While all the tablets that are available today offer resolution 1024×768, however the fact that makes this tablet special is; it is the first tablet to use Retina Display and it offers 2048×1536 resolution which is remarkably awesome, offering improved text rendering and crisp images. Apple is also planning to lengthen the screen size of iPhone 5 by 8mm. The phone is expected to have a metal casing as well.



The Good News
