I have a webpage that works fine on all apple and samsungs mobiles. I've made everything responsive. So I thought everything was finished.
However my friend has a sony experia and when I viewed the webpage on that device the layout was broken. I can't really get my head round how I go about solving this.
When I reduce my webpage on the browser to tiny the website looks fine. So again I don't know what to do.
What should I be looking for? what things should I be doing to find a solution?

as well as the remote mobile debugging tools too:
