iPhone 12 Pro Max features a Ceramic Shield glass cover on top which is one of the toughest glasses present on any smartphone ever. This glass makes it 4x more drop resistance than previous glass. Apple ProRAW will provide users with a professional post-photography experience in the photo app.

Price

ASUS ROG Phone 5 Ultimate Edition has a RAM of 18GB and internal storage of 512GB. This gaming smartphone is priced at Rs 79,999. iPhone 12 Pro Max’s three variant comes for $1099 or Rs. 124,278 (6GB + 128GB), $1199 or Rs. 134,088 (6GB + 256GB) and $1399 or Rs. 158,900 (6GB + 512GB).

Our Thoughts

Apart from the processor’s domain, we can’t see iPhone 12 Pro Max beating ASUS ROG Phone 5 Ultimate edition. The display size is almost the same but the refresh rate of Apple’s device is not even half of what ASUS’s smartphone is offering. Similar is the case when we compared their battery specifications.

Even after this, iPhone 12 Pro Max is way too expensive compared to the ROG Phone 5 smartphone. It is just because of the brand value which Apple holds. But our preference will be the ASUS device. What will be your choice? Will you choose ROG Phone 5 Ultimate or Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max?
