The Smallest width is configured by manufacturer, so it may be varied. For instance, Nexus 7 and Kindle Fire HD both have 1280x800 screen resolution, but the smallest width of N7 is 600dp, while Kindle Fire HD is 533dp.

Here is a way to calculate this:

If 480x800 is mdpi(160) for 5 inch device, the screen dpi(screenDPI) of the device with resolution 1080X1920 is 160*(1080/480)=360 (NOTE: manufacturer might change this number). Then the smallestWidth = 1080/(screenDPI/160).

Use Configuration to find out all the information of the device.

It depends on the screen size because a 7' screen with FHD will not have the same dpi as a 17' screen with FHD. to know DPI I use this calculator :

and for the folders please try the actual google documentation it is pretty complete:

hope it helps!
