  This is the iPhone 12 Pro Max. It is one of four iPhone 12 models this year, and it is the biggest iPhone ever made. And it comes with big ambitions. It has the largest screen ever on an iPhone, it has the biggest camera sensor of any iPhone, including the other iPhone 12s. Has a 5G radio, it's got a bigger battery.

If you need a new phone and you like the way that Samsung does things you...
