Chinese tipster who goes by the name Ice Universe shared a comparison chart between the Samsung Galaxy S26 series and the iPhone 17 series. The charts reveal how the weight and thinness of these models could have a greater impact on buyers’ minds.

The standard model is expected to measure 6.9mm in thickness and could weigh 164 grams. Whereas the iPhone 17 is 7.95mm in thickness and is heavier at 177 grams. Coming to Galaxy S26 Plus, the smartphone is expected to measure 7.3 mm thick, and it may weigh 191 grams. On the other hand, the iPhone 17 Pro is quite thick and measures 8.75 mm in thickness and weighs 204 grams.
Lastly, the Galaxy S26 Ultra model could measure 7.9 mm in thickness and weigh around 214 grams. Lastly, the iPhone 17 Pro Max measures similarly to the iPhone 17 Pro model, but it weighs 231 grams.
