What is the size, in pixels, of AdSize.BANNER?

In my Android app, I have an AdView:

AdView adView = new AdView(this, AdSize.BANNER, MY_BANNER_UNIT_ID);

How do I get the size of this in pixels?

As mentioned in the answer by Flynn, an adView is 320 dp by 50 dp. To convert 50 dp to pixels, do

(int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 50, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());

(and similarly for 320 dp).

Alse you can convert in this way DisplayMetrics metrics = new DisplayMetrics(); getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(metrics); final int addHeight = (int) Math.ceil(50 * metrics.density); – Gelldur Nov 06 '13 at 10:32

This is the correct answer but unfortunately came late I guess. – Sufian Sep 21 '16 at 07:38

An adView is 320x50, and if the view does not fit, then it is not displayed.

No. You get 4 sizes that cannot be changed. – Flynn Jan 22 '12 at 19:11
Isn't that is dp's (not pixels)? – BenH Jan 22 '12 at 20:40

The developer site does not say, however in my personal experience the measure must be in dp because it always fills perfectly on phones – Flynn Jan 23 '12 at 04:20

Have you checked SMART_BANNER yet. I guess they takes screen width in consideration – 0xC0DED00D Oct 08 '12 at 06:17
