Q:

Android widget sizing: Is the height of a single cell 80dp or 40dp?

I'm having a bit of trouble understanding some of the google documentation. Specifically, this link suggests that for widgets 1 cell has a height and width of 40dp, 110dp for 2 cells etc. 
In practice however, it seems that I can set my minHeight and Width as high as 80dp before my widget switches from being a 1x1 widget to a 2x2 widget. Does anyone know how to explain this variation? (And for that matter why your first cell in the documentation is 40dp, but if you want to occupy 2 cells, you have more than twice the space? 
Thanks!

A:

If you're referring to launcher cells, the values change (depending on grid size in different launchers.
For normal launchers, these are the dp per cell.
1   40dp
2   110dp
3   180dp
4   250dp
n   70 × n − 30
