Targeting the iPhone 5s in CSS
Device-specific media queries are brittle — a new model with the same width will not match. Use them for genuine per-device fixes only, and prefer width buckets for layout.
/* Target iPhone 5s specifically */
@media only screen
and (device-width: 320px)
and (device-height: 568px)
and (-webkit-device-pixel-ratio: 2) {
/* … */
}
/* More useful in practice — the width bucket it falls into */
@media (min-width: 320px) { /* … */ }Safe area on the iPhone 5s
Home button, status bar only. Content placed inside the top 20 px or the bottom 0 px will sit under system UI unless you inset it.
/* iPhone 5s safe area — requires viewport-fit=cover */
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, viewport-fit=cover">
.app {
padding-top: env(safe-area-inset-top); /* 20px */
padding-bottom: env(safe-area-inset-bottom); /* 0px */
padding-left: env(safe-area-inset-left);
padding-right: env(safe-area-inset-right);

Questions about the iPhone 5s screen
What is the screen size of the iPhone 5s?
The iPhone 5s has a 4-inch display. In CSS the viewport measures 320 × 568 px in portrait, and the panel itself has 640 × 1136 physical pixels at 326 PPI.
What resolution should I design for on the iPhone 5s?
Design at 320 × 568 and export assets at 2×. That gives you 640 × 1136 px images, which is exactly what the panel renders. Designing directly at 640 × 1136 means every measurement is 2 times larger than the CSS values you will write.
What is the device pixel ratio of the iPhone 5s?
The iPhone 5s reports a device pixel ratio of 2. One CSS pixel therefore covers 4 device pixels. You can read it in JavaScript with window.devicePixelRatio.
What are the safe area insets on the iPhone 5s?
In portrait the safe area inset is 20 px at the top and 0 px at the bottom (Home button, status bar only). Use env(safe-area-inset-*) rather than hard-coding these — the values change per device and per orientation.
Which other devices have the same viewport as the iPhone 5s?
3 other devices share the 320 × 568 CSS viewport: iPhone SE (1st gen), iPhone 5c, iPhone 5. A layout that works on one works on all of them.
