Screen resolution vs viewport size

Your screen resolution is the total number of pixels your display can show — for example, 1920×1080 (Full HD) or 2560×1440 (QHD). This is a property of your monitor or display hardware.

Your viewport size is the area of the browser window where web content is displayed. It is always smaller than or equal to your screen resolution, because the browser window includes chrome (address bar, tabs, toolbars) that takes up space outside the viewport.

Common screen resolutions

  • 1920×1080 — Full HD, most common desktop resolution
  • 2560×1440 — QHD / 2K, popular on gaming monitors
  • 3840×2160 — 4K UHD, increasingly common on premium displays
  • 2560×1600 — standard on MacBook Pro (Retina)
  • 390×844 — common on iPhone models
  • 412×915 — common on Android flagship phones

What is device pixel ratio (DPR)?

The device pixel ratio (DPR) is the ratio between physical pixels on your screen and logical (CSS) pixels. A DPR of 2 means your display has 2 physical pixels for every 1 CSS pixel — this is what Apple calls "Retina" and what high-DPI or HiDPI displays use.

High DPR displays (2x, 3x) render text and images at much higher quality than standard 1x displays. Web developers use the DPR value to serve appropriately sized images — for example, serving a 400px-wide image at 2x resolution actually displays at 200 CSS pixels but with twice the detail.

Typical DPR values by device

  • 1x — standard monitors and older displays
  • 1.5x — some Windows laptops with medium-DPI displays
  • 2x — MacBook Retina, iPhone, most Android flagships
  • 3x — iPhone Pro models, Samsung Galaxy S series

Frequently Asked Questions about Screen Resolution

What is my screen resolution?
Your current screen resolution is shown in the live results card above. It is detected using JavaScript's screen.width and screen.height properties.
Why is my viewport smaller than my screen resolution?
The viewport is the area inside your browser window where web content is displayed. Your browser's user interface (address bar, tabs, bookmarks bar) occupies space outside the viewport, making it smaller than the total screen resolution.
What is a Retina display?
A Retina display (Apple's marketing term) is a display with a device pixel ratio of 2x or higher. This means the display has twice as many physical pixels per inch as a standard display, resulting in sharper text and images that are indistinguishable to the human eye at normal viewing distances.
Does SnoopMy store my screen resolution?
No. Screen resolution detection is performed entirely in your browser using JavaScript. No data is sent to or stored on our servers.
