How to determine device screen size category (small, normal, large, xlarge) using code?

Is there any way to determine the category of screen size of the current device, such as small, normal, large, xlarge?

Not the density, but the screen size.

Solution

  • You can use the Configuration.screenLayout bitmask.

    Example:

    if ((getResources().getConfiguration().screenLayout & 
    Configuration.SCREENLAYOUT_SIZE_MASK) == 
        Configuration.SCREENLAYOUT_SIZE_LARGE) {
    // on a large screen device ...

}
