ipad mini generation 2 下一代在開發預估下半年推出


ipad mini 2 and ipad 5 is coming in 2013.
ipad mini 2 will be equipped with retina display, ohhh, perhaps. so...hold on and wait. (that s me, again)

File this one under ‘extremely predictable’, folks. Next year’s iPad Mini (which may be called iPad Mini 2, iPad Mini 2nd generation, the new iPad Mini, or Apple knows what else) will come with a Retina Display, thus rectifying one of the biggest ‘issues’ that people have had with the small tablet so far. Whether or not Retina Display really makes a difference on such a small screen remains to be seen, but, either way – it’s coming.
At least that’s what the rumor du jour is claiming. Yes, the original iPad Mini has only been on the market for five days, and here we are talking about the next one. Such is life in the fast paced mobile world.
Apparently Apple has already told display maker AU Optronics (AUO) to get ready to manufacture 7.9-inch screens with a resolution of 2,048×1,536. Incidentally, that’s the exact same resolution found on the iPad 3 and iPad 4 (or whatever Apple’s calling those this week). But since the iPad Mini’s display is smaller, it will have an even more insane 324 ppi.
And since the aspect ratio remains unchanged, once more no apps will have to be rewritten so they work on the next iPad Mini. Genius, you may say. But then why didn’t Apple launch the first iPad Mini with a screen of that resolution? This is the same as asking why the first iPad had no cameras. Easy: so there’s something ‘new’ and ‘revolutionary’ to add next year, and keep people buying.
This hasn’t been rumored yet, but I’m going to venture a guess and say that the iPad Mini 2 will also come with the A6X processor that’s currently used in the iPad 4. Or maybe it will be the A6 – anyway, we’ll see a spec bump there too. Again, Apple could have easily launched the iPad Mini with all of these – but then what would it have in store for the next one? Exactly. This has been Apple’s way of doing things in the mobile world ever since the first iPhone got released, so, in case you haven’t already – deal with it.
The iPad Mini 2 should ship in the fourth quarter of 2013.

Rumors about iPad Mini 2 have been rolling on the waves of web for quite some now. If rumors are making you believe that iPad Mini 2 will be getting launched soon, and you are getting excited to have your hands on this upcoming device, then better to stop focusing on those ‘non-sense’ rumors. The rumors are just meant to make the air hot, but nothing will follow through. Well, we are not saying so, but a new report in the same aspect.
According to report by ‘Apple Insider’, Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster told that iPad Mini 2 is one of the upcoming projects of Apple, but before its launch, iPad 5 will be hitting the shelves. iPad 5 will be redesigned version of iPad Mini, and will be hitting the market in mid-2013.

Not only the iPad 5, but company’s rumored ‘smartwatch’ will be coming ahead of iPad Mini 2. Munster strongly believes that ‘no new device’ will be launched by Apple in the first half of 2013.  Company updated all of its devices in the last quarter, so the new devices will take time to be in the market. Apple does not like to mess-up the things.
One thing is sure that iPad Mini 2 will come up with Retina Display. This tablet will have the responsibility to save Apple’s empire in tablet industry, as the sales graph of non-iPads is growing rapidly. Google Nexus 7 and Kindle Fire line-up are working as tough rivals for Apple’s iPads.

不久前才在全球 34 國開賣的 iPad Mini,是否因為硬體規格比你想像中還要差而無法引起你的興趣呢?畢竟現在大家都被高解析度的螢幕給寵壞了,所以 1024 x 768 解析度、163 ppi 畫素密度的螢幕規格實在沒有什麼爽度可言。但反過來說,若是下一代的 iPad Mini 換上高解析度 Retina Display 視網膜螢幕的話,你就會買單嗎?

友達正在開發下代 iPad Mini 面板現在有消息指出,負責生產 iPad mini 螢幕的 AU Optronics 友達光電,正在開發 2048 x 1536 解析度的下一代 iPad Mini 面板。2048 x 1536 解析度和第四代 iPad 相同,不過同樣解析度若是放在更小的 7.9 吋螢幕上,畫素密度就會高達 324 ppi,不但高於第四代 iPad 的 264 ppi,同時畫素密度也幾乎是 iPad Mini 現有螢幕的兩倍。另外,友達開發的下一代 iPad Mini 面板除了解析度大幅提昇之外,還將會採用能讓螢幕更薄、更省電的 IGZO 技術,必定能讓下一代的 iPad Mini 有著更吸引人的螢幕。

不過友達的下一代 iPad Mini 面板,據傳也要在 2013 年,也就是明年下半年可能才會開始出貨,因此想擁有單手好握、螢幕又更細緻的 iPad Mini,可是還要再耐心等待一段時間囉。
