    <div class="wrap">
        <h1>Hi There!</h1>
        <p>
            Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Morbi lectus ante, luctus vel euismod ut, suscipit quis ligula. Vestibulum augue ante, semper sit amet congue non, faucibus sit amet lacus.
        </p>
        <p>
            Maecenas lobortis porttitor nisi, quis congue neque porta at. Donec interdum arcu eu ante semper nec venenatis ipsum dignissim. Vestibulum ultricies mi quis lectus suscipit fermentum.
        </p>
    </div>

Hello,

Because the challenge is asking you to create a media query for a browser width of 800px or wider, we know that you need to use the min-width property ("800px or wider" means "the browser is at least 800px wide", or "a minimum width of 800px"), and you need to remove your "and (min-width: 480px)" addition to the query. The query should simply be a min-width check on 800px.
