A TechRadar reviewer tested the iPhone 18 Pro Max's variable aperture and compared it directly to the existing software-based portrait mode. The physical aperture system, particularly at f/1.48, produced noticeably superior depth-of-field effects compared to software processing, with visible bokeh even in bright daylight conditions.
“The iPhone 18 Pro Max main camera's new variable aperture is a huge deal and, in my limited experience, I can already see that it could transform iPhone photography.”
