Samsung ready to release MacBook Retina Display beating notebook screens

Following on from the news that Samsung is planning to drop some ultra HD laptop screens – it sounds as though they should be launched very soon.

Samsung is getting ready to unveil a new super-high resolution panel which could set the standard for notebook displays.

This week, the company will launch a 13.3-inch QHD 3200 x 1800 panel with 276 pixels-per-inch (PPI), and offers greater pixel densities than Apple’s Retina MacBook Pro 13 (227 PPI) and Google’s Chromebook Pixel (239 PPI).

That’s some very impressive boasting, right there.

Last week Sharp announced it would begin manufacturing its new high-pixel density IGZO LCD panels in 11.6-inch, 14-inch, and 15.6-inch flavours.

Samsung says the display will provide 30% greater power-savings than existing LCD displays but has yet to confirm if the panel will come to new ultrabooks.

If it does, Toshiba’s 13.3-inch Kirabook— with its impressive 2560 x 1440 display — could soon have a battle on its hands.
