Answer 1

In the rare case where you want to further customize your UI, For example for 7” vs. 10” tablets, you can also define smallest widths:

res/layout/main_activity.xml           # For phones
res/layout-sw600dp/main_activity.xml   # For 7” tablets
res/layout-sw720dp/main_activity.xml   # For 10” tablets

and just check out this for 7” vs. 10” tablets:--

you can also specify your layout folder like this

1. layout-1280x800
2. layout-port-1280x800

As per new approach discussed here, New Tools For Managing Screen Sizes
we can specify like this

1. layout For phones
2. layout-sw600dp # For 7” tablets
3. layout-sw720dp # For 10” tablets

Answer 4

but if you are building for amazon devices

• kindle fire 7" uses layout-large-mdpi
• kindle fire 7" HD uses layout-large-hdpi

along with other android devices 7" which use layout-sw600dp

Answer 5

It's because your using a "cheap" (inexpensive) 7-inch tablet 480x800, so it will use sw360 up to 430dp.
