Android Tablets resolution and density support

Hello Everyone.........

I am working on android tablets that supports 1280x800 and 1024x600 resolution. What is the best approach for UI design to use dip or px for layout designing. My problem is I want to support all Android Tablets in market with both of these resolutions but there LCD density may vary between 160 to 240 dpi.

  • What to do in this situation?

  • Android tablets have 240 dpi density or 160 dpi density or may have both?

  • Please tell which tablets devices have which density support?

  • Is it possible to workon both densities with same screen resolution through same xml layout?

Which screen density support is provided by Android?

48x48 (1.0x baseline) for medium-density (mdpi) 72x72 (1.5x) for high-density (hdpi) 96x96 (2.0x) for extra-high-density (xhdpi) 144x144 (3.0x) for extra-extra-high-density (xxhdpi)

Does pixel density affect resolution?

The larger the resolution, the more pixel density, the better graphics card you'll need to run your game. Keep this in mind when shopping for a new monitor or new graphics card. Technology is constantly pushing boundaries and, lately, we have seen releases of monitors with a 4K or a 3840 × 2160 (UHD) resolution.

What is a good resolution for a tablet?

If you're looking for a tablet to watch movies on then you'll want to look for a display that offers High Definition. This is because most movies, at a minimum, are displayed in HD at 1080p. This makes a tablet with a resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 perfect for movie lovers.

What is acceptable pixel density?

If you only open 1 window at a time, 75 PPI is enough. Multitasking requires a higher number of PPI. The more pixels your monitor has, the larger your screen space is. If you work with multiple programs at the same time, we recommend a monitor with 95 to 110 PPI.

yes make sure, we make a single layout thate work for all screen or tabs in any density. Android provide multiple support screen features.

<supports-screens android:resizeable="true"
        android:largeScreens="true" android:normalScreens="true"
        android:anyDensity="true"></supports-screens>

  2. mdpi folder
