Answer 1

Xamarin "DetectScreenSize" Recipe:

var metrics = Resources.DisplayMetrics;
var widthInDp = ConvertPixelsToDp(metrics.WidthPixels);
var heightInDp = ConvertPixelsToDp(metrics.HeightPixels);

private int ConvertPixelsToDp(float pixelValue)
{
    var dp = (int) ((pixelValue)/Resources.DisplayMetrics.Density);
    return dp;
}
