Execute the following code:

float scale = getApplicationContext().getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density;

and check the value of scale:

  • 0.75 means low density
  • 1.0 means standard (medium) density
  • 1.5 means high (large) density
  • 2.0 means extra high density
  • 3.0 means extra extra high density
  • 4.0 means extra extra extra high density

See the documentation for more info.
