More details below...

Some girls like a phone that's small, sleek, and stylish, while others prefer something with a bit of heft and a big enough screen to make watching movies with the girls a possibility. For Wildflower, every iPhone is a canvas for our limited edition cases, which is why we're going to dig super deep into the iPhone models we cover so you can pick the right size.

Why Choosing the Right Size Matters

There's many an iPhone model out there, and all have different sizes. And we're not just talking about the sizes of the phones themselves. iPhone display size, camera improvements, and the ability to accommodate larger batteries can all influence the choice you make when it comes to picking an iPhone.

"What's the big deal?" you ask us. "The iPhone size I have isn't that important, right?"

It does and for all of the following reasons:

Picking a Case
It's not so much that the size of your phone matters when picking a case and more that you know the size of your phone. To explain why, imagine buying your stunning new Wildflower case, only to find that it keeps slipping off your phone. Or, worse yet, that it doesn't even fit to begin with. If you've found the perfect Wildflower case, you need to make sure you have the phone to match.

Battery Life
The smallest iPhone models have excellent battery life because they don't have to power as much stuff (mostly your screen). Bigger iPhones may not have such a strong battery life, though this varies depending on the model, so you may lean toward a smaller phone if you need something that's going to last the whole night when you're out with the girls.

Screen Sizes
When you want an impromptu movie night with the girls and there isn't a TV in sight, your iPhone comes to the rescue. Or, at least it does as long as the phone has a big enough screen for you to watch your movies without feeling like you suddenly need glasses just to see what's going on.

Viewing Photos
You spent an eternity getting the right angles and lighting for your selfie, so you probably want a phone that showcases all of the effort you put in. All iPhones display photos well, but it's any with a bigger screen that highlights every little detail. A little hint - pixel density matters here, too.

Comfort
Let us tell you a tale of two phones. One phone is huge, which is great for watching movies, but it feels like you're lugging a weight around in your purse when you're on a night out. The other has a smaller screen (and is a smaller phone) that makes it easy to carry. Comfort, girls, is often just as important as size.

 

The Sizes (And More) of Different iPhone Models

We could do the boring thing here and create a big iPhone size comparison chart that covers how the iPhone 16 compares to the iPhone 17 and blah, blah, blah. But at Wildflower, the devil is in the details, as you'll see with every case that we create.

So, we're going to go one better than a chart. We'll cover the sizes (and all of the important specifications) of every phone for which we offer cases so you know exactly what you're getting when you spend your money on a new Apple iPhone.

iPhone 17
The iPhone 17 keeps that classic, reliable feel we love. It measures 5.81 x 2.82 inches (147.6 x 71.6 mm) with a depth of 0.31 inches (7.8 mm). While it looks similar to its sisters, the big news here is the screen—Apple finally brought the 120Hz ProMotion display to the base model! That means scrolling through your feed is smoother than ever.

It’s got a 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR display, which is perfect for most hands. Plus, the new 24MP front camera means your selfies are going to be crystal clear, even before you add a filter. It’s the perfect middle-ground phone for a girl who wants the latest tech without the "Pro" price tag.

iPhone 17 Air
Say hello to the new girl on the block! The iPhone 17 Air is all about that ultra-sleek aesthetic. It’s remarkably thin—rumored at just around 0.20 inches (approx. 5 mm)—making it the thinnest iPhone ever made. It’s roughly 6.30 x 3.00 inches (160 x 76 mm) to accommodate a beautiful 6.6-inch display.

Because it’s so slim, it only has one camera on the back, but don’t let that fool you—it’s a powerhouse. This is for the girl who treats her phone like the ultimate fashion accessory. It’s lightweight, fits into the tiniest of clutches, and looks absolutely stunning in a Wildflower case.

iPhone 17 Pro
The iPhone 17 Pro is where power meets style. Measuring 5.89 x 2.81 inches (149.6 x 71.5 mm), it’s just a tiny bit taller than the base 17 but keeps that 6.3-inch Pro display. The titanium frame makes it feel expensive and sturdy without being too heavy for a long night out.

The real tea? The "Under-Display" Face ID. It makes the screen look more seamless than ever. With a triple-lens camera system including a 48MP Telephoto lens, you’re basically carrying a professional photography studio in your pocket.

iPhone 17 Pro Max
If you want the biggest and the best, the iPhone 17 Pro Max is the queen. It measures 6.42 x 3.02 inches (163 x 76.7 mm) and boasts a massive 6.9-inch display. It’s the largest canvas we offer for our Wildflower designs!

It has all the Pro features—titanium build, incredible zoom, and a battery that lasts through even the longest TikTok scrolling sessions. It’s a bit of a handful, but for the girl who uses her phone for everything from vlogging to editing, it’s the only choice.

iPhone 16 / 16 Plus
The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus brought a nostalgic vibe back with a vertical camera layout (perfect for Spatial photos!). The base 16 is 5.81 x 2.82 inches (147.6 x 71.6 mm), while the Plus stays big at 6.33 x 3.06 inches (160.9 x 77.8 mm).

The coolest addition? The Camera Control button. It’s a touch-sensitive button on the side that lets you slide your finger to zoom or swap modes. It’s a total game-changer for snapping the perfect group pic. Both models feature the Action Button too, so you can silence your phone or turn on the flashlight with one click.

iPhone 16 Pro / Pro Max
The iPhone 16 Pro series saw a size bump from the previous year. The iPhone 16 Pro moved to a 6.3-inch screen (5.89 x 2.81 inches), and the iPhone 16 Pro Max jumped to 6.9 inches (6.42 x 3.02 inches). They are sleek, made of Grade 5 Titanium, and featured the thinnest borders (bezels) ever seen on a phone at the time.

The camera is the star here, with a 48MP Ultra Wide lens that makes your outfit shots look like they belong in a magazine. If you love a high-tech, "Main Character" energy phone, these are it.

iPhone 15 / 15 Plus
The iPhone 15 (5.81 x 2.82 inches) and iPhone 15 Plus (6.33 x 3.06 inches) were the first to ditch the notch for the Dynamic Island, which we still obsess over for tracking our Uber or music. They also introduced the "color-infused" glass back which feels like silk in your hand.

These were the first iPhones to use USB-C, so you can finally share a charger with your iPad or MacBook friends. With a 48MP main camera, they’re still incredible for everyday photos and look amazing in our classic floral or coquette-style cases.

iPhone 15 Pro / Pro Max
The iPhone 15 Pro (5.77 x 2.78 inches) and iPhone 15 Pro Max (6.29 x 3.02 inches) were the pioneers of the Titanium era. They are noticeably lighter than the older 14 Pro models, which is a lifesaver for your wrists.

The Pro Max introduced the 5x Telephoto zoom, which is perfect for getting clear shots of the stage at concerts. Even a few years later, these phones are fast, powerful, and fit perfectly in our most popular limited-edition cases.

iPhone 14
As one of the latest models of the iPhone, the iPhone 14 has almost everything that a girl could want in her phone. Starting with size, it measures 2.82 x 5.78 inches (71.5 x 146.7 mm), with a depth of 0.31 inches (7.8mm) to make it thick enough to feel tough without being so thick that it's uncomfortable in your hands.

That solid size means it has a 6.1-inch display, which isn't the largest iPhone display in the world but is certainly big enough to watch movies with. It also has a Super Retina XDR display, which is Apple's fancy way of telling you that the screen packs in so many pixels that you'll be able to pick out individual eyelashes in your selfies.

Fingerprints won't be a problem thanks to the oleophobic coating on the screen - which basically makes the screen so scared of smudges that you won't see any. And the cameras (both the back and front camera) are perfect for snapping selfies, and they even come with night mode so you don't lose any detail.

iPhone 14 Plus
For the girl who feels like bigger is always better, the iPhone 14 Plus is like a supersized version of the iPhone 14. Starting with size, it measures 3.07 x 6.33 inches (78.1 x 160.8 mm), so you're getting a bigger phone with a bigger screen. Depth is the same as the iPhone 14, too, so you don't have to deal with extra bulk just because you want a bigger screen.

A bigger phone means a larger display, with the iPhone 14 Plus offering a solid 6.7-inch OLED screen. But beyond that, there's not a whole lot to separate the Plus from its regular iPhone 14 counterpart.

So, this is the choice for girls who want larger phones without being too worried about their phones performing much better than the base models.

iPhone 14 Pro
The iPhone 14 Pro isn't the biggest iPhone on the market. It just about inches out (literally) the iPhone 14 when it comes to height, packing in 5.81 inches (147.5 mm), though it's actually just a touch narrower at 2.81 inches (71.5 mm). Depth is the same as the standard iPhone 14, and it also has a 6.1-inch display.

"So...why bother with the Pro if it's basically the same size as the iPhone 14?" you ask. Two words - Dynamic Island.

Every time Apple puts out a new iPhone, they try and bring something new and exciting to the table. The iPhone 14 Pro has Dynamic Island, which is a little pill-like area on the phone that isn't available on any other iPhones. It does some pretty fun stuff, too, like housing your camera display options and changing size for different types of notifications.

iPhone 14 Pro Max

Taking it to the "max" means you get a 3.05 x 6.33-inch phone (77.6 x 160.7 mm), which is about the same size as the iPhone 14 Plus. Both have 6.7-inch OLED displays, too, so there's little to choose between them there, either.

Again, that leads to a crucial question - why choose the iPhone 14 Pro Max model when the Plus is right there and is almost exactly the same size? The Pro Max has the Dynamic Island in the base Pro model, making it fun for girls who like to have unique little notification settings and want more control over their camera.

But it's the camera that's the real showpiece. The main camera is 48 megapixels (that's four times more than the iPhone Plus), with every other camera matching the 12 megapixels you get with the base iPhone 14 models. For the girl that loves snapping pics on a night out, you're not going to get much better.

Add in stuff like Portrait mode, Night mode, and a beautiful sapphire crystal lens cover, and you have a camera that's as good as anything the pros use.

iPhone 13
Moving on to the next iPhone model down from the iPhone 14, the iPhone 13 basically matches the 14 step for step when it comes to size. It's also 5.78 x 2.82 inches (146.7 x 71.5 mm), though it's just a touch thinner at 0.3 inches (7.65mm). The 13 has the same display size as the 14, too, so if size is all that matters to you, then the iPhone 13 may be a better choice just because it's smaller.

Moving on from screen size, Apple released the 13 with a Super Retina HD display, haptic touch, and both face ID and touch ID features. So, again, there's little to separate the iPhone 13 from the new phone in Apple's line-up there.

So, what's the point in getting the iPhone 14 if you already have the 13? For one, the iPhone 14 is just a smidge lighter, so it might feel more comfortable to carry around. But it's the presence of Photonic Engine technology (or lack of it in the case of the iPhone 13) that separates the two. That clever little engine is great for mid and low-light selfies because it touches them up for you.

iPhone 13 Mini
"Mini" by name isn't quite as mini by nature with the iPhone 13 Mini. Sure, it's smaller than the base model, coming in at 2.53 x 5.18 inches (61.2 x 131.5mm), and that translates to a 5.4-inch display instead of a 6.1-inch one. But that's not so much shrinkage that it's going to make a massive impact, as we think the screen is still large enough to watch videos and movies.

Beyond the smaller screen, you're getting most of the same stuff as you get with the iPhone 13. The camera has a cinematic mode (just like the iPhone 13) and the sim tray has a dual-sim setup if you want to have a physical sim and eSim.

Basically, you're losing out on an ultra-wide screen for an iPhone model that fits better in more petite hands or in smaller clutches. Perfect for those nights out with the girls.

iPhone 13 Pro
As you saw with the iPhone 14 base model and iPhone 14 Pro comparisons, screen size isn't what makes an iPhone "Pro." In other words, you're not getting one of the biggest iPhones ever with the iPhone 13 Pro because it matches the 5.78 x 2.82 inches (146.7 x 71.5 mm) of the base model, and has the same screen size, too.

So, you have two iPhones that seem the same and a choice to make. What makes the iPhone 13 Pro stand out?

Video wins the day. Or, more specifically, the ability to watch videos for longer with the Pro. With iPhone 13 Pro models, you get 22 hours of video playback versus the iPhone 13's 19 hours. If you're trying to squeeze out that last movie on low battery (or watch a few clips of your last night out), the Pro gives you more of a chance than the iPhone 13.

iPhone 13 Pro Max

If you're looking for the biggest iPhone Apple makes, the iPhone 13 Pro Max is the one. It's just a touch larger than the 14 Pro range of iPhone models, measuring in at 6.33 x 3.07 inches (160.8 x 78.1 mm), and it has a beefy 6.7-inch display that'll put your smaller old iPhone to shame.

Of course, that extra size gives the iPhone 13 Pro Max a little more weight than smaller iPhone sizes, which is definitely something you'll want to consider if you want to add a Wildflower case to the phone. That extra weight can be a nightmare on a night out when you've danced so much that you feel exhausted.

Compared to the standard 13 Pro, the iPhone 13 Pro Max model doesn't do much different. It lasts a little longer (always a good thing, girls) when you're surfing the web. But it's all about bigger being better if you go for this iPhone.

 

Love Your Phone with a Gorgeous Wildflower Case
Wow, that was a long article, right? Let's sum it up for you.

If you're looking for the biggest iPhones around (and the biggest canvases for your Wildflower cases), you're usually going to need the Plus or Max models. There are some exceptions, such as the older Plus models being about the same size as today's base iPhones, but it's still a good rule of thumb.

iPhone Minis give you something smaller and sleeker, as the name suggests, but you often lose a bit of power to make up for the frame shrinkage. And the base models offer a middle point if you want something that's big enough.

With all of that said, there's only one thing left to do - make your phone unmistakably you with a beautiful Wildflower case.

The eagle-eyed girls out there will probably already have noticed that there are links in the information for every phone size that you can follow to check out the stunning limited edition cases we have waiting for you.
