Roboto: Android font explained By Glenn Fleishman
The article mentions "low 100s of ppi to 300 ppi," which is about the range for smartphone screens these days. Most desktops and notebooks still have displays at around 96 dpi.

On a 17" 1920x1200 display Roboto still looks like crap.
It has no desktop anti-alias feature. To me it never looks good, but on desktop especially crappy.
