Wait, just how did he stick it to them? My buddy, who works for Samsung, says Apple is one of their biggest customers. So just how are they sticking it to Samsung again?
Well, since the last two iPhone models had Retina displays, it's pretty sure that the next generation handset will at least have the same resolution.Crossing my fingers the iPhone 5 displays will be retina

Of course they will be retina, why wouldn't they be? 1136 x 640 is just added pixels, the density won't change.
Great. Here comes Ole Yeller. I'll take a Samsung screen any day but since they can't get along we are stuck with yellow washed out crap.
Yet another example of first mover advantage for Apple coupled with maxing out the factory capacity of not one but three factories.
It is looking like the almost 30% power savings of the display is more than offset by the LTE transceiver usage. Hopefully the sheer speed of LTE will allow it to be on less.
I guess we can look toward this on the iPad Mini V 2.0. I suspect V1.0 will be price sensitive. But I might be surprised.

I sold my 64GB white iPhone 4S on eBay in anticipation of the new iPhone. I got $450 for it and luckily was a promo eBay was doing and there were no selling fees.
I'm using my old iPhone 4 until the new release.
Ehhhh, I'll pass.
Its the 4S 3
I'm looking to Android and Windows Phone 8 now

First of all all iPods and iPhones have been "Retina" for the last 2 generations.
Second, "Retina" is a made up term by by Apple. It means Jack.

That would be the 'magical' moment for me. Hell, I'd sell my iPad 3 just to get a chance at an IGZO Pad. Up to 90% power reduction? 'The Hell?! The Future Cometh.
iPhone displays are already retina (displays).Crossing my fingers the iPhone 5 displays will be retina
Who makes BenQ then?
Been after a new LCD for my G5PM and just got one this morning, looks good, not I can hold out for the new iMac
Just see what happens when the iPhone is released as to what I can afford.9 pin charger dock/headphone jack
Sort of off the subject here, but was wondering if this picture here is correct http://www.idownloadblog.com/2012/0...rported-iphone-5-magsafe-like-dock-connector/
And the headphone jack is now at the bottom of the iPhone 5, how would someone keep their earpiece plugged in while it's sitting in the dock charging?

This makes smaller batteries possible, which cost less money. IGZO-displays are also cheaper than other high resolution display-types.
Up to 90 percent only for the display, not the entire tablet computer. The entire tablet computer requires 60 percent less power, if the manufacturer replaces the "standard" display with the IGZO-display. See also:That would be the 'magical' moment for me.

Nope. Sony and Samsung once had a joint venture called S-LCD (this is not Super LCD) to build large displays that had little to do with small mobile phone LCDs. Samsung bought Sony's shares and it's all Samsung but that still has nothing to do with iPhone.
The part of Sony that made phone LCDs were Sony Mobile Display that was a completely separate division from S-LCD. When Japanese LCD makers were struggling, Sony Mobile Display merged with other companies to form a new company called Japan Display.
In short iPhone display has nothing to do with Samsung and neither does Sony Mobile Display which is now Japan Display. On a related note Japan Display is the one that supplies the excellent screens of HTC One X.
