Media Queries for Standard Devices still up to date on this Site?

[rodolpheb]

Hi, I’m wondering if this page : https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/media-queries-for-standard-devices/ is still up to date.

Thanks.

It doesn’t take iPhone 5 landscape into consideration, so no, it could use some updating.

However I’m a big fan of not using standard breakpoints (based on standard devices / resolutions), but using breakpoints based on where your design breaks.

Hi Senff,
thanks for your answer which reminds me of this article: http://openweb.eu.org/articles/defining-breakpoints

Yeah…. it’s not *wrong* but I wouldn’t write media queries like that anymore. Mostly just change browser window until it “gets weird” and put a media query there to fix it.

Thanx Chris, I totally agree.
