DP/PX Converter
Calculate pixels (and other units) in DPs
This tool helps you convert pixels to and from DPs (density independent pixels).
-
Enter a value and unit to calculate the dimensions for the various DPI bins (ldpi, mdpi, hdpi, xhdpi, xxhdpi and xxxhdpi).
- Enter either a DP (density independent pixel) value or a PX (pixel) value below. If you use pixels, you can set the screen density that it currently displays on.
| at | compensating for user's font size at |
The values are calculated based on:
| ldpi | 120 dpi |
| mdpi | 160 dpi |
| tvdpi | 213 dpi |
| hdpi | 240 dpi |
| xhdpi | 320 dpi |
| xxhdpi | 480 dpi |
| xxxhdpi | 640 dpi |
Take special note of the nodpi bin; specifying resources using this qualifier specifically instructs the system to not scale resources, regardless of the current screen's density. The DP/PX converter above behaves slightly different when selecting this bin, as it treats the specified pixel dimension as DP.
