In the old days, before COVID, I didn't just review big phones — I used them almost exclusively. They're especially helpful here in New York, where you never knew when a train will get held up.

The improved camera hardware Apple introduced with iPhone Series 12 turned out to be exclusive to the iPhone 12 Pro Max. We've talked about that through our iPhone 12 reviews ... some of its rivals.

If you were expecting the next iPhone update to be iOS 26.1, you weren’t alone. But no, it looks like Apple has other plans.
