Rumour: Ipad mini coming out with a 7.7 inch display coming out with the resolution with 1024x768.
First of all, apple won't make an ipad this small as steve jobs said in his biography and other websites where he was mentioned said 'before we actually produced the 9.7 inch display, we've tested other inch displays such as the 7.7 inch and the 10.1 and the one that stood out from the group was the 9.7' that's one of the reasons why apple won't make a 7.7 inch display.
2nd reason, if they were going to make a 7.7 inch ipad, they wouldn't keep it at 1024x768 because 1024x768/7.7 = 168 ppi and apple wouldn't make retina display with a pixel density of 326 pixels per inch (ppi) and then put it all the way down to 168. It doesn't make any sense.
Steve jobs said that 9.7 inch tablets are the perfect sweet spot that should never be altered. I know that the company has been taken over by tim cook who I've got a lot of faith in for bringing stunning new devices to the market. I've not got faith in him as a presenter of conferences as he lacks euphemism. If apple did make a 7.7 inch display they would actually dishonour steve jobs and his words.
Thanks for reading :)
'lacks euphemism' or enthusiasm :-) bit of a difference!
ReplyDeleteI agree as well, no iPad mini. Lower price ipad2 is doing well it seems according to 2nd quarter conf call results.
ReplyDeletethey won't bring out a cheaper iPad 2 as they are already cheap and able to enter the educational market in america
ReplyDeleteI was reading the other day that anlynsis says that the Ipad mini is a matter of when not if.
ReplyDeleteNot if you consider how the kindle fire 7" tablet has took a dive in the last 3 months. They need to go outside of the US and fast!
ReplyDeleteSchools could easily work with the touchpad :)
