The iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max are here, bringing Apple’s latest innovations in design, performance, and camera technology. While they share many features, each model has its own unique strengths. In this blog, we’ll break down the key differences between the two to help you decide which iPhone 17 is the perfect fit for you.
iPhone 17 Pro vs iPhone 17 Pro Max : Differences in Design and Screen
At first glance, the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max look very similar, as they belong to the same product line. Both are available in Silver, Cosmic Orange, and Deep Blue, featuring a unibody aluminum frame with a polished glass back that supports MagSafe wireless charging. The main difference is their screen size: the iPhone 17 Pro has a 6.3-inch display, while the iPhone 17 Pro Max sports a 6.9-inch display, making it the iPhone with the largest screen to date.
iPhone 17 Pro vs iPhone 17 Pro Max: Differences in Camera
The iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max both feature Apple’s latest triple-camera system with wide, ultra-wide, and telephoto lenses, offering advanced computational photography, improved low-light performance, and cinematic video recording.
The front camera has been upgraded from 12 to 18 megapixels, allowing you to crop selfies while minimizing quality loss. Both models also support Dual Capture, allowing you to simultaneously record from multiple cameras for versatile perspectives. Additionally, the camera sensor has been enlarged so you can take selfies without having to rotate your phone. Both models also allow you to record uncompressed ProRes RAW video directly, perfect for professional video editors.
iPhone 17 Pro vs iPhone 17 Pro Max : Differences in Battery
The iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max both deliver impressive battery life, with the iPhone 17 Pro Max lasting up to 39 hours and the iPhone 17 Pro up to 33 hours — the longest battery life ever on an iPhone. This was made possible by optimizing the internal layout to accommodate a larger battery. Charging has also improved: with a 40W adapter or higher (available separately) paired with a USB-C charging cable, both models can go from 0 to 50% in about 20 minutes, keeping you powered up quickly throughout the day.
