What is Retina display?

What is Retina display?

Retina display is an Apple brand of display technology used in iPads, iPods, iPhones and Apple MacBook laptop computers.  The display is designed to have high enough resolution so that the human eye cannot see pixelation at normal viewing distances.  In other words, if a curved line is displayed on a Retina display, the individual square pixels that are used to render the curved line should not be visible.



What is the Resolution of a Retina display?

The third and fourth generator iPad and iPad Air have a Retina display with a resolution of 2048×1536 pixels.  The display density is 264 pixels per inch.  This works out to a pixel density of 69 pixels per degree at a viewing distance of 15 inches.
