I think with thoughtful design, most devices can be grouped into a small number of classifications (such as phone, small tablet, large tablet, and computer screen), with one media query per classification.

1,363 Pointsyou are right !
I thought there may be some common media queries based on the most used devices, but that relate directly to the website audience which mean it changes based on the project itself.
so research is a mandatory to figure those queries out.
thank you !
