iPhone 17 Pro Max VS OnePlus 13R

The iPhone 17 Pro Max comes out ahead overall, scoring 95 to the OnePlus 13R's 85. Priced at $1199 against $599, the choice between them is as much about budget as specs, and each phone leans toward a slightly different buyer.

For raw speed the iPhone 17 Pro Max takes the lead, with an AnTuTu score of 2,590,567 against 2,050,000, driven by its A19 Pro. Both feel quick in everyday use, but the gap shows up in demanding games and heavy multitasking where the faster chip pulls ahead.

The iPhone 17 Pro Max pairs a 48MP main camera with optical zoom and a 18MP front sensor. The OnePlus 13R answers with 50MP, zoom and a 16MP selfie camera.

Battery favours the OnePlus 13R, with a 6000mAh cell against 5088mAh. For refills the OnePlus 13R is quickest at 80W, spending less time tied to a charger.

Both use high refresh rate OLED screens. The iPhone 17 Pro Max measures 6.9" and peaks at 3000 nits, while the OnePlus 13R is 6.78" and reaches 4500 nits. Screen size and outright brightness are where they separate most.

Overall the OnePlus 13R is the one we would steer most buyers toward. One runs iOS and the other Android, so your existing apps, watch and ecosystem may matter more than the spec differences. Consider the iPhone 17 Pro Max instead if raw performance matters more to you.
