LG Display Claims Apple Will Release the 'iMac 8K' Later This Year
------------------------------------------------------------------
While it could be a factual error, Reddit points us towards an
interesting comment on the LG Display blog last week that claims
Apple announced it will release a new iMac with 8K display later
this year. Apple, of course, has not made any announcements about
a new iMac since last year, and 8K displays are not expected
until 2016.
"It has become clear that Japan is planning to
launch an 8K SHV test broadcast and then promptly
restructure the UHD service. *Apple has also
announced that they will release the ŒiMac 8K¹
with a super-high resolution display later this
year.* Korea is also preparing to offer an 8K
service demonstration at the 2018 Pyeongchang
Winter Olympics. LG Display displayed a new
beacon of the 8K era by revealing their 98-inch
8K Color Prime Ultra HDTV at CES 2015."
VESA's new DisplayPort 1.4a standard paves the way for future
displays at 7,680 x 4,320 pixels, but Apple has not made any
announcements about releasing a Mac with an 8K display.
Apple's highest-resolution Mac is the iMac with Retina 5K
Display, which has a resolution of 5,120 x 2,880 pixels.
While this report should be treated lightly until further
information surfaces, it still proves interesting that LG
Display would make a public-facing comment like this on its
website. The most likely scenario is that LG will eventually
remove or modify the comment now that it has been put in the
spotlight.
Forget 8K ... just wait for the 64K iMac, you won't be able to see the
pixels even with your nose pressed against the glass. This "K-race" is
almost as silly as the "mega/gigshertz race". :-\
