I made a skin (in html5) so everything will fit inside a 720x720 window.
But in practice it exceeds a 1080 χ 1920 screen (GalaxyS4)
as if the screen is 600x400 or something

The skin:

I have seen the same problem on HTC One X+ (1280x720 screen). Maximum size of skins that can fit the screen is about 600x350 pixels. Think the device blows the skin elements up by 2.

Hi,
This looks like a logical screen size vs screen resolution issue.
Example:
iPad 2 = 1024 x 768
iPad 3, 4 and Air = 2048 x 1536.
However the logical screen size is still 1024 x 768 on all the above devices.
When laying out a skin it would need to fit 1024 x 768.

Try halving the resolution when making a skin, example 1289x 720 screen res, make the skin 640 x 360.
I tried to Google for logical screen size but did not find anything in the time I had.
Regards,
Hopki
