Retina Display for iPad 3...maybe...

[TampaDude]

LG's CEO supposedly had a "slip of the tongue"...

Retina Display coming to Apple's next iPad according to LG Display CEO

...of course, when he said "iPad", he may have meant "iPod", as in the latest iPod touch.

We'll see what happens...but if iPad 3 has a retina display (likely 2048 x 1536), I'm definitely getting one!

iPod touch already has Retina Display so it wouldn't warrant any press IMHO.
If Retina Display does make its way into the iPad 3, the competition will be floored.
Fun times ahead!

Well it's not like they couldn't do it I mean if they can do it for a phone or iPod why not iPad

 

[riley9dy]

Well it would be more difficult to achieve a retina display on the ipad than an ipod touch or iphone because the screen is obviously way bigger. but i think they could do it.. and that would be awesome

Fingers crossed for retina.

I think that's not easy, you guys consider that if 2048*1536 for screen solution, even that a lot of personal developers have not such a good monitor for design, app is the most importance thing to apple perform, that makes difficult to produce new app.

must embed a supercomputer inside ipad3

That's fixable: put retina displays in the MacBooks/iMacs:
MacBook Air 11: 2732x1536
MacBook Air/Pro 13: 2880x1800
MacBook Pro 15: 3360x2100
Macbook Pro 17: 3840x2400
iMac 21.5: 3840x2160
iMac 27/Thunderbolt Display: 5120x2880

There are a lot of rumours that they are trying to make retina display for the iPad 3, it would be awesome if they did. It's kind of the next needed "big" upgrade on the iPad. I would almost consider upgrading again if they did bring out the retina display.

 

[derfel]

it will be a great iPad, i'm sure. And if I think... a movie on a big retina display... wow!

what are the odds of the new iPad having retina? 10 being absolute and 1 being not probable.

I've come to realize that it doesn't even matter, what ever it is, it's going to change that future.

Changing the future is a bit much. The first iPad, yes but now I wouldn't expect anything mind blowing. No different with the iPhones after the original. The first changed the mobile industry. The others have not but you can't expect them to. Also 100% the new one has a retina display.

Ouch, the size of the apps will increase a lot!
And the work of designers!

So? Progress only comes with work, should Apple stop innovating so that devs can be lazy?

I hope the iPhone 5 has a larger retina screen as well so that devs are forced to update all their apps since there are a lot of crappy apps out there, it would show who cares about their work and separate the junk from the good stuff as far as I'm concerned. There are still app icons that are low resolution still!

Wow, Retina Display for Ipad... This is going to be EPIC if they do it successfully. Definitely will need a high end processor for that.

An updated CPU is a given here.

Hopefully some more ram to help render all those hi-res apps as well.
