Is there a way using Android layout to automatically distinguish between f/ex a Dell Streak with 800×480 resolution, and a Galaxy Tab or HTC Flyer with 1024×600 resolution? They all (presumably including the Flyer) report as -large (unlike the Xoom which reports as -xlarge). Is there a better layout tag than -large?
(Edited to clarify that -xlarge is no use in this case)
See the “Table 2” in Supporting Multiple Screens
and try to combine Size and Density qualifiers together.
Also useful application ScreenInfo
Еxample:
Nexus One (480*800, 240 dpi) – “layout-hdpi” (normal screen, high density)
Samsung Galaxy Tab(600*1024, 169 ppi/dpi) – “layout-large-mdpi” (large screen, medium density)
Dell Streak(480*800, 186 dpi) – ??? (normal/large? screen, medium/high? density)
