Phone 13 Pro Max. The biggest Pro camera system upgrade ever. Super Retina XDR display with ProMotion for a faster, more responsive feel. Lightning-fast A15 Bionic chip. Superfast 5G.1 Durable design and the best battery life ever in an iPhone
A design as jaw-dropping as it is durable, with surgical-grade stainless steel, Ceramic Shield, and industry-leading IP68 water resistance.
Honestly, every iPhone made in the last few years will have no trouble running even the most demanding mobile games. But if you’re serious enough about phone gaming to make it a priority in your buying decision, you don’t want “good enough,” you want the best.
Any iPhone will play casual games well. If you want to play high-end premium games with more advanced 3D graphics and sound, performance matters. All iPhone 13s have the super-fast A15 chip, but the Pro and Pro Max have a version of the chip with a fifth GPU core, instead of 4 in the regular iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini. And if you’re into gaming, you want the larger “Max” variant.
Why? First, there’s the issue of battery life. High-end gaming is a big drain on your phone’s battery, and the iPhone 13 Pro Max has the longest battery life of any iPhone we’ve ever tested. If you play location-based games (like Pokemon Go), you want to play without having to carry around a battery pack.
Second, screen size matters. Games with on-screen virtual sticks and buttons are easier to control when the screen is bigger. Small text in RPGs and the like is easier to read. Streaming games from your Xbox or Playstation? You’re definitely going to want a bigger display.
Finally, let’s not forget about 5G. Playing internet-connected games on the go, away from Wi-Fi, can be tenuous on 4G connections, but at least a little better on 5G. And of course, 5G drains your battery more quickly, so yet another reason to go with the big phone.
If you just can’t stand really really big phones, or if gaming is a secondary concern, there’s nothing wrong with the iPhone 13 Pro or even the regular iPhone 13. But serious gaming enthusiasts will probably be the happiest spending the extra money for the big Max variant.
Pros: Top performance, huge display, longest battery life ever
Cons: Really big, really expensive

I have written professionally about technology for my entire adult professional life - over 20 years. I like to figure out how complicated technology works and explain it in a way anyone can understand.
1. 5G Ultra Wideband available only in parts of select cities. 5G Nationwide available in 2700+ cities.
2. All battery claims depend on network configuration and many other factors; actual results will vary. Battery has limited recharge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced by Apple service provider. Battery life and charge cycles vary by use and settings. See apple.com/batteries and apple.com/iphone/battery.html for more information.
3. iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 13 Pro Max, iPhone 13, and iPhone 13 mini are splash, water, and dust resistant and were tested under controlled laboratory conditions with a rating of IP68 under IEC standard 60529 (maximum depth of 6 meters up to 30 minutes). Splash, water, and dust resistance are not permanent conditions and resistance might decrease as a result of normal wear. Do not attempt to charge a wet iPhone; refer to the user guide for cleaning and drying instructions. Liquid damage not covered under warranty.
