Iphone 4.0 screen technology is revealed

RUMOURS ABOUT Apple’s Iphone 4.0 screen technology have consolidated as suppliers have let slip about specifications and features.

According to sources at Digitimes, suppliers charged with building some of the next Iphone’s components have leaked details of its improved screen technology. The secretive Cupertino company’s fanbois will be weeping tears of joy into their double mocha latte espressos with whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles.

Digitimes senior analyst Ming-Chi Kuo revealed that the updated screen will use in-plane switching panels with fringe-field switching. This should give Iphone users a clearer screen with a wider viewing angle so they will be able to see clearly the halo of Steve Jobs’ glowing visage.

LG is making the panel for the Iphone and the resolution has been upped to 960×640. This is twice the resolution of the previous Iphone and is more than Android’s default of 854×480.

The Iphone 4.0 will have 512MB of RAM, an Arm Cortex A8 processor and is expected to be thinner. Sources reckon its internals will be 33 per cent slimmer, making room for a bigger battery so it will have longer battery life.

If these claims are true, surely the Iphone 4G will be in direct contention with Apple’s e-book functionality in its Ipads. It should also put Apple in a better position to take on HTC’s recent smartphone home runs. But it will mean that Apple will be doing so at the risk of competing with the feature set of its larger Ipad.
