iPhone 6 Plus resolution confusion: Xcode or Apple's website? for development

问题


Apple\'s website claims that the resolution is 1080p: 1920 x 1080

However, the launch screen required by Xcode (8.0 GM launched today) is 2208 x 1242.

Who\'s right?

\"Xcode\"


回答1:


The iPhone 6+ renders internally using @3x assets at a virtual resolution of 2208×1242 (with 736x414 points), then samples that down for display. The same as using a scaled resolution on a Retina MacBook — it lets them hit an integral multiple for pixel assets while still having e.g. 12 pt text look the same size on the screen.

So, yes, the launch screens need to be that size.

The maths:

The 6, the 5s, the 5, the 4s and the 4 are all 326 pixels per inch, and use @2x assets to stick to the approximately 160 points per inch of all previous devices.

The 6+ is 401 pixels per inch. So it'd hypothetically need roughly @2.46x assets. Instead Apple uses @3x assets and scales the complete output down to about 84% of its natural size.

In practice Apple has decided to go with more like 87%, turning the 1080 into 1242. No doubt that was to find something as close as possible to 84% that still produced integral sizes in both directions — 1242/1080 = 2208/1920 exactly, whereas if you'd turned the 1080 into, say, 1286, you'd somehow need to render 2286.22 pixels vertically to scale well.

The answer is that older apps run in 2208 x 1242 Zoomed Mode. But when an app is built for the new phones the resolutions available are: Super Retina HD 5.8 (iPhone X) 1125 x 2436 (458ppi), Retina HD 5.5 (iPhone 6, 7, 8 Plus) 1242 x 2208 and Retina HD 4.7 (iPhone 6) 750 x 1334. This is causing the confusion mentioned in the question. To build apps that use the full screen size of the new phones add LaunchImages in the sizes: 1125 x 2436, 1242 x 2208, 2208 x 1242 and 750 x 1334.

When running in Zoomed Mode, i.e. without the new LaunchImages or choosen in Setup on iPhone 6 Plus, the native scale is 2.88 and the screen is 320 x 568 points, which is the iPhone 5 native size:

Screen bounds: {{0, 0}, {414, 736}}, Screen resolution: <UIScreen: 0x7f97fad330b0; bounds = {{0, 0}, {414, 736}};
mode = <UIScreenMode: 0x7f97fae1ce00; size = 1242.000000 x 2208.000000>>, scale: 3.000000, nativeScale: 3.000000

Size for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6S with @2x scaling (Apple name: Retina HD 4.7), coordinate space: 375 x 667 points and 750 x 1334 pixels, 326 ppi, screen physical size is 2.3 x 4.1 in or 58 x 104 mm. When running in Zoomed Mode, i.e. without the new LaunchImages, the screen is 320 x 568 points, which is the iPhone 5 native size:

Screen bounds: {{0, 0}, {375, 667}}, Screen resolution: <UIScreen: 0x7fa01b5182d0; bounds = {{0, 0}, {375, 667}};
mode = <UIScreenMode: 0x7fa01b711760; size = 750.000000 x 1334.000000>>, scale: 2.000000, nativeScale: 2.000000

And iPhone 5 for comparison is 640 x 1136, iPhone 4 640 x 960.


Here is the code I used to check this out (note that nativeScale only runs on iOS 8):

UIScreen *mainScreen = [UIScreen mainScreen];
NSLog(@"Screen bounds: %@, Screen resolution: %@, scale: %f, nativeScale: %f",
          NSStringFromCGRect(mainScreen.bounds), mainScreen.coordinateSpace, mainScreen.scale, mainScreen.nativeScale);

Note: Upload LaunchImages otherwise the app will run in Zoomed Mode and not show the correct scaling, or screen sizes. In Zoomed Mode the nativeScale and scale will not be the same. On an actual device the scale can be 2.608 on the iPhone 6 Plus, even when it is not running in Zoomed Mode, but it will show scale of 3.0 when running on the simulator.

Real/physical iPhone 6 Plus resolution is 1920x1080 but in Xcode you make your interface for 2208x1242 resolution (736x414 points) and on device it is automatically scaled down to 1920x1080 pixels.

You should probably stop using launch images in iOS 8 and use a storyboard or nib/xib.

  • In Xcode 6, open the File menu and choose NewFile...iOSUser InterfaceLaunch Screen.

  • Then open the settings for your project by clicking on it.

  • In the General tab, in the section called App Icons and Launch Images, set the Launch Screen File to the files you just created (this will set UILaunchStoryboardName in info.plist).

Note that for the time being the simulator will only show a black screen, so you need to test on a real device.

On the physical device, iPhone 6 Plus's main screen's bounds is 2208x1242 and nativeBounds is 1920x1080. There is hardware scaling involved to resize to the physical display.

On the simulator, the iPhone 6 Plus's main screen's bounds and nativeBounds are both 2208x1242.

In other words... Videos, OpenGL, and other things based on CALayers that deal with pixels will deal with the real 1920x1080 frame buffer on device (or 2208x1242 on sim). Things dealing with points in UIKit will be deal with the 2208x1242 (x3) bounds and get scaled as appropriate on device.

The simulator does not have access to the same hardware that is doing the scaling on device and there's not really much of a benefit to simulating it in software as they'd produce different results than the hardware. Thus it makes sense to set the nativeBounds of a simulated device's main screen to the bounds of the physical device's main screen.

iOS 8 added API to UIScreen (nativeScale and nativeBounds) to let a developer determine the resolution of the CADisplay corresponding to the UIScreen.

For those like me who wonder how legacy apps are treated, I did a bit of testing and computation on the subject.

Thanks to @hannes-sverrisson hint, I started on the assumption that a legacy app is treated with a 320x568 view in iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus.

The test was made with a simple black background bg@2x.png with a white border. The background has a size of 640x1136 pixels, and it is black with an inner white border of 1 pixel.

Below are the screenshots provided by the simulator:

  • iPhone 5 simulator : http://i.stack.imgur.com/b2E5K.png
  • iPhone 6 simulator : http://i.stack.imgur.com/4Qz8N.png
  • iPhone 6 plus simulator : http://i.stack.imgur.com/hQisc.png

On the iPhone 6 screenshot, we can see a 1 pixel margin on top and bottom of the white border, and a 2 pixel margin on the iPhone 6 plus screenshot. This gives us a used space of 1242x2204 on iPhone 6 plus, instead of 1242x2208, and 750x1332 on the iPhone 6, instead of 750x1334.

We can assume that those dead pixels are meant to respect the iPhone 5 aspect ratio:

iPhone 5               640 / 1136 = 0.5634
iPhone 6 (used)        750 / 1332 = 0.5631
iPhone 6 (real)        750 / 1334 = 0.5622
iPhone 6 plus (used)  1242 / 2204 = 0.5635
iPhone 6 plus (real)  1242 / 2208 = 0.5625

Second, it is important to know that @2x resources will be scaled not only on iPhone 6 plus (which expects @3x assets), but also on iPhone 6. This is probably because not scaling the resources would have led to unexpected layouts, due to the enlargement of the view.

However, that scaling is not equivalent in width and height. I tried it with a 264x264 @2x resource. Given the results, I have to assume that the scaling is directly proportional to the pixels / points ratio.

Device         Width scale             Computed width   Screenshot width
iPhone 5        640 /  640 = 1.0                        264 px
iPhone 6        750 /  640 = 1.171875  309.375          309 px
iPhone 6 plus  1242 /  640 = 1.940625  512.325          512 px

Device         Height scale            Computed height  Screenshot height
iPhone 5       1136 / 1136 = 1.0                        264 px
iPhone 6       1332 / 1136 = 1.172535  309.549          310 px
iPhone 6 plus  2204 / 1136 = 1.940141  512.197          512 px

It's important to note the iPhone 6 scaling is not the same in width and height (309x310). This tends to confirm the above theory that scaling is not proportional in width and height, but uses the pixels / points ratio.

I hope this helps.

Check out this infographic: http://www.paintcodeapp.com/news/iphone-6-screens-demystified

It explains the differences between old iPhones, iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. You can see comparison of screen sizes in points, rendered pixels and physical pixels. You will also find answer to your question there:

iPhone 6 Plus - with Retina display HD. Scaling factor is 3 and the image is afterwards downscaled from rendered 2208 × 1242 pixels to 1920 × 1080 pixels.

The downscaling ratio is 1920 / 2208 = 1080 / 1242 = 20 / 23. That means every 23 pixels from the original render have to be mapped to 20 physical pixels. In other words the image is scaled down to approximately 87% of its original size.

Update:

There is an updated version of infographic mentioned above. It contains more detailed info about screen resolution differences and it covers all iPhone models so far, including 4 inch devices.

Even if I don't generally like the tone of John Gruber's Daring Fireball blog, his Larger iPhone Display Conjecture is well worth the read.

He guessed but got exactly right both the resolution in points and in pixels for both models, except that he did not (me neither) expect Apple to build a smaller resolution physical display and scale down (details are in @Tommy's answer).

The gist of it all is that one should stop thinking in terms of pixels and start thinking in terms of points (this has been the case for quite some time, it's not a recent invention) and resulting physical size of UI elements. In short, both new iPhone models improve in this regard as physically most elements remain the same size, you can just fit more of them on the screen (for each bigger screen you can fit more).

I'm just slightly disappointed they haven't kept mapping of internal resolution to actual screen resolution 1:1 for the bigger model.
