Apple iPhone 18 Pro Max 256GB Physical SIM + eSIM

The Apple iPhone 18 Pro Max 256GB is the most powerful and advanced iPhone Apple has released for 2026, and Al Bab Al Aaly delivers it brand new and original in the physical SIM version (nano-SIM + eSIM) with a full 1-year warranty. If you are looking for the iPhone 18 Pro Max price in Iraq with a genuine warranty and cash on delivery, this page explains every feature in detail: the display, the A20 Pro chip, the Pro Fusion camera system with Apple's first variable-aperture main camera, pro video, battery and charging, connectivity, durability, and iOS 27 with Apple Intelligence.

Design and colours

iPhone 18 Pro Max is built on an aluminium unibody that combines strength with a balanced feel, with a Ceramic Shield 2 front and a Ceramic Shield back. It measures 163.4 x 78.0 x 8.75 mm and weighs 249 g, and the rear camera lenses are protected by a sapphire crystal lens cover.

It comes in four official colours, and you choose the colour you want when you order:

• Black: a classic, understated finish for a professional look.
• Silver: bright and premium, highlighting the design details.
• Glacier: a calm, light icy blue with a modern touch.
• Burgundy: a bold, rich colour for those who want to stand out.

Display: 6.9-inch Super Retina XDR

The phone features a 6.9-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display with a 2868 x 1320 resolution at 460 ppi. ProMotion adapts the refresh rate up to 120Hz for ultra-smooth scrolling and gaming and drops it when idle to save power, enabling the Always-On display for the time and notifications at a glance. Dynamic Island shows alerts and Live Activities interactively at the top of the screen.

• 1000 nits typical brightness and up to 1600 nits peak HDR brightness.
• Up to 3000 nits outdoors for a clear view even in strong sunlight.
• Down to 1 nit for comfortable reading in the dark.
• 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio for deep blacks and vivid images.

Performance: A20 Pro chip

At its heart is the A20 Pro chip built on a 2nm process, with a 6-core CPU (2 performance and 4 efficiency cores), a 7-core GPU with Neural Accelerators for faster AI tasks, a dual 16-core Neural Engine, and hardware-accelerated ray tracing for realistic lighting and shadows in games. With 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, it handles demanding games, 4K video editing, heavy multitasking and on-device AI with ease.

48MP Pro Fusion camera system

The biggest upgrade on iPhone 18 Pro Max is the variable-aperture main camera, part of a triple 48MP system:

• 48MP Fusion Main camera (24 mm): variable aperture from ƒ/1.48 to ƒ/4.0 (four stops: ƒ/1.48, ƒ/1.8, ƒ/2.8 and ƒ/4.0). Open wide at ƒ/1.48 for more light at night, or close to ƒ/4.0 for greater depth of field in group shots and landscapes. It uses second-generation sensor-shift optical image stabilisation.
• 12MP 2x (48 mm): optical-quality framing that is ideal for portraits.
• 48MP Fusion Ultra Wide (13 mm): ƒ/2.2 with a 120-degree field of view, plus 48MP macro photography for tiny details.
• 48MP Fusion Telephoto (100 mm): 4x optical zoom at ƒ/2.8 with a tetraprism design and 3D sensor-shift stabilisation.
• 12MP 8x (200 mm): optical-quality zoom for distant subjects.

Together they give you up to 16x optical-quality zoom range and up to 40x digital zoom. The cameras support ProRAW, Smart HDR 5, the Photonic Engine, Night mode and Spatial photos.

Pro video recording

• 4K Dolby Vision video up to 120 fps.
• Cinematic mode in 4K at 60 fps.
• Action mode at 2.8K 60 fps for steady footage on the move.
• ProRes, ProRes RAW and Apple Log 2 recording for creators and professionals, plus Genlock support for multi-camera sync.
• Dual Capture to record with the front and rear cameras at the same time.
• Four studio-quality microphones with Audio Mix to adjust the sound after recording.

Front camera and Face ID

The 18MP Center Stage front camera with ƒ/1.9 records 4K 60 fps Dolby Vision video, so selfies and video calls look sharper than ever. Face ID unlocks the phone, authorises payments and verifies your identity securely and quickly.

Battery and charging

The 5391 mAh battery delivers up to 30 hours of typical use, up to 45 hours of video playback and up to 40 hours of streamed video. Fast charging reaches 50% in around 15 minutes with a 60W or higher adapter, and the phone also supports MagSafe and Qi2 wireless charging up to 25W. The USB-C port supports USB 3 at 10Gb/s and DisplayPort output for fast file transfers and external displays.

Connectivity and the physical SIM version

The unit we sell is the physical SIM version (nano-SIM + eSIM): it has a standard nano-SIM tray for any Iraqi carrier SIM card, plus eSIM support, so you can easily run two numbers. It supports 5G through the Apple C2 modem, and the Apple N1 wireless chip brings Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6 and Thread, alongside second-generation Ultra Wideband, NFC for contactless payments and Emergency SOS via satellite (where available).

Durability and water resistance

With an IP68 rating for water resistance up to 6 metres for 30 minutes and dust resistance, plus a Ceramic Shield 2 front and Ceramic Shield back, iPhone 18 Pro Max is built to handle scratches, drops and everyday life.

Action button and Camera Control

The customisable Action button launches the camera, flashlight, silent mode or any shortcut you like with a single press. Camera Control is a dedicated camera button that lets you open the camera, take a shot and adjust zoom and settings with a simple finger slide.

iOS 27 and Apple Intelligence

The phone runs iOS 27 with Apple Intelligence, Apple's suite of AI tools for writing, summarising text, editing photos and more. The new AI-powered Siri is available as a beta in English first, with other languages to follow from Apple later.

What's in the box

• iPhone 18 Pro Max.
