Currently, MFDeviceWidthMobileSmall is set to 280.
To my knowledge there has been only one Android device with lower than 320px (I think it was a Samsung five or six years ago, not very popular) and since then the minimum width is set equal to the original iPhone with 320px.
In my understanding, the variable should be increased to 320 as well

[mediawiki/extensions/MobileFrontend@master] Increase MFDeviceWidthMobileSmall to 320 elsewhere
Some context on the name - "MobileSmall" refers to old feature phones e.g. Nokia's that have tiny screens and that's what it's targeted at.
As you point out 320 is a sensible mobile threshold but since MobileFrontend/Minerva skin work in a mobile first way they never care about this. It's the default.
Long story short... yes. It's already 320px in Minerva and that's what I'm pushing for in T171365 :)
