What these size differences mean
Calculated from the dimensions shown, rounded to 0.1 mm and 1 g. Percentages use the smaller measurement as the reference. Fold and rotation settings affect the dimensions compared.
- iPhone 17 Pro is 1.1 mm (1.6% relative to Pixel 8) wider. Check this difference against the width of your current device and pocket opening.
- Pixel 8 is 0.5 mm (0.3% relative to iPhone 17 Pro) taller. This describes the body outline; screen diagonal alone does not tell you the overall size.
- Pixel 8 is 0.1 mm (1.1% relative to iPhone 17 Pro) thicker. Cases and camera protrusions can change the clearance you need.
- Pixel 8 is 19 g lighter. This is the listed device-weight difference, not a measured comfort rating.
Use these figures to compare physical size. They do not establish one-handed reach, pocket fit, durability or an overall winner.
