EDITORIAL: (this is a pre-test listing based on reasonable expectation of charging, screen and imaging performance) Following last year's Xiaomi lead, Honor jumped on the iPhone-copy-naming-trend and made 9 Pro Max. It is 2mm wider then previous top model and packs upgrades: chip, 1700mAh bigger battery(!), brighter screen, new 200MP main and 55MP selfie cameras - all for less then $1000.
PROs
unique camera island design with optional external 200mm zoom lens, top SD 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 (2nm) with UFS 4.1 performance, 48hr endurance from a huge 8800mAh Si-C battery with sub-90min 100W (80W wireless) charging, >1800nits bright 460ppi 120Hz LTPO OLED screen with Dolby Vision, IP69 protection, excellent 200MP 23mm OIS main + 200MP 80mm OIS periscope telephoto + 50MP 12mm ultrawide (all with PDAF) setup, very good new 55MP selfie, very good video recording, AI and other features loaded MagicOS with 7 years of OS updates iOS integration, mature desktop replacement feature, fast USB-C 3.2 port with OTG and Display Port 1.2 tech
CONs
big and 230g heavy, at 8800mAh - battery size could be an overkill, no AF on selfie for the second year, no expandable memory slot, lacks Apple's and Samsung's global distribution

EDITORIAL: Following Xiaomi's 2025 move, both Vivo and Oppo released "Pro" and "Pro Max" phones in September 2026. Oppo's Find X10 Pro Max lands somewhere between last year's Pro and Ultra, not really matching either. It beats Pro's battery size and camera setup while the screen is a real downgrade when compared to X9 Ultra's QHD screen. Most importantly: this is the 1st phone with a triple 200MP camera setup on the back and given Oppo's improved imaging performance, it is the "best photo phone" title contender.
PROs
flagship build, fast Dimensity 9600 Pro (2nm) with UFS 4.1 performance, >42hr endurance from a massive 8000mAh (7150mAh in EU) Si-C battery with sub-90min 80W (50W wireless) charging, ~2300nits 450ppi 144Hz LTPO AMOLED screen with Dolby Vision, IP69 protection, industry-first triple 200MP lenses with PDAF: 24mm OIS main + 70mm OIS periscope telephoto + 13mm ultrawide, excellent 50MP 18mm PDAF selfie, very good video recording, up to 5 years of OS updates, Snap button for fast access to a feature of choice, aggressive pricing
CONs
big and 233g heavy, no memory expansion, no desktop replacement functionality despite Android 17 native support, limited market availability
