Safari shows low resolution images on iPad 3

Posted on 06:50 by Unknown
I was trawling the web for the latest news and came across a review of the iPad 3 by Tom's Hardware. This is a great website, although the content may be a bit technical for casual computer users. I like it though.

It has a review of the iPad 3, well mainly the display, and on this page it reveals that Safari will not display any image that is more than 1024 pixels high. In order to display web pages quickly it resamples large images and shrinks them down until they are below 1024 pixels.

This means that you can't view high resolution images online at photo sharing websites even though although the iPad 3 has a screen resolution of 2048 x 1536. It automatically reduces the resolution and you can't change this behaviour. That's irritating when you've just rushed out to buy a new iPad with a hi res screen.
