Screen size
Screen sizes for mobile devices vary widely, from small smartwatch displays around 1.5 inches to large tablets exceeding 12 inches. Most smartphones typically have screens between 5 and 7 inches, measured diagonally. This variety creates a challenge for designers who need to make interfaces work well across different sizes.
Common screen sizes follow certain patterns based on manufacturer standards and user preferences. For example, iPhones range from 4.7 inches to 6.9 inches, while Android phones offer even more variety. Tablets commonly come in 7 inch to 13 inch sizes.
Understanding these different screen sizes helps designers create flexible layouts that adapt smoothly.
