Not quite, because if you measure the actual phone’s body—not just the glowing screen—it’s a different story. The iPhone 7 Plus is 6.23 inches tall and 3.07 inches wide. Why does that matter? Because when you’re hunting for a case, that chunky body is what you’re trying to wrap. The screen might be 5.5 inches, but the phone itself feels wider and heavier than modern ones with similar displays—thanks to those chunky bezels we used to call “home button territory.”
Let’s get a little nostalgic: the iPhone 7 Plus was the first one with a dual camera, the one that made “Portrait Mode” a dinner-table flex. It also killed the headphone jack, which was the techworld’s first big “really, Apple?” tantrum. Remember buying that dongle only to lose it within a week? You know you did. And yet, despite all that drama, the 5.5-inch screen was considered massive. Today, that size is what we’d call “cute” or “vintage,” like a Polaroid camera.
