Explanation:
Note:
* Browsing the web on a mobile device is now so common that a SharePoint site must be optimized
for readability and ease of use on smartphones and other mobile devices such as tablets. With
device channels in SharePoint 2013, you can render a single publishing site in multiple ways by using
different designs that target different devices.
* A device channel is part of the SharePoint 2013 publishing infrastructure that enables you to
render certain site content, style your content, and even change images—while maintaining the
same URL across a pool of different devices. Compared to the desktop version of the SharePoint site,
a mobile rendering can be formatted with a smaller width, have better navigation with wider touch
targets, and show a reduced amount of information for better usability. You can create a single site,
and author and edit the content a single time for all your different mobile devices. When a user
browses a SharePoint site from a mobile device such as a smartphone or tablet, the mobile browser
submits to the site an HTTP GET request that includes a user agent string. This string contains
information about the type of device that is trying to access the site. Based on that device substring,
the device browser can be redirected to a specific master page view.
