Frequently Asked Questions

What is a standard PPI for tablets?

Tablets typically range between 240 and 330 PPI. Apple's standard iPad Retina density is 264 PPI (e.g. iPad Pro 13″ and iPad Air 11″), while compact tablets like the iPad mini 7 hit 326 PPI.

Why is tablet PPI lower than phone PPI?

Tablets are viewed from arm's length (15–18 inches) rather than close up like phones (10–12 inches). Because the viewing distance is greater, ~264 PPI achieves the exact same visual sharpness as ~460 PPI on a smartphone.

Which tablet has the highest pixel density?

The iPad mini 7 features 326 PPI on its 8.3-inch screen. Among larger tablets, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 (11″) features 274 PPI, and the Surface Pro 11 features 267 PPI.
