Washington: Apple have remarkable response at the launch of Apple iPad Mini with retina display, but it went short of colours.
The device enhances the pixel count on the 7.9-inch screen, but may fall slightly short in the colour department, according to an exhaustive display test.
The AnandTech blog suggested that the device has a smaller gamut of colours than the iPad Air, as well as cheaper rivals than the Google Nexus 7 and Amazon Kindle Fire HD.
Essentially, that means there are some colours that the new iPad mini with Retina Display cannot process and hence cannot display 100 per cent accurately.
It’s a small difference, but a visibly noticeable one according to the site’s review, with some colours on the iPad Air apparently appearing brighter and more vivid.
Apple made this so-called ‘trade-off’ as the company believes those who care about accurate colour reproduction – photographers and the like – will choose to opt for the iPad Air.
“It’s a shame that this is a tradeoff that exists between the two iPads especially given how good Apple is about sRGB coverage in nearly all of its other displays,” wrote Anand Lal Shimpi.
While the iPad mini with Retina Display does bring the number one requested feature into play – a HD+ display – it seems that Apple may still have a little bit of work to do to reach a state of visual nirvana.
However, we all know how Apple likes to leave a little room for improvement.
