Who eagerly looking forward to an iPad mini with retina display, will still need to have. wait until early 2014 Production problems delay the launch of the tablet, according to market researcher DisplaySearch.
According to analyst Richard Shim of NPD DisplaySearch is the expected launch date still subject to change. But as things stand, Shim told the news site CNet, he sees the little Apple tablet only appear with sharp display in the first quarter of 2014.
Before the time is up, the Apple Supplier manufacture of large numbers of retina screens at a reasonable cost, must master. That is not the case.
Selection display technology not yet
DisplaySearch not yet clear which technology Apple wants to use for the iPad mini with retina display. One of the options is “low temperature polysilicon ‘(LTPS), a type of screen that is in the iPhone 5.
AccordingShim, it is not easy to apply to larger displays. LTPS The so-called yield (yield), the percentage without workmanship, goes down as the screen is bigger. The iPad Mini has a screen of 7.9 inches while that of the iPhone 5 has a diameter of 4 inches.
Retina Display tablet is thicker and heavier
Another problem is that a retina display would make than the current model. the iPad mini thicker and heavier This is because an image display with more dots takes more energy to achieve, which makes necessary a thicker battery. The same light output Such a battery would not fit into the existing housing.
Apple introduced the iPad mini in October 2012. The tablet with its 7.9 inch screen slightly smaller than the regular 9.7-inch iPad. Besides a lot of praise for the iPad mini is also criticized loose on the relatively low resolution of the screen (1024 x 768 pixels), which therefore what ‘grainy’ doing to. The same goes for the iPad 2, a model of two years ago that is still available at a reduced price. The large iPad mini with retina display has four times as many pixels and thus provides a much sharper image.
