# Canvas/WebGL renders with a literal `devicePixelRatio: 2` (or `width * 2`)

`lint/hardcoded-device-pixel-ratio` · severity **info** · category Lint · detected by `void lint` and `void audit`

## Why it matters

Magic UI globe hardcodes DPR 2: on DPR-1 screens that is 4× the pixels to shade every frame, and on DPR-3 phones it is blurry. GPU cost scales with pixel count.

## How to fix it

Use `Math.min(window.devicePixelRatio, 1.5)` (read in an effect, never at module scope) and resize on `ResizeObserver`.

## Example

```ts
const dpr = Math.min(window.devicePixelRatio || 1, 1.5);
canvas.width = Math.round(width * dpr);
```
