| Boilerpipe Text | Apple's iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max make up the more expensive half of the 2021 iPhone lineup.
The iPhone 13 Pro starts at $999, while the iPhone 13 Pro Max starts at $1,099

. The rest of the 2021 iPhone offering includes the $799 iPhone 13 and $699 iPhone 13 Mini.
I've been primarily using the iPhone 13 Pro Max for the past week, with occasional testing of the smaller iPhone 13 Pro. This year, other than display size and battery life, there aren't any meaningful differences between the two. They offer an identical experience.
The iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max are two of the best iPhones I've ever used, thanks to an upgraded camera system, improved battery life and a display that's easy on the eyes. But there's more to them than that. Let's dive in, shall we?

What's in a name, anyway?
Even though Apple skipped using its familiar "S" naming convention for the 2021 iPhone lineup, the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max are very much an "S" upgrade as far as design is concerned. Including new colors, there are three noticeable tweaks to the exterior of the iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max. The biggest change is the size of the camera array on the back of the phone. The camera lenses are more spread out and much larger than the iPhone 12 Pro.
It's important to note that due to the size of the camera array and the side buttons being shifted down ever-so-slightly, you'll very likely need to get a new case if you're upgrading from an iPhone 12 Pro.
