The company has emphasized the quality of the Mini's display in its own marketing materials, saying that "everything looks incredibly crisp and sharp. And since the iPad Mini display has 35 percent more screen area than a 7-inch tablet, everything is easier to read and interact with."Apple can take credit for starting the arms race over pixels.

It was so high that, Apple said, the human eye could not distinguish individual pixels when viewed at a normal distance. In a smart marketing move, Apple called its new screen the "Retina display," and began bringing it to more and more devices. It has since become the signature feature of new products like this year's iPads and MacBook Pros.
