Popular Screen Sizes – Q3 2023

If your website doesn’t properly display elements on different screen sizes using responsive design techniques you will end up making your viewer “pinch and zoom” or scroll off the screen to see your content.

While it might not seem like much, non-responsive elements become “friction points” that interrupt the user experience making them think “How do I get the info I want? Do I zoom out? Do I scroll to the right? Yuck! Other websites don’t make me do this…”

Friction points cause people to become annoyed with your website. Reducing friction points will improve your user experience, engagement and increase your bottom line.

Listed below are the top screen sizes in use from Sept. 1, 2022 – Sept. 1, 2023, in the United States of America as reported by StatCounter.

Knowing this information is critical if you are designing and testing a website for modern responsive design behavior.

Market Street tests all web design projects against screen sizes with 5% or greater market share in North America at the time of development with our display simulator. We adjust our designs so that our websites work on all three device segments listed below.
