just got response from J-P Nurmi in Forum:

/Qt shows windows fullscreen/maximized [*] by default when appropriate.
Thus, the desired window size specified in the Gallery example does not
make any difference on mobile platforms, but it does on desktop
platforms where apps run in windowed mode./

[*] http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qstylehints.html#showIsFullScreen-prop


so I will remove the width and heigth from ApplicationWindow for
mobile-only applications.
