Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max vs Motorola Edge 70 Fusion

Our Verdict: The Motorola Edge 70 Fusion is the newer of the two, a 2026 release against the Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max's 2021. The Edge 5G 70 Fusion leads on camera hardware with a 50MP main sensor to the iPhone 13 Pro Max's 12MP, plus a 32MP selfie camera against 12MP, and the Edge 5G 70 Fusion packs the bigger battery, 5200mAh against 4352mAh, though iOS and Android manage power differently, so more mAh doesn't always mean longer battery life. The iPhone 13 Pro Max offers up to 1TB of storage versus 256GB on the Edge 5G 70 Fusion, and the Edge 5G 70 Fusion uses an OLED panel, which gives it richer contrast than the iPhone 13 Pro Max's LCD. Get the Edge 5G 70 Fusion if those extras are worth it to you; otherwise the iPhone 13 Pro Max covers the basics for less.

Buying outright, the iPhone 13 Pro Max starts at £310 SIM-free.
