Viewport tier
This record sits in the modern phone viewport range. Start breakpoint reviews around 393px wide and confirm how cards, nav, modals, and sticky UI behave just above and below that width.
Device screen reference
Use this reference for iPhone 15 / 15 Pro CSS viewport width, physical resolution, DPR, diagonal size, PPI, and responsive testing notes.
Testing guidance
Use the 393 by 852 CSS viewport as a starting point for responsive checks, not as a permanent guarantee. Browser chrome, zoom, split view, orientation, and operating-system scaling can all change the live page area.
The physical resolution, DPR, diagonal size, and PPI help explain screenshot quality and display sharpness. They are especially useful when a design looks visually different even though the CSS breakpoint appears to be correct.
Before filing a layout bug, compare this record with the live screen checker, review related models in the device database, and use screen comparisons when you need to explain visual differences to a team.
Practical interpretation
Use this page as more than a spec sheet. The combination of viewport width, viewport height, DPR, resolution, diagonal size, and aspect ratio tells you what kind of layout pressure iPhone 15 / 15 Pro creates and which visual bugs are most likely to surface first.
This record sits in the modern phone viewport range. Start breakpoint reviews around 393px wide and confirm how cards, nav, modals, and sticky UI behave just above and below that width.
iPhone 15 / 15 Pro is a very high-density display with DPR 3 and 460 PPI. Keep that in QA notes when sharpness, canvas exports, icon rendering, or screenshot scaling look different from expected CSS dimensions.
The 19.5:9 ratio makes this a tall handheld aspect ratio. That changes above-the-fold space, media cropping, long-form layouts, and how much vertical room sticky controls consume.

Planning notes
A single device record is most valuable when it tells you where to start, what to verify next, and which neighboring references should be pulled into the same QA run.
At 393px wide, iPhone 15 / 15 Pro sits in the modern phone viewport band. Review breakpoints from 353px to 433px so you can catch layout stress just before and just after the exact reference width instead of testing only one perfect number.
The 852px height makes this a balanced first-screen viewport. That is useful for above-the-fold messaging, login flows, dashboards, sticky UI, and long forms where one extra toolbar or consent banner can push the main action below the first screen.
Resolution 1179 x 2556, DPR 3, and 460 PPI explain why screenshots from iPhone 15 / 15 Pro can look sharper than another device with a similar CSS viewport. In practical terms, each CSS pixel here maps to about 9.0 physical pixels.
Rotate this reference to landscape when nav bars, video players, tables, or split-pane layouts need more horizontal room than the portrait viewport allows. Pair this page with the viewport checker, the DPR checker, and the comparison library when you need both live browser values and nearby references in the same report.
QA checklist
Check whether the hero, primary CTA, or key dashboard widgets remain visible without being pushed below the fold at 852px tall.
Headers, cookie banners, chat launchers, and sticky bottom actions can consume a lot of space on this viewport. Test both loaded and scrolled states.
Use the live screen checker before filing a bug so browser chrome, zoom, OS scaling, orientation, and accessibility settings are captured alongside this reference.

Responsive testing notes
Use 393 × 852 as a practical starting point for testing iPhone 15 / 15 Pro layouts, then confirm the live viewport in the browser you are targeting.
Start breakpoint checks around 393px, then resize slightly above and below that value.
A DPR of 3 affects image sharpness, canvas rendering, and screenshot interpretation.
Use the live checker because browser chrome, orientation, zoom, and OS scaling can change the usable area.
Reporting workflow
A device page is most useful when it helps a team explain why a layout failed, not just what numbers the hardware reports. Use this record to turn screenshots, bug reports, and design reviews into something another person can reproduce quickly.
Start with the CSS viewport because that is usually the first number a frontend team needs. For iPhone 15 / 15 Pro, that means noting 393px by 852px before you debate whether the hardware itself is the problem. When the layout pressure is horizontal, width is usually the deciding signal. When the issue is about above-the-fold space, sticky controls, or keyboard overlap, height becomes just as important.
Add physical resolution, DPR, and PPI when the visual result feels different from the CSS measurements. A device like iPhone 15 / 15 Pro can look sharper, denser, or more crowded than another record with a similar viewport because the physical pixel grid and scaling behavior are doing extra work behind the scenes. That extra context is what stops screenshot discussions from turning into guesswork.
Use the family and comparison links when you need to justify why this model belongs in a test matrix. One isolated record can answer "what does this device report," but it becomes much more persuasive when you can also show where it sits against nearby references in the same family or against another device that represents a larger or smaller breakpoint boundary.
Keep physical diagonal size in the note, but do not treat it as the same thing as usable layout room. A larger screen can still produce a tighter browser experience than a physically smaller screen if scaling, browser chrome, or the underlying viewport is more restrictive. This is one of the most common reasons design reviews and device assumptions drift apart.
Before closing a QA report, pair this reference with the live screen checker and capture the actual browser state you are testing. That final step connects the stable reference data on this page with the messy real-world variables that change from session to session, including zoom, browser UI, orientation, accessibility settings, and split-view behavior.
Source and update note
This page is built from the ScreenMetricLab device viewport dataset. Values are normalized for practical QA and design use, but they should be verified on real devices or browser emulators before publishing critical layouts.
Record source: Physical specs come from manufacturer-style display references; CSS viewport is a practical browser reference that should be verified on the target device/browser.
Verification pending: this record does not yet have all four required fields: a direct source URL, checked date, method or test environment, and genuine reviewer. The confidence label is not a substitute for those fields.
Device references should be reviewed regularly as browsers, OS scaling, and hardware options change.
Pair this page with the viewport checker, DPR checker, and screen resolution checker for better QA notes.
The reference CSS viewport for iPhone 15 / 15 Pro is 393 × 852. Live browser values can still change because of zoom, browser UI, OS display scaling, orientation, and responsive mode.
No. The physical resolution for this device is 1179 × 2556, while the CSS viewport is the layout area that websites normally use for responsive breakpoints.
Use the CSS viewport width first when checking breakpoints and layout bugs. Include DPR and physical resolution as extra context in QA reports.
Browser chrome, zoom, operating-system scaling, accessibility settings, split view, and orientation can all change the viewport reported by JavaScript.
