today it’s time to take apart the brand-new iphone 12 pro max apple’s latest and greatest most powerful iphone and likewise the largest iphone that’s ever been procreated with presumably a brand-new ruse inside that we’ve never seen before i kind of broke the last iphone i took apart so cross your fingers this one survives let’s get started[ Music][ Applause][ Music] so the iphone 12 pro max is basically only a larger version of the iphone 12 pro with apple liberating 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 big artillery and some slightly better cameras which is what we are after today if you recollect last go i was trying to remove the screen i inadvertently pried up underneath the glass instead of under the plastic frame and broke the display this time i’m making sure to lift the screen up high enough that i can get underneath the plastic part of the display with my crowbar tools since the screen is adjourned this is much harder than it searches the reason we want to check out the camera components inside of the macs is because apple has engineered a new figure of likenes stabilization that we’ve never seen inside of a smartphone before it’s called sensor displacement and can stabilize an likenes at over 5 000 times a second so if this is true it’s actually pretty 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 clamps hold to a metal sheet over the battery connector and screen ribbon once that’s off i can unplug the artillery like a little lego and then move to the second metal plate that coatings the other ribbon connector it also has four clamps once that’s removed i can unplug the remaining screen ribbon and detach the flaunt from the body not too shabby the cameras are all under this other metal layer but firstly let’s take out the artillery usually apple’s pull tabs are kind of fun but not so much better this time around all of the magical pull invoices keep on divulging[ Music] but with a dribble of isopropyl booze the stickiness underneath the artillery melts and i can lever the artillery out relatively easily the booze is non-conductive and vaporizes pretty quickly so it doesn’t hurt the electronics but still battery substitutions could be easier now we can see what the pull invoices are supposed to be doing if we could actually grip them as they elongate theoretically they lose their stickiness and really attract right out from underneath the artillery just not this time around now it’s time to check out apple’s recent innovation in mobile camera engineering i know we don’t always use apple and innovative in the same sentence but now 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 does 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 shifting we spoke earlier which is actually much better and much cool 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 width 12 pro has its main sensor at the top instead of the bottom the telephoto and prime sensor places are overruled between the two telephones but that’s not super important all of the cameras are very securely glued into a metal dwelling so they can work seamlessly with one another when the telephone swaps camera perspectives popping the camera module out from the housing is difficult but still possible recollect we’re still working with the normal iphone 12 pro at this station 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 procreated you queasy you probably wouldn’t be agreed like you are right now i can break open and peel apart the metal building surrounding 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 wiggling 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 meters a second which is impressive but not quite as impressive as what’s inside of the max taking a look at both camera buildings 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 sizing cameras like this gh5 sometimes have a type of stabilization that is called sensor shift it’s an internal stabilization approach 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 collect place the sensor this technology has only been found in dslrs until now apple says they’ve included this sensor switching 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 previously 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 operates apple says that instead of the normal 1000 readjustments per second that we experience with regular ois this new sensor shift method can stabilize up to 5000 eras per second which is a pretty big deal and mean we come quite a bit more accuracy the camera lens portion of the building has several sizable magnets and when i say large-scale i necessitate the dimensions of the an ant but still proportional to the camera it’s pretty big these magnets sit on top of minuscule curls that can ever so slightly switch its own position of that sensor the sensor displacements around inside of its house just like we realise on the professional camera and at 5000 durations a few seconds it happens quite 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 assimilate a tiny bit more light which is a good thing the pixel sizing themselves are also 0.3 micrometers big on the max than they are the regular i’ll give other reviewers be the reviewer of the actual camera image quality but if you crave the most wonderful of the subtle camera increases 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 installed 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 breaking two iphones in a row would have been kind of embarrassing with the cameras missing the camera app does still open up but just doesn’t find anything to show us kind of interesting if you think it’s fun to see the revelations of high-tech technology but likewise experience things like water resistance guaranties and your phone still operating you might like my teardown surface it’s an exact representation of what’s inside of your smartphone while keeping all the important bits handled i’ll have to update the sensor shift segment around the camera lens because it looks pretty cool but yeah i’ll place a link for the teardown skin down in the video description we’re enveloping more than 60 designs now this is why we probably have one for whatever phone you’re using if you’re curious about the large wireless charging ringlet 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 transformation engineering down in the comments and come hang out with me on instagram and chatter thanks done for watching i’ll see you around
