If we had to describe Apple's iPhone 12 Pro Max in one word,?????? ?????? it would be bigger. Not only is the 12 Pro Max's 6.7-inch display bigger than on any other iPhone ever, but nearly everything about this device trumps other iPhones in size.
We know that because iFixit has torn down the iPhone 12 Pro Max to little pieces — or, in this case, not so little pieces.
For example, the iPhone 12 Pro Max has a massive, L-shaped battery with a 14.13 Wh capacity, far bigger than the iPhone 12 Pro's 10.78 Wh battery. It also has a 47 percent larger main camera sensor than the iPhone 12 Pro, allowing it to capture more light. And if the camera bump on the iPhone 11 Pro Max was annoying, perhaps you should take a closer look at the 12 Pro Max before buying, as it has an even bigger camera bump.
The iPhone 12 Pro Max isn't terribly hard to repair, but if you get to this stage, you should probably call a professional.

Guess not everything about this phone is bigger, after all.

The display and the battery are fairly accessible for replacement, but the glass back means the entire case will have to be replaced if it breaks, which isn't ideal.
