Get the screen size in Android

Android screen size is different for different phone models.

There are some screen resolutions already defined in Android.

They are:

• QVGA (240×320, low density, small screen)
• WQVGA (240×400, low density, normal screen)
• FWQVGA (240×432, low density, normal screen)
• HVGA (320×480, medium density, normal screen)
• WVGA800 (480×800, high density, normal screen)
• WVGA854 (480×854 high density, normal screen)

Now let’s see how to get the screen size,

01 @Override
02 public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
03 super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
04 setContentView(R.layout.main);
05 int ht;
06 int wt;
07 DisplayMetrics displaymetrics = new DisplayMetrics();
08 getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(displaymetrics);
09 ht = displaymetrics.heightPixels;
10 wt = displaymetrics.widthPixels;
11 }

Here, ht will return the height & wt will return the width.
