2019 – 2020
During the development, this was the service’s official logo. It shows the big word ‘MAX’, written in round, lowercase letters with a blue-to-red gradient. Above its left side, there was a small HBO logo, placed inside a thin blue frame, which created something like an icon in the corner of the logo.
2020 – today
They revamped the logo for the official release. The HBO bit was now on the immediate left of the ‘MAX’ part. The latter also changed – the letters became narrower, and this particularly affected the letter ‘X’, which was overly wide before. The coloring also switched to just purple with lighting effects here and there.
