Review : Lenovo ThinkPad 8

  • PROS
    Small 8-inch form factor is truly portable. All-day battery life. QuickShot cover makes photos a snap. Professional, yet affordable.
  • CONSQuickShot smart cover is optional (and extra). No physical keyboard option. Few ports and connections available.
  • BOTTOM LINE
    The Lenovo ThinkPad 8 is an 8-inch Windows tablet that puts your work into a handheld PC you can slip into a coat pocket. It's not a replacement for your work system, but it's an excellent companion to it.

iPhone 6 Rumoured to Have Ultra Retina Display

iPhone 6 rumoured to have 389ppi Ultra Retina display, be 0.22 inches thick

iPhone 6 rumoured to have ultra retina display

The announcement of a new iPhone or iPad no longer comes with any real surprises. All the details are leaked weeks before Apple does its official unveiling. And one of the people with a track record of leaking reliable Apple product details is Sonny Dickson, who regularly tweets bits of info relating to in-development devices.
We’ve still got over 6 months until the expected launch of an iPhone 6, but Apple must already be hard at work developing it, and Dickson has his contacts feeding him information about the handset. So what can we expect to see in an iPhone 6?
We’re already expecting Apple’s smartphone to get bigger. The competition has moved on from 4-inch displays. For most people bigger really is better, and Apple needs to react to that. What you may not expect is the iPhone 6 to ship with an Ultra Retina Display. The iPhone 5S has a 326ppi Retina Display, but the iPhone 6 is thought to increase that to 389ppi and be branded Ultra Retina. That’s not as impressive as the marketing-friendly name suggests, especially when you consider the Galaxy S5′s display is 432ppi.
Inside the iPhone 6 will be an A8 processor, which Dickson has stated Apple is running at 2.6GHz. For comparison the iPhone 5Sruns a dual-core A7 chip at 1.3GHz. The Galaxy S5 uses a quad-core Snapdragon running at 2.5GHz. If the A8 retains that speed at launch and is a quad-core chip, the iPhone 6 should be a very fast handset.
So far the rumors above haven’t suggested Apple is doing anything new, or outperforming its main rival in any significant way. But one area where Apple always seems to do best is in how thin it can make its devices. The iPhone 6 is expected to be no different. Where as the iPhone 5S is 0.3 inches thick, somehow Apple has reduced that to 0.22 inches for the 6.
The thinner handset does make sense if the screen size has increased to around 5-inches. That means there’s still space inside the case to retain a larger battery size while reducing thickness. And Apple will be very keen to retain its long battery life claims.
