Pros and cons
Pros
- 6.9-inch display, up from 6.7-inch on the iPhone 15 Pro Max
- 48MP Ultra Wide camera; the 15 Pro Max has a 12MP one
- Up to 33 hours of video playback, 4 hours more than the iPhone 15 Pro Max
- Takes a nano-SIM as well as eSIM when bought outside the US; the iPhone 17 Pro Max sold in the UAE is eSIM only
- Titanium design, Camera Control and Apple Intelligence support
Cons
- 5x Telephoto at 12MP, where the iPhone 17 Pro Max has 8x optical-quality zoom at 48MP
- Up to 33 hours of video playback against 39 hours on the iPhone 17 Pro Max
- 12MP front camera; the 17 Pro Max has an 18MP Center Stage camera
- No charger in the box
Our verdict
The iPhone 16 Pro Max is still a top-tier phone: a 6.9-inch 120Hz display, the A18 Pro, 5x Telephoto, a titanium frame and up to 33 hours of video playback. Against the 15 Pro Max it adds a bigger screen, a 48MP Ultra Wide, Camera Control and four more hours of battery.
The iPhone 17 Pro Max goes further on zoom, battery and charging, but it is eSIM only in the UAE. If you want a titanium frame, or a UAE unit with a SIM tray, the 16 Pro Max is the one to get.

iPhone 16 Pro Max price guide
What the iPhone 16 Pro Max costs in the UAE
Across the 15 stores we track, the iPhone 16 Pro Max sells for between AED 2,889 and AED 6,929. That spread covers 3 storage options, sealed new and pre-owned stock and 4 colours, so the headline price is rarely the price of the exact model you want. The lowest price, AED 2,889, is for a 256GB Refurbished unit at Revibe.
New or pre-owned?
Sealed new starts at AED 3,900 at BSM PHONES for the 256GB. Pre-owned stock undercuts it by up to 30%: on the 512GB you would pay AED 3,120 instead of AED 4,450, a saving of AED 1,330. A gap that size is worth having if the condition and warranty suit you; check both before you compare prices.
Which storage is the best value?
At the lowest sealed new price for each size, the 256GB starts at AED 3,900. Going from 256GB to 512GB adds AED 550. Going from 512GB to 1TB adds AED 550. The smallest step up is to the 512GB, the easiest upgrade to justify if you need the space.
Pre-owned: which condition to buy
Pre-owned units are graded Original Parts, Refurbished or Condition Unclear, by what the store states. For the iPhone 16 Pro Max, Original Parts starts at AED 3,199 and Refurbished starts at AED 2,889. Each step up the scale costs more, as you would expect. Most of the difference between conditions is cosmetic and battery health; see what each condition allows on our conditions page.
