Apple unveiled the iPhone 17 Pro Max today in Cupertino, where the aluminum frame hides a vapor chamber for cooling that would be the envy of supercomputers. With a 6.9-inch display that shines like the midnight sun (up to 3,000 nits) and a camera that captures 8x zoom like it's child's play, this is a device for those who want it all - and pay for it. The irony? Your old iPhone will now look like an ancient artifact, while the new one promises a future where AI is your best friend. But for 1,199 euros ($1,310), we ask: is this an upgrade or just another layer of aluminum around the same apple?
