today it’s time to take apart the new iphone 12 pro max apple’s recent and greatest most powerful iphone and also the largest iphone that’s ever been met with supposedly a new quirk inside that we’ve never seen before i kind of broke the last iphone i took apart so cross your digits this one survives let’s get started[ Music][ Applause][ Music] so the iphone 12 pro max is basically really a larger version of the iphone 12 pro with apple secreting four new iphones this year it does get a little confusing all you really need to know though is that the pro max has a larger screen bigger battery and some slightly better cameras which is what we are after today if you recollect last-place hour i was trying to remove the screen i inadvertently levered up underneath the glass instead of under the plastic enclose and broke the display this time i’m making sure to lift the screen up high enough that i can get underneath the plastic one of the purposes of the display with my pry tools since the screen is recessed this is much harder than it looks the reason we want to check out the camera components inside of the macs is because apple has engineered a new shape of idol stabilization that we’ve never seen inside of a smartphone before it’s called sensor change and can stabilize an persona at over 5 000 times a second so if this is true it’s actually moderately huge and a pretty big step forward in the mobile camera game as we can see my screen is still working so far thumbs up for that we’re off to a good start there are four screws hold to a metal layer over the artillery connector and screen ribbon formerly that’s off i can unplug the battery like a little lego and then move to the second metal plate that handles the other ribbon connector it also has four nails formerly that’s removed i can unplug the remaining screen ribbon and detach the display from the body not too shabby the cameras are all under this other metal sheet but first let’s take out the battery frequently apple’s pull invoices are kind of fun but not so much better this time around all of the magical pluck tabs keep on break-dance[ Music] but with a fleck of isopropyl alcohol the stickiness underneath the artillery dissolves and i can lever the battery out relatively easily the booze is non-conductive and melts pretty quickly so it doesn’t hurt the electronics but still battery replacements could be easier now we can see what the attract tabs are supposed to be doing if we could actually grip them as they unfold theoretically they lose their stickiness and just pull right out from underneath the battery precisely not this time around now it’s time to check out apple’s recent innovation in mobile camera engineering i know we don’t ever use apple and innovative in the same sentence but here we are and it’s actually pretty impressive so inside the 12 pro max the top camera is the telephoto which does have optical persona stabilization where the lens does the moving the wide angle is off the side with no ois and the prime sensor is at the bottom and it looks like it should not have ois since the exterior lens is not moving but that’s actually absolutely no truth to the rumors the main camera has that sensor alter we talked about earlier which is actually much better and much cooler than regular ois but first let’s grab the main camera lens out of the regular iphone 12 pro so we can compare them the regular size 12 pro has its prime sensor at the top instead of the bottom the telephoto and central sensor orientations are overruled between the two phones but that’s not super important all of the cameras are very securely glued into a metal casing so they can work seamlessly with each other when the telephone swaps camera positions popping the camera module out from the dwelling is difficult but still possible retain we’re still working with the normal iphone 12 pro at this stage not the max just yet once the main camera is out i can start opening up the camera module this kills the module but if phone carnage saw you queasy you probably wouldn’t be agreed like you are right now i can break open and rind away the metal residence bordering the camera lens and the camera sensor you can see that the camera lens hovers over the top of the sensor like a hoverboard from back to the future the top lens is jiggling to compensate for and stabilize the shakes that happen to the phone while you’re taking a picture or video such types of ois can stabilize at about 1 000 periods a second which is impressive but not quite as impressive as what’s inside of the max taking a look at both camera residences we can see that the iphone 12 pro max is indeed quite a bit larger than the iphone 12 pro visual portrait stabilization has been a big deal for flagship smartphones for the past few years however professional real size cameras like this gh5 sometimes have a type of stabilization that is called sensor shift it’s an internal stabilization procedure that moves the sensor itself to stabilize the image instead of moving the exterior lens it’s much faster because it happens right at the pitcher collecting point the sensor this technology has only been is located within dslrs until now apple says they’ve included this sensor shift engineering on the iphone 12 pro max it’s on the largest sensor of the grouping and is just as difficult to get inside of as the regular iphone 12 pro but pretty much anything is possible with the razer blade i’m actually pretty excited to get inside of this one seeing brand new technology from the inside is why we’re here formerly the back metal is off we get our first look at the bottom side of the camera sensor and it is indeed shifting moving around inside of the home while the exterior lens stays in the same spot it looks like apple has indeed done it they’ve done something new i’ll papa the camera lens off so we can see how it drives apple says that instead of the normal 1000 revisions per second that we realise with regular ois this new sensor shift method can stabilize up to 5000 epoches per second which is a pretty big deal and mean we do quite a bit more accuracy the camera lens fraction of the accommodate has several big magnets and when i say large-scale i symbolize the size of an ant but still proportional to the camera it’s pretty big these magnets sit on top of insignificant ringlets that can ever so somewhat alteration the position of that sensor the sensor shifts around inside of its residence just like we witnessed on the professional camera and at 5000 days two seconds it happens moderately fast of course the sensor of the max is a tiny bit larger than the iphone 12 pro which we can see now that they are side by side this means that the larger sensor on the max can absorb a tiny bit more light which is a good thing the pixel size themselves are too 0.3 micrometers bigger on the max than they are the regular i’ll give other reviewers be the adjudicate of the actual camera image quality but if you crave the best of the subtle camera betterments the iphone 12 pro max is where apple has put everything they’ve got i’ll get the phone reassembled to make sure i don’t break it this time around well break the important parts you know what i mean the phone should still work without the rear camera modules set formerly the artillery is plugged in and the metal plates are back in place the phone does indeed turn back on which is a good thing ruin two iphones in a row would have been kind of embarrassing with the cameras missing the camera app does still open up but exactly doesn’t find anything to show us kind of interesting if you think it’s fun to see the insights of high-tech technology but too enjoy things like water resistance guaranties and your phone still running you are able to like my teardown scalp it’s an exact representation of what’s inside of your smartphone while keeping all the important bits covered i’ll have to update the sensor shifting section around the camera lens because it looks pretty cool but yeah i’ll set a attach for the teardown bark down in the video description we’re including more than 60 inventions now this is why we probably have one for whatever phone you’re using if you’re curious about the large wireless bill scroll or the ring of magnets you can check out my full iphone 12 pro tear down video where i explain all of that i’ll leave a link for that in the description as well i think apple’s done a good job this year let me know what you think of the sensor change engineering down in the comments and come hang out with me on instagram and flutter thanks done for watching i’ll see you around
