No. That is the build number of software, nothing to do with hardware. My iPod 3G and iPhone 4 have the same Mobile/9A405 (same iOS 5.0.1).

It seems that iPhone 4S has fell prey to this same issue So this code will only tell you whether the connecting device is an iOS device with Retina Display or not, as of now there’s no discernible way of telling the difference between the devices in each category ie:

Pixel Density of 1: iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G & iPhone 3GS
Pixel Density of 2: iPhone 4 & iPhone 4S

That’s a good point, I passed through the cookie, mainly due to the fact that I build sites with mod_rewrite urls, so using GET vars never usually help as it messes up these URLs.

But you’re right of course, GET is much simpler, and I have used that method on a site before as well.

Another option is to back-call the page with POST as well through Ajax, but that’s probably just silly

You can do it passing the device pixel ratio as a get parameter of the current page by simply redirecting when the javascript is displayed. then you don’t need cookies enabled, but still javascript.

something like this :

location.replace(location.href + ‘?device_pixel=’+ window.devicePixelRatio);

this is the way i’ll do it

@evolutioneer on further investigation the 8A293 tag is merely indicative of an 4.0 OS GM build, and not an iPhone 4 device.
