The short answer: A mango typically weighs about 200 to 350 grams (7 to 12 ounces), though large varieties can be heavier.
Mango weight by type
Mango weight varies widely by variety, and a large flat seed means the edible portion is less than the whole fruit. Here are some common types and their typical weights.
| Type (example) | Typical weight |
|---|---|
| Ataulfo / honey mango | about 150-250 g (5.3-8.8 oz) |
| Tommy Atkins mango | about 350-450 g (12-16 oz) |
| Kent / Keitt mango | about 400-700 g (14 oz-1.5 lb) |
| Average supermarket mango | about 200-350 g (7-12 oz) |
What affects mango weight
- Variety. Ataulfo, Tommy Atkins, Kent, and Keitt mangoes differ greatly in size.
- Size grade. Large mangoes can weigh several times a small one.
- Seed. The large flat pit is part of the whole-fruit weight.
- Ripeness. Ripe mangoes hold their juice and weigh consistently.
- Water content. Fresh mangoes weigh more than overripe, softening ones.
- Growing conditions. Climate and care affect fruit size.
How mango weight compares
An average mango weighs about the same as two medium apples or a can of soup (around 280 grams), while a large Kent mango can rival a small grapefruit.
