The Layout component itself will have to be set in pixels. I can say from experience using it on a larger device (iPhone 12 Pro Max) that it generally creates a nice UI across all devices.

As @domhnallohanlon mentioned above, if you’re working on queries for larger devices (i.e. tablets), using the blocks to help you dynamically change the scale is a great solution.
