The iPhone 16 Pro series features Apple’s biggest smartphone displays yet, while also being lighter than their smaller steel predecessors. Here’s a comparison of how much lighter the titanium iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max are when stacked against the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max.

With 6.3 and 6.9-inch screens, the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max are marginally larger than the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max, which sport 6.1 and 6.7-inch screens.

However, due to their titanium construction, the new larger Pro models are noticeably lighter.

Weight Comparison: Titanium iPhone vs Steel

The iPhone 16 Pro measures 0.24 ounces lighter than the iPhone 14 Pro, which has a 6.1-inch screen.

Similarly, the iPhone 16 Pro Max is 0.48 ounces lighter than the 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max.

While these weight differences might appear minimal, they contribute to a surprisingly lighter feel in hand, given the larger device size.
