Geek Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 <div class="KonaBody"><p><img src="http://osxdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/ipad-3-vs-other-resolutions.jpg" alt="iPad 3 vs other resolutions" title="ipad-3-vs-other-resolutions" width="620" height="465" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-27052" style="border:1px solid #333;" /></p> <p>Assuming iPad 3 (or whatever the next iPad is called) gets the <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2012/02/09/ipad-3-release-set-for-march/">much rumored</a> and highly anticipated ‘retina’ treatment, the screens resolution would come in at a whopping 2048×1536 pixels. That’s an enormous amount of pixels for a screen that isn’t even 10″, and to help convey just how large that is comes an image from <a href="http://clkoerner.com/2012/02/09/what-does-the-new-ipad-screen-look-like/">clkoerner</a> that compares the rumored iPad 3 resolution to other common resolutions, including the original iPhones, retina iPhones, prior iPads, and a Blu-ray full HD 1080p movie.</p> <p><a href="http://clkoerner.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/omgitsfullofpixels.png" target="_blank">Click here to see the full version</a>, be prepared to do a lot of horizontal and vertical scrolling. </p> <p>As we’ve mentioned before, there is currently no Mac screen capable of displaying a resolution of that size natively, which will pose an interesting challenge for developers and designers to prepare artwork and apps for the next iPad. That fact combined with <a href="http://osxdaily.com/2012/02/07/high-dpi-cursors-found-in-os-x-10-7-3/">recent evidence</a> and rumors have led many to believe that Macs with high DPI displays may arrive soon after iPad 3 is announced, although this could be just wishful thinking. A refreshed Apple lineup complete with ultra high resolutions? Let’s hope so, we’ll be finding out soon enough.</p> </div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/nufZnX9aZA93NFxKgQYeToHvmZY/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/nufZnX9aZA93NFxKgQYeToHvmZY/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/nufZnX9aZA93NFxKgQYeToHvmZY/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/nufZnX9aZA93NFxKgQYeToHvmZY/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=X8Wo-V07a_0:g0ysUZxi_4U:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=X8Wo-V07a_0:g0ysUZxi_4U:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=X8Wo-V07a_0:g0ysUZxi_4U:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=X8Wo-V07a_0:g0ysUZxi_4U:D7DqB2pKExk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=X8Wo-V07a_0:g0ysUZxi_4U:D7DqB2pKExk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=X8Wo-V07a_0:g0ysUZxi_4U:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=X8Wo-V07a_0:g0ysUZxi_4U:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/osxdaily/~4/X8Wo-V07a_0" height="1" width="1"/> View the full article
