The iPhone 17 has grown just a touch this year to make room for its new, larger 6.3-inch display. It's approximately 2 mm taller and slightly thicker than the iPhone 16, although its width remains almost identical. In practice, the difference in size is barely perceptible - the new model still feels compact, balanced, and easy to handle, true to the spirit of Apple's standard iPhones.
Interestingly, many of you will consider the Pro to have the more premium choice of materials of the two as it incorporates a glass back and aluminum frame with a Gorilla Glass 7i protective sheet on the front. The F8 Ultra, on the other hand, has a Poco Shield Glass on the front, an aluminum frame, and either a fiber-reinforced plastic back or a silicone polymer back.
If you're shopping for your next Android flagship, you'll quickly narrow it down to two heavyweights: the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL or the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. The Pixel offers a clean, stock Android experience and benefits from Google's camera-first tuning. The Galaxy, meanwhile, brings veteran polish: a feature-rich One UI, full S Pen support, and an all-around balanced package.
