Hello Everyone………
I am working on android tablets that supports 1280×800 and 1024×600 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?
For layout designing dip is definitely the best approach because you have density independence :

As far as I know, since dpi is dots per inch if you have one resolution you should only have one density.
For calculating easily density see :
