  Smartphone and tablets detection

  Oct 10, 2012 10:24 PM|LINK

  Hi,
  
  Currenlty I uses userAgent and Request.Browser.IsMobileDevice to check whether client browser mobile device or not.

  I am calling 2 methods one which checks userAgent for "iPhone;", "ipad;" and so on. Another method which checks Header for "x-wap-profile" and "profile". If I am not misteken then todays mobile devices does not have "x-wap-profile"?

  My query here is, I am doing in right way or is there any better way of doing. I know 51Degrees.Mobi provide free facility however I found it very cumbersome to implement.

  If 51Degrees is best way of doing then can someone help me to integrate with 51Degree step by step.

  Much appreciate help

  Thanks

  Pratik

  Hi,

  I blogged the same here - http://roopeshreddy.wordpress.com/2012/06/24/detect-requesting-device-type-and-redirect-in-asp-net/

  Moreover, you can also do that using CSS Media Queries - http://css-tricks.com/css-media-queries/
