A layout group that returns later
The same reference viewport appears again on iPhone 16e, so this older regression target remains relevant to a newer model instead of becoming obsolete.
iPhone 14: 6.1″, 1170 × 2532, 460 PPI, 390 × 844 CSS viewport at DPR 3. It represents an earlier compact all-screen iPhone layout group and shares its reference viewport with the newer iPhone 16e, preserving one useful regression target across separated generations.
The same reference viewport appears again on iPhone 16e, so this older regression target remains relevant to a newer model instead of becoming obsolete.
Its direct successor belongs to a neighboring layout group, making the pair useful for testing a real transition between standard-iPhone references.
It applies more layout pressure than later standard-width references, while iPhone SE remains the stronger test for short pages and vertically crowded flows.
The specifications below come from the device records; the notes explain why each comparison is useful.
| Device configuration | Matched to | Screen | Panel | Viewport / workspace | PPI |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| iPhone 14 Current page | iPhone 14 | 6.1″ | 1170 × 2532 | 390 × 844 | 460 |
| iPhone 15 The direct successor introduces the neighboring standard-iPhone layout group, making this the useful generational boundary comparison. | iPhone 14 | 6.1″ | 1179 × 2556 | 393 × 852 | 460 |
| iPhone 16e The newer compact model returns to the same primary reference, showing where existing viewport automation can be reused. | iPhone 14 | 6.1″ | 1170 × 2532 | 390 × 844 | 460 |
/* iPhone 14 — portrait reference, not a breakpoint */
viewport: 390 × 844 CSS px

/* Test immediately below and above your layout breakpoints. */Use the 390 × 844 CSS px at DPR 3 as a real QA target, then pair it with nearby widths for regression testing.
Values marked official come from manufacturer specifications; calculated values are derived from them; reference values are developer layout references and can vary with browser, zoom and operating-system settings.
