Yeah,photo's can be deceiving...
They can actually scale the 7" device, to make it look as wide as the 6" device...
So you can't really trust that...

If the proportion of height and width are in a 1:1 ratio, we could say that the 7" device does appear to have a longer screen.
But it takes very little for a photo editor to just stretch the picture and make it appear as if the device is longer.
