iPad 11″ (A16) / 10th gen viewport size

820 × 1180CSS px · 2× DPR · 1640×2360 physical

The iPad 11″ (A16) / 10th gen gives web pages a 820 × 1180 CSS pixel viewport in portrait. That’s the width your layout and media queries actually see, not the 1640 × 2360 physical pixels of the screen: with a device pixel ratio of 2, every CSS pixel is 2 × 2 real pixels.

Paste your address (or localhost:3000). doesitfit shows it at exactly 820 × 1180, with Safari (iPadOS)’s bars if you want them, and tells you if anything spills.

What a web page actually sees

The full viewport is 820 × 1180, but the browser’s own bars take some of it. In Safari (iPadOS) a page gets about 820 × 1106 on first load (24px status bar and a 50px Safari toolbar (estimate)). That’s your real “above the fold”.

Setting	Width	Height
Full viewport (portrait)	820px	1180px
Visible on first load (Safari (iPadOS))	820px	1106px
Landscape (full)	1180px	820px

What it means for your CSS

Content width

With 16px of padding on each side your text column is 788px; with 24px it’s 772px. Text closer than 8px to the edge looks cramped (more).

Sharp images

A full-width image needs about 1640px of real pixels (820 × 2).

<img src="hero-1640.jpg"
  srcset="hero-800.jpg 800w, hero-1640.jpg 1640w"
  sizes="100vw" alt="…">

Styles for this width

Content-first breakpoints beat device lists, but if something breaks at this width:

@media (max-width: 820px) {
  /* screens 820px wide and narrower */
}
