Changing layout of contacts to ios16 layout

After the update to ios17 the layout of the contacts has changed significantly, but I find it very unclear; more than half of my screen is now being used for a large coloured field just used to display the name (or a poster for those who want to be fancy). Relevant details such as telephone numbers are pushed to the far end of the bottom of the screen and below.


I want the old layout back as I had under ios16; the contacts app foremost needs to be functional.


Does anyone have a clue how to change this back under ios17?


My other iphone will stay at ios16 for now; ios17 doesnt offer any significant improvements to me.

iPhone 11, iOS 16
