has been significantly improved. It can withstand immersion for up to 30 minutes at a depth of 6 meters. In case of accidents, the Ceramic Shield protects the glass from breaking.
