Why test your site on Apple iPhone 12 Mini?

Narrow viewport

With only 360 pixels wide, Apple iPhone 12 Mini is among the most restrictive formats. This is where tables overflow, titles break poorly, and buttons become too small.

3x density

Each CSS pixel of Apple iPhone 12 Mini is rendered by 3 physical pixels. Any image, icon, or font provided in simple resolution appears immediately blurry.

Very elongated screen

With a ratio of 19.5:9, Apple iPhone 12 Mini displays a lot of height for little width. Sections designed in landscape become endless columns, and full-screen visuals are poorly cropped.

CSS viewport resolution of Apple iPhone 12 Mini

This is the resolution that interests designers and developers the most, as it determines breakpoints and the definition of media queries. In practice, it's the only one mentioned in a stylesheet.

  • 360 pixels in width
  • 780 pixels in height

The height remains indicative: Safari, Chrome, and other mobile browsers reduce the visible area with their address bar, which folds on scroll.

Be cautious when analyzing your statistics: some tools only report the manufacturer resolution, never the CSS viewport presented here.

Pixel density of Apple iPhone 12 Mini

3

The device pixel ratio of Apple iPhone 12 Mini is 3.

In other words, a 1-pixel square in CSS occupies 3 pixels on the panel. An image exported at actual size will appear blurry.

Manufacturer resolution of Apple iPhone 12 Mini

This resolution is the hardware's. It explains the display's sharpness, but it's never the one to target in a media query.

  • 1080 pixels in width
  • 2340 pixels in height
  • 19.5:9 Screen ratio

477 pixels per inch (ppi) · 5.4 inches diagonal, or 13.7 cm
