Targeting the MacBook Pro 16″ (2019) 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.

Questions about the MacBook Pro 16″ (2019) screen
What is the screen size of the MacBook Pro 16″ (2019)?
The MacBook Pro 16″ (2019) has a 16-inch display. In CSS the viewport measures 1792 × 1120 px in portrait, and the panel itself has 3072 × 1920 physical pixels at 226 PPI.
What resolution should I design for on the MacBook Pro 16″ (2019)?
Design at 1792 × 1120 and export assets at 2×. That gives you 3072 × 1920 px images, which is exactly what the panel renders. Designing directly at 3072 × 1920 means every measurement is 2 times larger than the CSS values you will write.
What is the device pixel ratio of the MacBook Pro 16″ (2019)?
The MacBook Pro 16″ (2019) reports a device pixel ratio of 2. One CSS pixel therefore covers 4 device pixels. You can read it in JavaScript with window.devicePixelRatio.
Why does 1792 × 2 not equal 3072?
Because MacBook Pro 16″ (2019) ships in a scaled display mode. macOS composites the desktop at 3584 × 2240 — twice the 1792 × 1120 logical size — and resamples that frame down to the 3072 × 1920 panel. It is not the panel's native mode; it is the one Apple selects by default because 1792 px of workspace is the more useful number. Design against 1792 × 1120 and export at 2×.
