Screen Sizes in Android 1.6

One of the key upgrades is support for multiple screen sizes.

However, the key determinant of "screensize" in Android is physical size. As such, displays have both pixel resolution and "screen density" attributes.

Supported screen sizes are currently described in the docs as follows:
 Low density (120), ldpiMedium density (160), mdpiHigh density (240), hdpi
Small screen
  • QVGA (240x320), 2.6"-3.0" diagonal
  
Normalscreen
  • WQVGA (240x400), 3.2"-3.5" diagonal
  • FWQVGA (240x432),3.5"-3.8" diagonal
  • HVGA (320x480), 3.0"-3.5" diagonal
  • WVGA (480x800), 3.3"-4.0" diagonal
  • FWVGA (480x854),3.5"-4.0" diagonal
Large screen 
  • WVGA (480x800), 4.8"-5.5" diagonal
