Why test your site on Samsung Galaxy A17?
Very elongated screen
With a ratio of 19.5:9, Samsung Galaxy A17 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 Galaxy A17 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 Galaxy A17 rarely matches the round breakpoints of frameworks. It is precisely between these values that layouts break.
CSS viewport resolution of Samsung Galaxy A17
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
892 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.

Mobile FIRST includes Samsung Galaxy A17: your page displays in a viewport of 412 x 892 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.
- 01 Install the extension — Add Mobile FIRST to Chrome, Firefox, or Edge. Installation is free and requires no account.
- 02 Open the page to test — Go to the URL to check, including a local address like localhost:3000.
- 03 Choose Samsung Galaxy A17 — Select Samsung Galaxy A17 from the list of devices. The viewport switches to 412 x 892 pixels, and the mobile User-Agent is applied.
- 04 Check rendering — Scroll, change orientation, test your forms, then capture an image or video to share.
Test your site on Samsung Galaxy A17 directly in your browser, without buying the device.
- Samsung Galaxy A17 available in the device list
- Real viewport, User-Agent, and touch events
- Also works on localhost and in pre-production
- Exportable screenshots and videos
