The linked article states that CSS breakpoints should group "similar" screen sizes and thus be at:

  • 600px "narrow"
  • 900px "medium"
  • 1200px "wide"
  • (1800px) "huge"

By choosing these breakpoints, most device screens will be somewhere between two breakpoints, and not at the very edge of them.

The ranges could be called:

  • narrow (< narrow)
  • medium (narrow - medium)
  • normal (medium - wide)
  • wide (wide - huge)
  • huge (> huge)
