iPhone 17 Pro Max vs iPhone 16 Pro Max vs Samsung S Series: Will Your Case or Screen Protector Fit?
🥊 The Ultimate Compatibility Showdown Begins!
So, you just scored a brand-new phone—maybe the powerful iPhone 17 Pro Max, the still-impressive iPhone 16 Pro Max, or the ever-evolving Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra.
Here’s the big question everyone’s asking:
Can you use the same case or screen protector across these models?
(Spoiler: Probably not, but let’s break it down!)
Welcome to your no-fluff, all-facts compatibility guide—made fun and powered by Gorilla Cases.
🔍 What’s Changed? Let’s Compare the Specs
Phone | Screen Size | Body Size (mm) | Weight | Design Tweaks |
---|---|---|---|---|
iPhone 17 Pro Max | 6.9" | Slightly slimmer than 16PM | Lighter | USB-C, new camera bar |
iPhone 16 Pro Max | 6.7" | Taller & heavier | Heavier | Lightning port, standard camera block |
Samsung S25 Ultra | 6.8" | Taller + narrower | Medium weight | Curved edge display, punch-hole camera |
Takeaway: Even a few millimeters can ruin a good case fit. And the switch to USB-C on the iPhone 17 series? Yeah, that's a game changer.

Camera bar has changed shape
-
Action button shifted slightly
❌ Samsung S24/S25 Case on iPhone?
Definitely not.
-
Completely different body shapes, button placements, and camera layouts

Even screen protector curvature differs
