How to Design for Different Mobile Phone Viewports?

Four multiracial people using mobile phone outdoors

As a responsive web designer, you can design your website to adjust to different screen sizes and mobile viewport widths by using CSS media queries. A media query allows you to apply different styles based on the characteristics of the device being used to view the website, such as its screen size and orientation.

Here’s a simple example of a media query to target devices with a screen width of 320px or less:

@media (max-width: 320px) {
/* Add your styles here */
}

You can use media queries to create specific styles for each of the common screen sizes, ensuring that your website is optimized for different devices. You can also use CSS grid and flexbox to create flexible and responsive layouts that adjust to different screen sizes.

Additionally, it’s important to consider other factors such as touch support and accessibility and to test your designs on a variety of different devices to ensure that they look and work as intended.

The widths of mobile phone viewports vary widely based on the specific device and screen size. Here are some common mobile phone screen sizes and their corresponding viewport widths:

  • iPhone 5/SE: 320px
  • iPhone 6/7/8: 375px
  • iPhone 6 Plus/7 Plus/8 Plus: 414px
  • iPhone X/XS/11 Pro: 375px
  • iPhone XR/11: 414px
  • iPhone 12 Mini: 390px
  • iPhone 12/12 Pro: 390px
  • iPhone 12 Pro Max: 428px

Keep in mind that these are just rough estimates, and actual device dimensions can vary slightly. Additionally, users can also zoom in or out on their screens, which would affect the viewport width.
