A 1440x900 iPhone visited my site...

[wheezy]

Was digging around in Google Analytics today on my site and noticed I had a 1440x900 Screen Res iPhone show up on my site.

Also had a 0x0 iPad visit, not sure what that means either. If the ratio stayed true, a 1440 width iPhone should be 1440x960. Anyways, not sure what it all means, just found it interesting.

iPhone Simulator perhaps?

iPhone Simulator perhaps?

Or someone changing the User Agent setting in Safari on a Mac.

That's my best guess as well, I don't have one to know exactly what it would report. Maybe an iPhone App Developer could chime and let us know? Although, why visit my site in an emulator. I get okay traffic, but that just seems odd to me.

I did that myself, set it to iPad, but Analytics still shows a 1920x1200 Safari/Macintosh combo.

I'm wanting to say this was it. I've often forgotten to change Safari's user agent back to the default after trying something in iPhone mode on it.

fixed that for you.

I did that earlier today, switched the client to iPad in Dev Tools, and loaded the site. It's not showing up that way in my analytics - it still shows Safari on Mac. That's my impression as well, but I haven't been able to duplicate it yet.

0x0 iPad must be the new iPad shuffle.

There are quite a few ways to fake that information so it is just someone faking it to screw with you. I bet it MacRumors posted theorists they would have a long list of funny looking info.

It'll be a spoofed browser agent. I often change mine to iPhone or iPad to get sites with flash to load up the non-flash version instead (as I don't have flash installed it's kind of necessary).

I bet google analytics recognises you from a cookie or by IP and doesn't bother updating the browser details.

Nice site but doesn't it hurt your eyes a bit with the black background? After looking through it, and coming back here my eyes take a while to adjust. Is it just me? Not knocking your site in any way.

shouldn't that be 960x1440?

Yeah, it bugs me too. Haven't updated that one in a while. The site that got the visit was my portfolio site - http://joeljenkins.me

What aspect ratio would such a screen be?
