Viewport Size (CSS Resolution)
The CSS viewport defines how media queries, layout breakpoints, and responsive components behave.
For Apple iPhone 16, the CSS viewport measures:

- Height: 852 px
ℹ️ The visible height can vary slightly depending on the browser UI (Safari, Chrome, etc.).
Some analytics platforms only display the physical screen resolution (see below) instead of the CSS viewport size, so keep that in mind when interpreting results.
