How to enable ProRes video mode on iPhone

ProRes can be simply understood as a compression format, created to help compress video files without reducing the overall quality of the video.

Anyone who regularly edits videos with professional software like Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro or DaVinci Reslove should consider using ProRes. This feature helps to create high-quality videos but saves storage space. Besides, your computer will handle ProRes files better than other formats.

This article will show you how to activate ProRes on iPhone 13 Pro and Phone 13 Pro Max.

Which iPhone models support ProRes video recording?

As the most advanced iPhone models at the moment, iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max own a camera system that has been significantly upgraded in terms of hardware configuration to be able to support the new ProRes video mode. Through the system's built-in Camera app, you can record 4K video at 30fps on your iPhone 13 Pro (or Pro Max), but it will require at least 256GB of memory. The 128GB model can only record 1080p ProRes video at 60fps.

As such, at the moment, the ProRes video feature will only work on iPhone 13 Pro and Phone 13 Pro Max running iOS 15.1 or later.
