The iPhone 15 Pro Max is no longer the biggest and best iPhone you can buy, but even with the iPhone 16 Pro Max stealing the spotlight, it's still one of the best phones on the market. It's got the price to match its size and power too – so paying in monthly instalments will be a more suitable option for many than buying outright from retailers like Amazon and The Good Guys. Just be sure to pair it with our best SIM-only plans.

The biggest thing the iPhone 15 Pro Max has going for it is that you can make use of Apple Intelligence while snagging a giant display and premium power, without having to splurge on the iPhone 16 Pro Max, or opt for the more affordable iPhone 16 Plus.

Vodafone is the only major telco stocking the older generation all-powerful iPhone, but luckily for you, it's the best option right now thanks to its AU$10 monthly saving and doubled data. Read on below to see what the best iPhone 15 Pro Max plans are.

Looking for size from more than just your new iPhone 15 Pro Max? Then Vodafone has you covered. With doubled data on its medium plan, its usual 180GB of data will now be a giant 360GB over the entirety of your contract. You still get that AU$10p/m discount over the first 12 months and free Binge subscription to use all that tasty data on. That said, the same plan paired with the iPhone 16 Pro Max is only AU$2 more each month.

Total cost over 24 months is: AU$3,194.88

What are the key features for the iPhone 15 Pro Max?

We’ve had plenty of hands-on time with the iPhone 15 Pro Max over the past year, and while it wasn't a massive upgrade over the iPhone 14 Pro Max, it has some very noteworthy changes. First of all, it features a new 5x optical zoom for its telephoto lens – setting it apart from the iPhone 15 Pro's 3x optical zoom – which we were incredibly impressed by in our iPhone 15 Pro Max review.

That's far from the best optical zoom on the market, as the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra offers 10x, but even still it's a very welcome addition for Apple loyalists, and it helps you take some incredible snaps. As well as its 12MP telephoto lens that boasts that improved optical zoom, the iPhone 15 Pro Max's camera array also possesses a 48MP main camera, a 12MP ultra-wide and a 12MP telephoto with the improved optical zoom.

The 15 Pro Max is also now equipped with Apple’s own A17 Pro chip, which is plenty powerful for even the most serious of gamers. More importantly, while the all-new AI features of Apple Intelligence are coming to the iPhone 16, the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max are also strong enough to handle it. Aside from the speed it offers, the A17 Pro has formidable graphics capabilities with Apple showing off console-level gaming at its showing.
