How this is calculated

This tool compares the screen rectangle using display size and resolution ratio. Rounded corners, camera cutouts, and notches are simplified. The phone body outline is derived from manufacturer body dimensions — the screen is shown centered within the body, which is accurate for most modern flagships. Some budget and older phones (such as certain Pixel a-series and Galaxy A-series models) have a slightly larger chin than forehead, so the screen position may be a few pixels off from reality.
