Font issues

I am getting different experience on different devices, while testing textfield font. 

I am testing on samsung galaxy tablet and samsung galaxy SII. on tablet i get the write behavior as it should from code i write, on SII i get it really tiny. How does it come, any idea please?
 

textField.font = native.newFont( native.systemFont, 16 )

P.s: then if i change size to 12, i get it still big on tablet  :(

What version of Corona SDK are you using?  We made significant changes to how fonts scale in daily build 2520.  If you can grab a later daily build this might solve your problems for you.
