The iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 Pro Max will go on sale on November 13. However, on November 12, the first disassembly of the iPhone 12 Pro Max was posted online. Although it is not the chip level disassembly of the ifixit, nor even the shielding cover of the motherboard has been opened, a lot of information such as the motherboard configuration, battery capacity, camera size, and component layout of the iPhone 12 Pro Max can be confirmed.
The motherboard of the iPhone 12 Pro Max has also been moved to the other side like the iPhone 12/12 Pro, and has also become an L-shaped motherboard. Compared with the iPhone 11 Pro Max shown in the figure below, the motherboard area of the iPhone 12 Pro Max seems to be just half a dozen.
The battery capacity is confirmed to be 3687mAh, which is consistent with the information of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, 7.6% smaller than the iPhone 11 Pro Max with 3969mAh battery. Fortunately, the 5nm A14 has a good energy consumption ratio. The iPhone 12/12 Pro, with the same shrinking battery capacity, has no worse endurance performance. However, with 5G, the new iPhone will still have a weaker battery life than the Android flagship.

The main camera with the new CMOS (1.7 μ m unit pixel size) is slightly larger. However, because the disassembler did not open the double deck motherboard and shield of the iPhone 12 Pro Max, the specific information such as the flash memory model and memory model could not be seen.
