The iPhone 12 Pro Max is an older and way heavier device than the Apple iPhone 13, but Apple was able to build it a little bit thinner anyway. Both phones we are comparing include the same iOS 15.x OS (operating system), so you shouldn't perceive any difference regarding operating system features.
The Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max's processor is just as good as Apple iPhone 13's processing unit, and although the Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max has a larger amount of RAM, they both have a 64 bits processing unit and a Hexa-Core processing unit. IPhone 12 Pro Max features a display that's just as good as the display in iPhone 13, and although the iPhone 12 Pro Max has a little bit larger display and a slightly better 1284 x 2778px resolution, they both have a greater pixel amount per inch in the screen and the same screen brightness.

IPhone 12 Pro Max and iPhone 13 both have very similar memory capacity to store more games and applications, they have equal internal memory.
The Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max features a bit longer battery performance than iPhone 13, because it has a 3687mAh battery capacity.
Although iPhone 12 Pro Max is a better device, it costs more money than iPhone 13, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as iPhone 13. So if you want that extra features and specs, you can buy the iPhone 12 Pro Max, else you can save a couple dollars and buy the iPhone 13, giving up some specs and features.
