Why test your site on Apple iPhone X?

3x density

Each CSS pixel of Apple iPhone X 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 X displays a lot of height for little width. Sections designed in landscape become endless columns, and full-screen visuals are poorly cropped.

Older hardware

The hardware of Apple iPhone X dates from 2018. Its processor makes costly animations, heavy scripts, and display times visible that recent devices mask.

CSS viewport resolution of Apple iPhone X

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.

  • 375 pixels in width
  • 812 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 X

3

The device pixel ratio of Apple iPhone X 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 X

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

  • 1125 pixels in width
  • 2436 pixels in height
  • 19.5:9 Screen ratio

463 pixels per inch (ppi) · 5.8 inches diagonal, or 14.7 cm

Media queries and code snippets for Apple iPhone X

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

CSS media query

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

@media only screen and (min-width: 375px) and (max-width: 811px) {
  /* Apple iPhone X */
}

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 X.

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    screens: {
      'apple-iphone-x': '375px'
    }
  }
}

JavaScript detection

Detects format and density client-side.

const isDeviceWidth = window.matchMedia('(min-width: 375px)').matches;
const isHighDensity = window.devicePixelRatio >= 3;

Meta viewport tag

Essential for Apple iPhone X 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 X simulator

Mobile FIRST includes Apple iPhone X: your page displays in a viewport of 375 x 812 pixels, with the model's User-Agent, touch events, and scrolling behavior of a real mobile.

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 X Select Apple iPhone X from the list of devices. The viewport switches to 375 x 812 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.

Models sharing the format of Apple iPhone X

These 2 devices share exactly the viewport of 375 x 812 pixels and the 3x density of Apple iPhone X. Their CSS rendering is therefore exactly the same: what you validate on one is valid on all others.

Comparison with similar models

The neighboring formats of Apple iPhone X are the ones to test right after, as they reveal poorly placed breakpoints.
