Why test your site on Apple iPhone 8 Plus?

3x density

Each CSS pixel of Apple iPhone 8 Plus is rendered by 3 physical pixels. Any image, icon, or font provided in simple resolution appears immediately blurry.

Older hardware

The hardware of Apple iPhone 8 Plus dates from 2017. Its processor makes costly animations, heavy scripts, and display times visible that recent devices mask.

Actual media queries

The 414 x 736 pixels viewport of Apple iPhone 8 Plus rarely matches the round breakpoints of frameworks. It is precisely between these values that layouts break.

CSS viewport resolution of Apple iPhone 8 Plus

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.

414 pixels in width

736 pixels in height (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 8 Plus

The device pixel ratio of Apple iPhone 8 Plus 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 8 Plus

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
  • 1920 pixels in height
  • 401 pixels per inch (ppi)
  • 5.5 inches diagonal, or 14 cm
  • Screen ratio of 16:9

Le panneau est en 1080x1920 mais iOS rend en 1242x2208 avant sous-échantillonnage matériel : l'écart avec viewport x densité est normal.

Media queries and code snippets for Apple iPhone 8 Plus

These snippets are generated from the exact characteristics of Apple iPhone 8 Plus. Copy them directly into your stylesheet or configuration.

CSS media query

Targets screens whose width matches that of Apple iPhone 8 Plus and models of the same format.

@media only screen and (min-width: 414px) and (max-width: 735px) {
  /* Apple iPhone 8 Plus */
}

Density media query

Serves high-resolution images to screens of at least 3x.

@media only screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 3),
       only screen and (min-resolution: 288dpi) {
  /* High-density images and icons */
}

Tailwind configuration

Adds a named breakpoint at the exact width of Apple iPhone 8 Plus.

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    screens: {
      'apple-iphone-8-plus': '414px'
    }
  }
}

JavaScript detection

Detects format and density client-side.

const isDeviceWidth = window.matchMedia('(min-width: 414px)').matches;
const isHighDensity = window.devicePixelRatio >= 3;

Meta viewport tag

Essential for Apple iPhone 8 Plus to use its CSS viewport and not a simulated width of 980 pixels.

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

Free Apple iPhone 8 Plus simulator

Mobile FIRST does not yet include Apple iPhone 8 Plus, but a model with the same format is available. You can already validate your breakpoints and display density.

This is where the difference with Chrome DevTools' responsive mode is seen: DevTools resizes a window, the extension replicates the device's browser and allows exporting shareable screenshots and videos.

  1. 01 Install the extension — Add Mobile FIRST to Chrome, Firefox, or Edge. Installation is free and requires no account.
  2. 02 Open the page to test — Go to the URL to check, including a local address like localhost:3000.
  3. 03 Choose Apple iPhone 8 Plus — Select Apple iPhone 8 Plus from the list of devices. The viewport switches to 414 x 736 pixels, and the mobile User-Agent is applied.
  4. 04 Check rendering — Scroll, change orientation, test your forms, then capture an image or video to share.

Test your site on Apple iPhone 8 Plus directly in your browser, without buying the device.

  • Over 70 devices included, including a model with the same format
  • Real viewport, User-Agent, and touch events
  • Also works on localhost and in pre-production
  • Exportable screenshots and videos
