Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max dimensions

According to the leak, the iPhone 16 Pro Max measures 163.024mm × 77.575mm × 8.26mm. Those dimensions, per Apple Insider, are all bigger than the iPhone 15 Pro Max; the new one is 3.1mm taller, 0.88mm wider, and 1mm thicker. The reason for that is the rumored new screen size of 6.9-inches, beating out the 6.7-inch display on last year’s model.

For better readability, here is an easy-to-read comparison of the iPhone 16 Pro Max’s dimensions and its predecessor:

iPhone 15 Pro Max – 76.7 × 159.9 × 8.25 mm (3.02 inches wide, 6.29 inches tall, 0.32 inches thick)

iPhone 16 Pro Max – 77.5 x 163 x 8.26mm (3.05 inches wide, 6.41 inches tall, 0.33 inches thick)

Aside from that, Ice Universe claims the new iPhone 16 Pro Max will have “the world’s closest smartphone to a borderless sci-fi form factor.” The bezel reportedly comes in at 1.153mm around all four borders of the phone. As we reported, if this rumor is true, the iPhone 16 Pro Max is poised to break a world record.

So, the new phone is a little bit bigger, but the bezels are smaller. Hopefully it actually, you know, can do some cool stuff, too.
