Starting off the year, theOnePlus 13is proving to be a much more improved Android phone.
That’s why a OnePlus 13 vs. iPhone 16 Pro Max photo shootout is necessary.

All of this proves to me why its a contender.
Heres what I found.
In contrast, the OnePlus 13 overexposes the sign resulting in the colors appearing more blown out.

Now, the difference between the two shots above is found when I zoom into each photo.
The iPhone 16 Pro Maxs richer color tones make it stand out more side-by-side.
Thats because the iPhone 16 Pro Maxs 12MP TrueDepth selfie cam takes the better looking images.

In contrast, the iPhone 16 Pro Max captures a more accurate looking portrait shot.
Aside from that, I think that both phones do an excellent job of isolating myself from the background.
Overall, both captures look stunning with the amount of detail in them.

Theyre minor details, but enough to make me choose a winner.
And finally, the iPhone also has just a smidge more definition with the wooden rails.
As usual, my go-to for this testing is in my backyard where its nearly pitch black.
