The iPad 3 rumour mill is whirring itself into action, with talk of a Retina Display dominating headlines across the tech press. With mention of a device rocking a super hi-res screen in iOS 5 code, as well as analysts claiming Apple has already started work on a 2048×1536 pixel panel for its next gen slate, it seems Cupertino is dead set on making the iPad even sharper.
That’s all well and good. But let’s face it. Slapping on a Retina Display isn’t, and shouldn’t, be priority number one. Users have had the option to jump ship to Android tablets with better panels for almost a year, and sales figures suggest they’re happy to stick with the current iPad’s 1024×768 effor
Adding a display of 2048×1536 will definitely make movies, games and apps look even more stunning on the iPad then they already do. But there are already warnings about prohibitively high costs. With Apple’s form, I could see this being passed onto the end users, at a time when tablets need to be cheaper than ever. The Kindle Fire should give Apple plenty of pause for thought in this regard.
