"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."
"Unlike the iPhone 17 Pro models, Apple didn't shake up the design language of the vanilla iPhone this year - no titanium frame, no new glass "window" insert, and no dramatic styling changes. It's the same clean, classic look that many users prefer, though others might see it as a bit too conservative compared to the fresh aesthetic of the Pros."
iPhone 17 represents a more substantial generational step compared with iPhone 16, delivering a larger 6.3-inch display and modest increases in height and thickness while maintaining similar width. The device remains compact and pocket-friendly, with weight rising marginally to 177 grams. Construction retains an aluminum frame and flat glass panels, now protected by Ceramic Shield 2 and keeping an IP68 rating. The vanilla model preserves Apple's classic, conservative design rather than adopting Pro-level materials like titanium or a new glass insert. Some test results indicate that the newer model is not uniformly superior in every area.
