How the iPhone 17 Pro Max compares

The iPhone 17 Pro Max has the same 440 × 956 point screen as the iPhone 16 Pro Max: a 6.9-inch panel of 2868 × 1320 pixels at 460 ppi. Compared with the iPhone 16 Plus it is 10 points wider and 24 points taller, about one more row in a list.

Its successor, the iPhone 18 Pro Max, kept the same panel, so the 17 Pro Max is still the shape of the largest current iPhone.

What designers need to know

  • At 440 points wide, a two-column grid has room to breathe; at 402 it is tight. Build grids that adapt to the width instead of fixing a column size.
  • The Dynamic Island sits inside a 62 point top safe area in Borel's preview: keep headers below it.
  • If your App Store screenshots come from this phone, they are 1320 × 2868. Apple accepts them for the large Dynamic Island group.

App Store screenshots

Apple puts the iPhone 17 Pro Max in its iPhone with Dynamic Island (large display) group, which takes 1260 × 2736, 1290 × 2796, 1320 × 2868 pixels in portrait. This group is optional: App Store Connect fills it with scaled copies of another group's screenshots when you skip it.

Build for this screen with Borel

Borel writes iPhone apps in Swift with SwiftUI, whose layouts follow the safe area of whichever iPhone they run on, so one app fits this screen and every other here. You try it in Apple's iOS Simulator in your browser, with no Mac needed.
