    The "screens" (that portion used to display things) are identical in size.

     

    The home button will be somewhat different.

     

    The thought of un-pasting a screen protector from one device and re-applying it to another does not sound very wise.  Screen protectors are not very expensive.  Are you certain you want to do this?

    No, my plan was to buy an iPhone 6s glass screen protector because they are cheaper then the iPhone 7 screen protectors. I know they have them hiked up because this phone is new. I just thought I could save if the old ones fit.

    Well, I think the screens are different (as in differently made - they certainly have different color display capabilities) ... but as I say the size of the display area has not changed.

     

    You're paying quite a bit for a brand new iPhone.  Is it really worth saving a small amount of money on the protector?  There is likely a reason the protectors cost different amounts aside from simply dealing with a newer model iPhone.  The protectors may well be literally different - though not in size.
