Just a few days ago, we shared a fair comparison between the upcoming Tesla Phone Pi and Apple’s iPhone 14 Pro Max that came out last month. Now it’s time to compare Tesla’s future phone with the older sibling of the iPhone 14 Pro Max, meaning the iPhone 13 Pro Max model that came out last year.
Tesla, the famous company of Elon Musk that’s usually known for electric cars, will release its upcoming smartphone in April 2023. However, there’s a chance that we might see it released this year in December. Only time will tell for sure. While there’s not much info available on the web regarding the specs of the future phone, we can already make assumptions, speculations, and comparisons based on the rumors. That’s also what the guys from the ‘Spec World’ YouTube channel did when they made the new Tesla Phone Pi vs. iPhone 13 Pro Max comparison.
Result (based on 32 factors): Tesla wins!
In a nutshell, the comparison from Spec World reveals, based on 32 factors, that Tesla’s upcoming Phone Pi gadget is better than the iPhone 13 Pro Max.
The Tesla Phone Pi is expected to be about $400 more expensive than the iPhone 13 Pro Max, and there we already have a plus for Apple’s gadget. Tesla will likely charge $1499 for its upcoming phone. Now let’s dive into more details about the comparison:
A better display for Tesla Phone Pi
Tesla Phone Pi will likely have a better display in pretty much all areas compared to its competitor iPhone 13 Pro Max: higher refresh rate, higher size, resolution, and aspect ratio, as well as more pixel density. As for the display type, we can consider that they’re of the same quality – Super AMOLED for Tesla’s phone and XDR Retina OLED for the iPhone.
A better GPU for iPhone 13 Pro Max
If you want a better deal for gaming, you should definitely choose to buy the iPhone 13 Pro Max for its Apple GPU. That’s a superior GPU compared to the Adreno 660 that’s expected to be mounted on the Tesla Pi Phone. Mobile gaming has become increasingly predominant in recent years, and it’s understandable. The quality of the mobile games increased a lot, and you can even use a powerful phone for gaming to project your favorite virtual worlds to a monitor. You can also simply attach a controller, and you get yourself a powerful console!
Tesla Phone Pi has a better selfie camera
While it’s a bit difficult to say which one of the main camera setups mounted on the two smartphones is better, the prize for the front camera clearly goes to the Tesla Phone Pi! The upcoming phone from Tesla will likely be able to capture photos in 48MP with its front camera, while the iPhone 13 Pro Max can only snap pictures in 12MP. However, both gadgets are great when it comes to vlogging, as their front cameras are able to record video in 4K at 60FPS.
As for the main camera setups, the one that the iPhone 13 Pro Max comes equipped with is sporting the Main Wide, a Telephoto, and an Ultra Wide snapper, each of them having 12MP. On the other side, Tesla Phone Pi is expected to be featuring a 108MP Main Wide snapper and a Periscope, Ultra Wide, and Macro sensors with 50MP each.
Both smartphones come equipped with 5G, powerful processors (Snapdragon 898 5G for Tesla’s phone and A15 Bionic for the iPhone), IP68 water resistance, and more. Surely choosing any of the two gadgets will be a good deal, but the price difference in favor of the iPhone 13 Pro Max might be one of the main arguments why you should still choose Apple’s device.
