Because you are running in density compatibility mode. And for the most part, it is far better to get the screen size by creating your view hierarchy and seeing what size the view(s) get set to. The size you get from Display is the absolute size of the physical screen, which doesn't account for screen decorations like the status bar, soft keyboard, and who knows what other things may be added on some devices in the future.
