Responsive website showing large screen view on high pixel density mobile devices


Using media query I created different views for different pixel count screens. But now on small screens with high pixel count (like iPhone5, S3, S4) desktop view is shown.

How can I show small screen view i. e. 520px view on these HD screen mobiles?

Some meta tag or whatever html that can help is welcomed.

  • <header>
     <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
        <meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=no">
    </header>
    

    css

    /* Smartphones (portrait and landscape) ----------- */
    @media only screen
