iPhone 6 with 4.7 inch screen will be released in September, if we are to give credence to new information about the company's plans Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),, and one of the big questions has to do with the resolution the 4.7 inch screenh. Well according some information obtained today from inside sources Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),, iPhone 6 with 4.7 inch screen will have a resolution of 1704 x 960 pixels, and in the image above you can see as well as possible the difference between what it offers Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), now and what you will offer in the future.
To begin with, I will tell you that Apple will implement in iOS 8 a new system called pixel-tripling (3X), allowing applications to run on Retina screens smaller than 4 inches. This means that currently resolution of 1136 x 640 pixels, Apple will add another half of the number of pixels displayed on the screen and we will reach a resolution of 1704 x 960 pixels, compared to the "basic" resolution, 580x 320 pixels, of the iPhone screen, it being calculated in both directions of information display.
With a simple calculation, you notice that the resolution that would be implemented in iPhone 6 it is triple compared to the standard one, Apple going to keep the aspect ratio at 16:9. All the sketches and rumors that have appeared so far indicated the exact same preservation of the aspect of the screen, so although it will be taller and wider, it will not have a different aspect ratio.
Regarding the number of pixels per inch, a simple calculation tells us that The iPhone 6 with a 4.7-inch screen will have 416 pixels per inch to the resolution 1704 x 960 pixels. Increasing the number of pixels per inch means displaying much clearer images for any kind of multimedia content or not, Apple falling behind, from this point of view, its competitors with terminals Android.
By increasing the screen resolution, those from Apple will also modify the graphic elements of the interface, so that all the application menus will be displayed in a larger format, as you can already see from the images. Moreover, users will have available options that will allow them to modify their applications in the same way to display more content on the screens, but also in a larger format. In the past, Apple took advantage of the increase in screen size and resolution to display more information, and with iPhone 6 things will not be different.
Although we are talking about an important change for resolution and size, when it comes to using applications, we may not have to wait for updates after updates. Starting with iOS 7Apple forced the developers to give up to a good extent the raster graphics, this allows a much easier update of the applications, some being able to work natively without requiring an update for the new resolution. Although the applications could be displayed on the entire screen of the terminal even if they are not optimized for it, the images or other fixed graphic elements could be displayed pixelated if their resolution is lower than the required one.
In order to give developers the option to update their applications more easily, Apple is preparing an update for Xcode which will allow the use of multiple resolutions in the development of applications. The whole change will be similar to the one we went through in 2010 when Apple released the first iPhone with Retina Display, so everything should work without problems on the surface, for a start.
Finally, we learn some new information about the new face A8, Apple slightly improving on the previous chip design A7 without majorly improving performance in applications, everything being focused on improving battery autonomy. With a 4.7-inch screen, Apple needs a lot of optimizations in the energy management system without implementing a much larger capacity battery, and the new A8 chip will provide it with the idea of keeping the battery autonomy unchanged.
Given that The iPhone 6 with a 4.7-inch screen will be presented only in September, we will find out enough information until then.
