Why test your site on Samsung A50?

Very elongated screen

With a ratio of 19.5:9, Samsung A50 displays a lot of height for little width. Sections designed in landscape become endless columns, and full-screen visuals are poorly cropped.

2.625x density

With a density of 2.625x, Samsung A50 provides a useful benchmark to ensure your images remain sharp without serving unnecessarily large files.

Actual media queries

The 412 x 892 pixels viewport of Samsung A50 rarely matches the round breakpoints of frameworks. It is precisely between these values that layouts break.

CSS viewport resolution of Samsung A50

This resolution is what your stylesheet actually manipulates. It determines the applied breakpoint, the number of displayed columns, and the size of your images.

  • 412 pixels in width
  • 892 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 Samsung A50

2.625

The device pixel ratio of Samsung A50 is 2.625.

Each CSS pixel is thus rendered by 2.625 physical pixels, making any image provided in simple resolution immediately visible.

Manufacturer resolution of Samsung A50

This is the number of physical pixels on the screen, as announced by the manufacturer. Useful for preparing your image exports, useless for your media queries.

  • 1080 pixels in width
  • 2340 pixels in height
  • 19.5:9 Screen ratio

403 pixels per inch (ppi) · 6.4 inches diagonal, or 16.3 cm

Media queries and code snippets for Samsung A50

These snippets are generated from the exact characteristics of Samsung A50. Copy them directly into your stylesheet or configuration.

CSS media query

Targets screens whose width matches that of Samsung A50 and models of the same format.

@media only screen and (min-width: 412px) and (max-width: 891px) {
  /* Samsung A50 */
}

Density media query

Serves high-resolution images to screens of at least 2.625x.

@media only screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2.625),
       only screen and (min-resolution: 252dpi) {
  /* High-density images and icons */
}

Tailwind configuration

Adds a named breakpoint at the exact width of Samsung A50.

// tailwind.config.js
module.exports = {
  theme: {
    screens: {
      'samsung-a50': '412px'
    }
  }
}

JavaScript detection

Detects format and density client-side.

const isDeviceWidth = window.matchMedia('(min-width: 412px)').matches;
const isHighDensity = window.devicePixelRatio >= 2.625;

Meta viewport tag

Essential for Samsung A50 to use its CSS viewport and not a simulated width of 980 pixels.

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

Mobile FIRST does not yet include Samsung A50, 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 Samsung A50 Select Samsung A50 from the list of devices. The viewport switches to 412 x 892 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 Samsung A50

These 5 devices share exactly the viewport of 412 x 892 pixels and the 2.625x density of Samsung A50. Their CSS rendering is therefore exactly the same: what you validate on one is valid on all others.

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 Samsung A50 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 Samsung A50?

A media query on the exact width targets Samsung A50: @media only screen and (min-width: 412px). Combine it with the pixel density to precisely target this model and those sharing its format.
