Why test your site on Google Pixel 4 XL?

3.5x density

Each CSS pixel of Google Pixel 4 XL is rendered by 3.5 physical pixels. Any image, icon, or font provided in simple resolution appears immediately blurry.

Actual media queries

The 412 x 869 pixels viewport of Google Pixel 4 XL rarely matches the round breakpoints of frameworks. It is precisely between these values that layouts break.

CSS viewport resolution of Google Pixel 4 XL

This is the width your CSS considers. All your breakpoints and media queries compare to this value, not the number of physical pixels on the panel.

412 pixels in width

869 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 Google Pixel 4 XL

The device pixel ratio of Google Pixel 4 XL is 3.5. Your images should therefore be exported 3.5 times larger than their display size, otherwise they will appear softened on this screen.

Manufacturer resolution of Google Pixel 4 XL

This is the actual number of pixels on the panel. This value does not affect your layouts, but it's the one reported by technical specifications and most analytics tools.

  • 1440 pixels in width
  • 3040 pixels in height
  • 537 pixels per inch (ppi)
  • 6.3 inches diagonal, or 16 cm
  • Screen ratio of 19:9

Media queries and code snippets for Google Pixel 4 XL

These snippets are generated from the exact characteristics of Google Pixel 4 XL. Copy them directly into your stylesheet or configuration.

CSS media query

Targets screens whose width matches that of Google Pixel 4 XL and models of the same format.

@media only screen and (min-width: 412px) and (max-width: 868px) {
  /* Google Pixel 4 XL */
}

Density media query

Serves high-resolution images to screens of at least 3.5x.

@media only screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 3.5),
       only screen and (min-resolution: 336dpi) {
  /* High-density images and icons */
}

Tailwind configuration

Adds a named breakpoint at the exact width of Google Pixel 4 XL.

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    screens: {
      'google-pixel-4-xl': '412px'
    }
  }
}

JavaScript detection

Detects format and density client-side.

const isDeviceWidth = window.matchMedia('(min-width: 412px)').matches;
const isHighDensity = window.devicePixelRatio >= 3.5;

Meta viewport tag

Essential for Google Pixel 4 XL to use its CSS viewport and not a simulated width of 980 pixels.

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

Free Google Pixel 4 XL simulator

Mobile FIRST does not yet include Google Pixel 4 XL, 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 Google Pixel 4 XL — Select Google Pixel 4 XL from the list of devices. The viewport switches to 412 x 869 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 Google Pixel 4 XL 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

Models sharing the format of Google Pixel 4 XL

These 2 devices share exactly the viewport of 412 x 869 pixels and the 3.5x density of Google Pixel 4 XL. Their CSS rendering is therefore exactly the same: what you validate on one is valid on all others.
