Wow ain’t no way that first pic is the 13 vs 17 pro? My goodness the size difference looks crazy that 17 Pro almost looks like the Max.
well, the OP didn't ask about the 13"pro", just the 17 "pro". LOL but I thought the same thing at first and I don't even know why you'd want to compare the standard 13 to the 17 pro size. pro to pro makes more sense.
 
You don’t know how slow 13P is on iOS 26 until you use a 17P. And with all three cameras finally being 48MP, it’s definitely a solid upgrade.
Apps not constantly reloading due to the paltry 6GB RAM, AoD, and not having to struggle to read the screen under direct sunlight all add up.

If you can afford it, then definitely go for it. I’m quite happy with my Orange 17P.
"48 Mp". ... LMFAO. don't get us started about the lameness of the so-called / fake 48Mp nonsense.
 
what case do you have on the 17 pro?
Tekmomo case. This is Sofie Blue leather. Love this case!

Here is the link:


In the picture I don’t have a case on.

They are 2 different screen sizes so that 0.2" is across the horizontal, therefore will feel bigger.
Always kinda wondered in which way it’s bigger math isn’t my strong suit lol

So it’s kinda diagonally bigger meaning it’ll be not only taller slightly wider as well? Is that what you’re saying?
 
those pics are a bit weird tbh, the difference doesn't feel nearly as big. I struggled to see the screen difference side by side. the thinner bezels you can feel though
Yea didn’t realize ones got a case and one doesn’t. I did find a comparison video on YouTube though and side by side with the same content I do see a bit of a difference. Check out these pics:

Yes. I had a 13 Pro Max which was a 6.7" (160.9mm x 77.8mm) display and went to a 16 Pro Max with a 6.9" display (163mm x 77.6mm).

13 pro to 17 pro is the upgrade and jump I’ll be doing that’s why. 13 and 13 pro are the same size so it’s the same size jump and was just wondering if the 17 pro felt bigger even though it’s technically not by much

Right on yea see the pics I attached above. I found a side by side comparison on YouTube of the 13P and 17P and unless I’m just wanting to see the difference so it makes it easier to pull the trigger, the difference looks pretty huge imo lol

17 pro: 6.3-inch, 90.09% screen-to-body, OLED, Variable 1-120Hz, HDR, 3000 nits
13: 6.1-inch, 87.24% screen-to-body, OLED, 60Hz, HDR, 1200 nits


phonearena has a size comparison tool. You can toggle between an overlap view or a side by side view. I think you would notice a slight difference in actual screen size, but with thinner bezels, dynamic island, and a much brighter screen with pro motion, you should see a very noticeable difference overall.

From 13 to 17 Pro — on paper it’s only slightly bigger, but thinner bezels make it feel noticeably more spacious. Text, videos, and multitasking feel less cramped. Not a huge jump, but definitely more immersive in daily use.

Pictured above is my green 13 next to my 17 Pro. You can see the size difference between the two. The 17 Pro is slightly bigger.
Slightly? The entire 13 fits into the 17 Pro‘s screen, including the thick bezels and the phone frame. The usable screen real estate is significantly bigger.
Anyway, thanks for sharing those pictures!

So I’ve since went with the Air before setting on the 17P and man. I might have to just keep the Air. It’s sooo light and literally feels like the perfect size of display. Should have just went Pro because idk if I can give this up lol
