Not sure if this is entirely correct but an idea. Im not an expert at all Check your code (min-device-width : 720px) should be (min-device-height : 720px) Also maybe try it without the only keyword.

good eye i played around with the surface a bit more weird device if i use the max-device-height of 1280px then i'm able to direct a media query to it. thats backwards as you'd think it'd be the width a compound test of max-device-height of 1280px and max-device-width of 720px does not work. Bizzare. I'll keep u posted.
