Why test your site on LG G5?

Narrow viewport

With only 360 pixels wide, LG G5 is among the most restrictive formats. This is where tables overflow, titles break poorly, and buttons become too small.

4x density

Each CSS pixel of LG G5 is rendered by 4 physical pixels. Any image, icon, or font provided in simple resolution appears immediately blurry.

Older hardware

The hardware of LG G5 dates from 2016. Its processor makes costly animations, heavy scripts, and display times visible that recent devices mask.

CSS viewport resolution of LG G5

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
  • 640 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 LG G5

4

The device pixel ratio of LG G5 is 4.

In other words, a 1-pixel square in CSS occupies 4 pixels on the panel. An image exported at actual size will appear blurry.

Manufacturer resolution of LG G5

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

  • 1440 pixels in width
  • 2560 pixels in height
  • 16:9 Screen ratio

554 pixels per inch (ppi) · 5.3 inches diagonal, or 13.5 cm

Media queries and code snippets for LG G5

These snippets are generated from the exact characteristics of LG G5. Copy them directly into your stylesheet or configuration.

CSS media query

Targets screens whose width matches that of LG G5 and models of the same format.

@media only screen and (min-width: 360px) and (max-width: 639px) {
  /* LG G5 */
}

Density media query

Serves high-resolution images to screens of at least 4x.

@media only screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 4),
       only screen and (min-resolution: 384dpi) {
  /* High-density images and icons */
}

Tailwind configuration

Adds a named breakpoint at the exact width of LG G5.

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    screens: {
      'lg-g5': '360px'
    }
  }
}

JavaScript detection

Detects format and density client-side.

const isDeviceWidth = window.matchMedia('(min-width: 360px)').matches;
const isHighDensity = window.devicePixelRatio >= 4;

Meta viewport tag

Essential for LG G5 to use its CSS viewport and not a simulated width of 980 pixels.

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

Free LG G5 simulator

Mobile FIRST does not yet include LG G5, 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 LG G5 Select LG G5 from the list of devices. The viewport switches to 360 x 640 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 LG G5

These 4 devices share exactly the viewport of 360 x 640 pixels and the 4x density of LG G5. 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 LG G5 are the ones to test right after, as they reveal poorly placed breakpoints.

Frequently asked questions about LG G5

What is the CSS viewport resolution of LG G5?

The CSS viewport of LG G5 measures 360 pixels wide and 640 pixels high. This is the width to use for defining your media queries, not the manufacturer's resolution.

What is the pixel density of LG G5?

The device pixel ratio of LG G5 is 4. Each CSS pixel is thus displayed by 4 physical pixels, requiring you to provide your images in 4x to keep them sharp.

What is the screen resolution of LG G5?

The panel of LG G5 displays 1440 x 2560 physical pixels. This is the value reported by most analytics tools, while your CSS works on a viewport of 360 x 640 pixels.

Which devices have the same viewport as LG G5?

4 other models share exactly the viewport of 360 x 640 pixels and the 4x density of LG G5: Samsung S6, Samsung S6 edge, Samsung S7, Samsung S7 edge. A rendering validated on one is valid on all others.

How to test my site on LG G5 without the device?

Install the Mobile FIRST extension on Chrome, Firefox, or Edge, then select LG G5. Your page displays in a viewport of 360 x 640 pixels with the corresponding mobile User-Agent, in two clicks and for free.

What is the difference with Chrome DevTools' responsive mode?

DevTools resizes the window and applies partial emulation. Mobile FIRST additionally applies the User-Agent of LG G5, touch events, scroll behavior, and the actual appearance of the device, and allows capturing directly usable images and videos.

Can I test a localhost address on LG G5?

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.

Do you need to buy a LG G5 to test your site?

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.

Which media query to use to target LG G5?

A media query on the exact width targets LG G5: @media only screen and (min-width: 360px). Combine it with the pixel density to precisely target this model and those sharing its format.
