Two Capacities, One Core Experience

The iPhone 17 Pro Max is available in 512GB and 1TB configurations. Both share the same A19 Pro chip, 12GB of RAM, 6.9-inch Super Retina XDR ProMotion display, and triple 48MP camera system. The main difference is how much content you can store locally.

  • 1TB: Best for heavy users: 8K ProRes RAW video, large music libraries, or offline storage for travel. The Grade A+ Pristine condition reflects minimal cosmetic wear.

Condition Grade Difference

Which One Should You Pick?

If you frequently shoot 4K or ProRes video, download large games, or keep extensive media libraries offline, the 1TB model is worth the extra USD 119.
