Targeting the Kindle Scribe 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 Kindle Scribe specifically */
@media only screen
and (device-width: 1860px)
and (device-height: 2480px)
and (-webkit-device-pixel-ratio: 1) {
/* … */
}
/* More useful in practice — the width bucket it falls into */
@media (min-width: 1860px) { /* … */ }Compare with other Handhelds & E-Readers models

Questions about the Kindle Scribe screen
What is the screen size of the Kindle Scribe?
The Kindle Scribe has a 10.2-inch display. In CSS the viewport measures 1860 × 2480 px in portrait, and the panel itself has 1860 × 2480 physical pixels at 300 PPI.
What resolution should I design for on the Kindle Scribe?
Design at 1860 × 2480 and export assets at 1×. That gives you 1860 × 2480 px images, which is exactly what the panel renders. Designing directly at 1860 × 2480 means every measurement is 1 times larger than the CSS values you will write.
What is the device pixel ratio of the Kindle Scribe?
The Kindle Scribe reports a device pixel ratio of 1. One CSS pixel therefore covers one device pixel. You can read it in JavaScript with window.devicePixelRatio.
Which other devices have the same viewport as the Kindle Scribe?
1 other device shares the 1860 × 2480 CSS viewport: Boox Note Air 4C. A layout that works on one works on all of them.
