    <p>A few days ago a client asked me if the transition to the iPhone 4s retina display was a difficult one, development-wise.</p> <p>This made me ask myself whether I should have considered iPhones with high resolution dispays even before the iPhone 4 had been announced - creating artwork with higher resolution, preparing codepaths... (while, of course, creating high resolution artwork is never a bad idea, considering its use for marketing, porting to other platforms etc.)</p> <p>Now, with the iPad being around for some months, first rumors of a future iPad with retina display emerge from the depths of the www. And I start wondering - would it make sense to prepare new projects for such an iPad? I'm pretty sure that apple will in fact release a retina iPad at some point in the future, because it would be quite a logical step. So, I guess the important question is "how soon can we expect such a device?". There is much to consider when thinking about that, most of all production difficulties and the impact of a resolution of 2048 x 1536 (if apple sticks to simply doubling the "old" specs) on a mobile devices performance...</p> <p>So, what do you think? Will it pay up to prepare new projects for a retina iPad, starting now? Or do you think the overhead is not worth it, yet?<br> Maybe some of you are already developing with the retina iPad in mind..?</p> <p>I'd be glad to hear some of your thoughts! Thanks alot, guys!</p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong><br> Well, Apple just answered my question. Yes, it was in fact reasonable to consider a Retina iPad..!</p>
