Ignore my last post. Garbage. I had overlooked a rather obvious fact
of screen manufacturing: each method will have slight variance in terms
of absolute PPI, resulting in variance not only in physical pixelDensity
differences but in how accurately the OS will bother to account for them

Thanks, Brian. With your stats we now have our first anomaly, between
the two platforms:
The iOS math checks out in terms of the reported logical metrics
matching the physical pixels per the pixel density.
But when we compare the iPhone 5.5" screen with the LG Stylo 5.5"
screen, LiveCode is

On Richards talk yesterday I brought this up and I am moving it to the list.
Say you have 3 Android devices:
1) Phone sized.
2) Note sized.
3) Tablet sized.
It is entirely possible that these 3 devices have the same(or close) number
x/y of pixels.
How can I determine the physical size of mobile de
