I'm running into a chaos with responsive design targeting many devices. The
main issue is with different resolutions for smart phone.

A year ago below sizes works fine.

     • 320 px Mobile portrait
     • 480 px Mobile landscape
     • 600 px Small tablet
     • 768 px Tablet portrait
     • 1024 px Tablet landscape/Netbook
     • 1280 px & greater — Desktop

But now we have smart phones with these sizes:

     • 480 px Mobile portrait (goodbye 320px!)
     • 720 px Mobile  landscape (Samsung Galaxy S2 for example)
     • 780 px Mobile  landscape (Samsung Galaxy S3 I think)
     • 800 px Mobile landscape (quite many phones are with this size)

My media queries for tablets and phones are:

  @media only screen and (max-width:800px)
  @media only screen and (max-width:720px)
  @media only screen and (max-width:600px)
  @media only screen and (max-width:480px)

If your site requires more than a couple of media queries, there could be a benefit in re-thinking the layout. In may cases, a single structural query for smartphones is all that's really necessary. If you use a viewport meta tag in this way:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">

Then this might be all you need:
@media only screen and (min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 700px)

It would help if you posted a link to your page as media queries are not strictly theoretical ;-)
