Get ready eBay: more than a few iPad 2 (and first-generation iPads) are going to plow through its virtual shelves. The reason? The iPad 3 is on the way. And not only that. In addition, it will come with news that could be considered even more attractive than what the jump from the first iPad supposed to the one that went on sale on March 25 of this year that is close to ending.
And it is that as they have published on the CNET site, based on information supported by analyst Richard Shim from Display Search, the production of the screen that will carry the iPad 3 has begun. And not only that: Shim has confirmed that it is the screen that has come to be called Retina, and that it is characterized by a high density of pixels per inch.
Specifically, the iPad 3 canvas would have a resolution of no less than 2,048 x 1,536 pixels spread over ten inches. Be careful with this. They point to ten inches, although we do not know if it has been an inaccuracy when rounding the 9.7 inches of the iPad and iPad 2 or if Apple has really decided to slightly expand the dimensions of the reference tablet.
In total, as they clarify from Unwired View, the panel of the iPad 3 would distribute a total of 3,145,728 pixels compared to the 786,432 pixels of the two current generations of the tablet developed by Cupertino.
The difference is obvious: the imminent generation of the iPad is quadruple in definition to the models we already know, which is no small feat, considering that the tablets that are now available in stores already show excellent image results of per yes.
That being the case, it would not be surprising if Apple gives a break to those who have been nominating the future tablet of the house as iPad 3, and goes on to call it iPad HD, a name that would suit the finger, since, in fact, the device would surpass the indices that define the quality that we know as high definition (which so far reaches the ceiling in a resolution of 1080 horizontal lines).
