The New iPad: continue production problems for Retinal Display

Problems continue to partner with Apple in the production of displays for the new iPad. In all probability,  Samsung remains the major supplier of Retinal Display for the new apple tablet  since other suppliers, LG and Sharp, though they looked ready for mass production, continue to experience problems in the production phase.

The analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities, has revealed to AppleInsider that Samsung was the only provider of Retina display in the first quarter of 2012.  Kuo said that Apple expects that the division of LG Display will start providing their own products from the second quarter of 2012, while for the Sharp does not know anything yet.

 

The other company, unlike Samsung, have found huge problems in the production of these new displays  , which contain a number of pixels than traditional TVs Full HD 1080p ( 2048 x 1536 display against the Retina 1920 x 1080 full-HD TVs 1080p ).

Kuo added that Sharp will probably  not achieve a satisfactory rate of production at least until the third quarter of  this because the Japanese company is still facing problems related to the adoption of technology Oxide . Despite all this, then, Samsung is still indispensable to Apple, and their bond will trade partnership that will last much longer .  by

iPad 1 vs. iPad 2 vs. the new iPad: boot times compared (Video)

After discovering virtually all of the new iPad third generation , the guys at iClarified have made ​​an important new test video showing the start times of all three generations of the Apple tablet. The video has been assembled specifically to put the 3 tablet side by side, but as you can see Out of the switch on the iPad, the test was performed separately for each device at a distance of one or more minutes.

The result is somewhat unexpected, it seems that with the succession of generations, the tablet of the apple has become slower and slower - obviously only ascension . It starts with a start time of 25 seconds exactly, recorded by the iPad first generation, and then arrive at 31.63 seconds recorded by the third generation, passing for 28 seconds exactly iPad 2. After the jump, the video, very short, showing what was said earlier.

The new iPad and the yellow halos of the display: our experience

The marketing of the new iPad is now in full swing in our market. At a distance of just over a week after the device you can start to draw up a budget on the first tablet of the defects of youth reported by several users. Despite the limitations of the impossibility of proving a large quantity of tablets, we also report our testimony regarding the alleged defect of the display of yellow halos that was reported on the network.

Let a premise. At the time talking about the alleged problem of the display of yellow halos (theme in some ways and that is accompanied by the launch of every new Apple product) is a topic that must be kept distinct from that of the warmer tones of the Retina display of the new iPad compared to that of iPad 2 . This last aspect should be regarded not so much a real flaw, but rather a feature of the display which can like it or not.

Other speech regards the subject of the presence of more or less yellow zones that characterize only a part of the display . Our evidence, in fact, have shown that in at least two of the four tablets tested by preparing such a defect exists. In both cases, the affected area is greater than the left of the display and marginally dx. To make visible in the area affected by the presence of the yellow stripe we photographed the screen background is completely white and then yellow saturated tones with an image editor. We repeated the test several times, but the result has always been the following:

Even with the second exemplary tried, the result was substantially similar:

At this point we must specify how that can be considered a fault affects everyday use. The perception of the defect will vary from user to user: some people can live peacefully and those who follow the way of replacement. Personally, we felt quite the defect mainly when reading an ebook and some Web pages, but, again, varies depending on the judgment of users. We made two substitutions of our iPad to see if the defect could be rare, but like I said two of the four tested iPad show results similar to those reported.

Waiting to collect further evidence about it, we can only suggest contacting support for a replacement if the product does not suit your tastes. Anyone who buys an Apple Store has the advantage of being able to ask (even in the absence of defects) the exchange or a refund within the first 14 days of purchase. We reiterate, however, that the defect is very subjective. Working with monitors of a certain quality in a graphical environment we have noticed the defect immediately, without forcing saturation in photoshop. Other users may not notice or do not have this problem at all.

Let us know if you too have noticed the defect that we described.
