Looking at it online, it looks like the physical device of the 8 Plus is larger, but the screen size is smaller because it has the button below the screen and no screen to the left or right side of the button. However since the 16e uses the entire space for the screen without that button, the physical dimensions of the phone are smaller, but the screen size is larger. Does that sound correct?

Thanks,

Jim

Sounds right to me, I checked the technical specifics for you and the height, width, and weight of the 8 Plus are more than the 16e. You are most welcome.
