Apple tests and high resolution graphics chips for future iPhones

Diposting oleh admin di 10.45

The Apple learned from Steve Jobs to look to the future today, and the company's new rumors prove it. According to sources close to the Cupertino company, they are testing new models for future GPUs graphics of the iPhone , aiming to increase the resolution of screens. 



Who is the site informs German Macerkopf.de , who obtained the details of these tests with a software engineer at Apple . Tests would be at least 14 different graphics chips, with driver support for displaying high resolution images, such as 1280 x 720 and 1440 x 800 pixels. The difference is large compared to the current screen resolution 4/4S iPhone, which has a resolution of 960 x 640 pixels.

The source also reports that Apple is testing two sets of seven different drivers, working chips with dual-core or quad-core. Within each group, the company is testing four different drivers with screen resolution of 960 x 640, two drivers working with 1280 x 720 screens, and a driver operating on a display with a resolution of 1440 x 800 pixels.

The report also notes that the drivers are only used in tests, and there is no indication that the company will launch new GPUs with any product or screens with higher resolution. In addition, higher resolution screens do not provide results as effective as those who have the current iPhone models. By increasing the screen resolution, developers would have to change their applications, resizing them to be displayed correctly in the new resolution. For example, to take the screen with Retina Display, Apple doubled the resolution of the screen horizontally and vertically, thus allowing low-resolution applications to be easily expanded through the technique of doubling of pixels on the screen.

However, we have to make a point of qualification. The site Macerkopf.de has agreed in its latest rumors. Recently, they reported incorrectly that the iOS 5.0.2 would be released in late November, from time to solve the problems of excessive consumption of battery, which did not happen. The statement was later removed from the site, with the argument that a memory leak problem caused the delay in launching the new version.
