With a density of 2.75x, Google Pixel 4 provides a useful benchmark to ensure your images remain sharp without serving unnecessarily large files.
The 393 x 830 pixels viewport of Google Pixel 4 rarely matches the round breakpoints of frameworks. It is precisely between these values that layouts break.
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.
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.
2.75
The device pixel ratio of Google Pixel 4 is 2.75.
Your images should therefore be exported 2.75 times larger than their display size, otherwise they will appear softened on this screen.
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.

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.
The neighboring formats of Google Pixel 4 are the ones to test right after, as they reveal poorly placed breakpoints.

The CSS viewport of Google Pixel 4 measures 393 pixels wide and 830 pixels high. This is the width to use for defining your media queries, not the manufacturer's resolution.
The device pixel ratio of Google Pixel 4 is 2.75. Each CSS pixel is thus displayed by 2.75 physical pixels, requiring you to provide your images in 2.75x to keep them sharp.
The panel of Google Pixel 4 displays 1080 x 2280 physical pixels. This is the value reported by most analytics tools, while your CSS works on a viewport of 393 x 830 pixels.
Install the Mobile FIRST extension on Chrome, Firefox, or Edge, then select Google Pixel 4. Your page displays in a viewport of 393 x 830 pixels with the corresponding mobile User-Agent, in two clicks and for free.
DevTools resizes the window and applies partial emulation. Mobile FIRST additionally applies the User-Agent of Google Pixel 4, touch events, scroll behavior, and the actual appearance of the device, and allows capturing directly usable images and videos.
Yes. The extension works on any URL open in your browser, including localhost:3000, 127.0.0.1, or a password-protected pre-production environment.
No. The simulation covers the vast majority of development needs at no cost. A final test on a real device is still recommended before critical production deployment, but it's no longer necessary for each iteration.
A media query on the exact width targets Google Pixel 4: @media only screen and (min-width: 393px). Combine it with the pixel density to precisely target this model and those sharing its format.
