Description

From Slack:
"It looks like context properties are displayed in Sentry in alphabetical order but for things like device , it might be nice to prioritise or group some of them. Would be nice to see manufacturer/model together and memory figures next to each other. I also need to work out how Screen Height Pixels and Screen Width Pixels are null. The Electron SDK doesn’t send these. Pretty sure these used get pulled from the Screen Resolution string?"

Research direction

Start by tracing how Sentry renders device context fields and how the Electron SDK supplies screen dimensions. Check whether Screen Height Pixels and Screen Width Pixels come from the Screen Resolution value, then clarify the intended grouping for manufacturer/model and memory fields. Done means the requested ordering is defined and the Electron dimension behavior is resolved.
