This is understandable as a numver of major statistics tools (such as Google Analytics) don’t offer any data about the browser viewport. The focus in the web design industry is still on the screen size of the visitor.

Of the top ten screen resolutions only 14.71% had more than 800 horizontal rows.

Most common viewport size (the mode) for is 1280×664.

1269×718 is the average visitor’s viewport size.

15.6 is gradually losing its popularity as mobility.

65% of page views had a viewport height of less than 800 pixels 15.6 is the most common size for laptop screens but the average size is somewhat lower than that.

With this in mind, the statistics become even more startling. The general understanding would be that visitors to web tech sites would have higher screen resolutions than normal. You are by no means a normal, average person. The normal visitor to this website is someone who works with the web, or perhaps communication. Let’s walk through some stats using visits to this blog as an example.

The iPad, iPhone, and every single Android device currently in existence also fail to knock up a potential viewport height of over 800 pixels. In addition to laptops we have tablets and smartphones. If we return to our price comparison site and include the laptops that have a vertical resolution of 900 and below, we find that 2346 of 2673 of new laptops have a likely browser viewport of less than 800 rows. Most browsers are going to eat up at least 100 pixels of your vertical resolution (number of horizontal rows), and quite easily more (it only takes one Google Toolbar to eat up another 30 rows). The browser, it’s chrome, it’s toolbars, your add-ons and bookmarks – all eat away at the number of horizontal rows that are left for your website to fill.

Maximised though, does not mean that you have the full screensize available to you and your web site design. This is in part due to the number of laptop users that run their browser maximised to fill the screen. Width-wise screen-size statistics and viewport statistics correspond pretty well. In December 2010 at the time of writing, there were 2673 laptops listed on Swedish price comparison website Prisjakt, of which 1828 of them had a vertical resolution of less than 801 rows. Laptops and their screen sizes with relatively few number of horizontal rows aren’t going away any time soon. The amount of new websites appearing that are effectively broken when viewed on a laptop is alarming. Tablets, Android devices/iPhones, iPads – the number of horizontal rows (in landscape mode) is really getting squeezed. A few years ago I wrote about how screen sizes were getting getting smaller, and this is proving to be the case.
