Common iPhone 16 Pro Max issues we check at inspection
- Screen burn-in on ProMotion OLED display. Ghost images from status bar, navigation gestures, or keyboard visible on the high-refresh-rate OLED panels after extended use, especially with static elements.
- Battery degradation below 80% health. Original battery showing <80% maximum capacity after 2+ years of use, leading to significantly reduced daily usage time.
- Scratches or micro-abrasions on Titanium frame. The brushed titanium finish, while durable, can show fine scratches and scuffs from everyday pocket carry or minor drops.
- Weakened MagSafe magnet connection. Over time, the magnets in the MagSafe charging coil or accessory attachment point can lose some strength, leading to less secure connections.
- Camera lens micro-scratches. The individual camera lenses, while protected by glass, can accumulate small scratches from contact with keys or rough surfaces, potentially affecting image quality.
- Face ID sensor malfunction. The TrueDepth camera system responsible for Face ID can become faulty due to drops or internal component failure, rendering the primary unlocking method unusable.
