Digitimes are reporting that Apple will release a “4K resolution panel” with the iPad in March, citing “Taiwan-based supply chain makers”:
The new 9.7-inch device will reportedly come equipped with a 4K resolution panel and up to 4GB in RAM, in addition to improved battery life.
While possible, it’s highly unlikely. Consider that the only 4K tablet on the market is made by Panasonic for $6,000, and it ships with 8GB of RAM. The amount of battery and weight added by a 4K panel, as well as the added cost and marginal benefit to consumers, makes this report incredulous.
