Rumor: iPad 3 will have two models, one with retinal screen


The Taiwanese rumor site DigiTimes claims that the iPad 3 are not equal to the market will come as an iPhone and the iPad 2. Instead of a single model with and without 3G, there would be two very different models of the iPhone 3 appear. One of these was the previously discussed retinal screen , while a cheaper model contains the same screen as above iPads. Both iPhone 3 models, according to the source cited has not revealed the A6 processor contains.





The retinal display of expensive iPad 3, a resolution of 2048 by 1536 pixels, support, double the old iPhone display with a resolution of 1024 by 768. When the retinal screen in the iPhone 4 was introduced, Apple claimed that it was impossible to pixels with the naked eye.



With a cheaper model would Apple iPad 3 to a wider audience to sell. A budget variation for between 299 and $ 399, according to DigiTimes in this case unlikely. Currently the cheapest iPhone takes 2 in the U.S. $ 499 and 479 euros in the Netherlands.
