Is the Simulator or Emulator closer to matching device?

When I run my web application on the Tizen Web Simulator and the Tizen Emulator using the same resolution (HD 720x1280) and density (DPI), the display does not match. Which one is closer to the display on the actual Tizen device?

It's the emulator, which is closer to the target hardware (full system emulation). The supported screen resolution for emulator are, WVGA (480 x 800) and HD (720 x 1280, default). So running application on emulator will help to understand, how it'll look on the target device.

Thanks for the info. I have been using 720x1280 on the emulator and the font size does not match the simulator at the same resolution and size.

A simulation is never closer than a emulation! The simulation is just a WebInterfacer! Like a Browser. He has not a full device support!

Surprised to see that the font sizes would not match on the same size screen.
