Now, I would like to share my own opinion about the most anticipated technical products in 2012 with top 8 options for your reference. Check the bellow content to get to know the Top 8 most anticipated technical products of 2012.

Apple iPad 3

If the gossip is true, the next-generation iPad will be a sight to behold. Its most compelling (alleged) feature: a 2048-by-1536-pixel display, offering four times the resolution of the iPad 2’s 1024-by-768-pixel screen and better user experience for users to watch HD videos on iPad. Considering that the iPad and iPad 2 each shipped in the spring, if the Apple Company maintains its tablet upgrade cycle, the iPad 3 is not far away.

Microsoft Windows 8

Microsoft’s next operating system promises to be everything. Designed to power both tablets and conventional PCs, Windows 8 is ambitious and risky. The new OS will feature the touch-oriented Metro interface that we first saw in Windows Phone 7, which means Microsoft’s “reimagined” flagship OS will be the first Windows version since the iconic Windows 95 to revamp, rather than simply tweak, the desktop interface.

Apple iPhone 5

Apple just released iPhone 4S last October as the successor of iPhone 4 with quite wonderful voice-recognizing personal assistant Siri and an excellent 8-megapixel camera. With the edge-to-edge design, the iPhone 4S provides even better video enjoyment for users to watch watch HD Blu-ray/DVD on iPhone 4S. The next generation of iPhone is firmly believed to be more suitable for HD video enjoyment. The rumored curved glass screen and daring teardrop shape are apparently still on the drawing board over in Cupertino. Assuming that the iPhone 5 arrives in 2012, it just might pack the visual wallop that Apple watchers have been waiting for.

Quad-core Mobile device

Speedy dual-core processors, such as Apple’s A5 in the iPad 2 and iPhone 4S, will soon be old news as even faster quad-core chips migrate to the mobile market. Chip maker Nvidia says that smartphones featuring its quad-core Tegra 3 processors may arrive in the first half of 2012. And quad-core tablets, such as the Tegra 3-powered Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime, are already here. Qualcomm, meanwhile, says that its quad-core Snapdragon chips will appear in Windows 8 tablets in the second half of 2012.

Xbox 360 update

Will the next-generation Xbox arrive in 2012? The latest rumors from reliable sources, including Supersite for Windows editor Paul Thurrott, say the next Xbox is slated for a 2013 debut. Until then, Xbox fans will have to be content with software upgrades, including an Xbox 360 dashboard update sporting a Windows 8, Metro-style interface.

Android 4.0 phones

The latest version of Google’s mobile operating system is already generating buzz in the mobile world. Android 4.0 offers a lot to love: a polished interface, improved multitasking, better search tools, and the intriguing-yet-gimmicky Face Unlock and Android Beam.

Plus, a fresh batch of Android smartphones (led by the Samsung Galaxy Nexus) and a new generation of tablets (including the Asus Eee Pad Transformer 2) are designed specifically for Android 4.0, also known as Ice Cream Sandwich.

Windows Phone 7 Platform

The Microsoft platform is very strong in the enterprise space because of the management and security features released in 6.x. Windows Phone 7, released in 2010, will be a leap forward for Microsoft, with strong hardware and UI standardization better integration with social networks. Nokia’s adoption of WP7 should also help spur sales, and WP7 handsets such as the Samsung Focus S are getting good reviews. The next 12 months may decide whether Windows Phone 7 handsets succeed or go the way of the Zune.

Sony Playstation Vita

Sony’s Vita, announced last year, includes a five-inch display, dual analog sticks for game controls and a quad-core processor. The Vita will come in two models, one version with Wi-Fi only while the other version with Wi-Fi and 3G cellular connectivity. The detailed price levels of both two versions have been confirmed online: the version that includes both Wi-Fi and 3G offers two AT&T data plans: $15 for 250 megabytes a month or $25 for 2 gigabytes a month, while the Wi-Fi-only device will cost $250, and the 3G-plus-Wi-Fi one will cost $300.

These are the top 8 most anticipated technical products in 2012. Of course, there are still many other advanced tech products which also are worthy of waiting and longing for. What are you looking for this year? You can share with us your own opinions in the comment part.

True or Rumor: iPad 3 with up to 2048*1536 high resolution screen display

After the release of Apple iPhone 4S, the next most anticipated Apple produce might not be the next generation of Apple iPhone, but the iPad 3, which is rumored to be out in the first quarter of next year, which, absolutely, would be a false guess. The next generation of iPad is said to feature with a 10-inch large screen display. And to make the large screen display comfortable with users’ eyes, the iPad 3 screen display resolution must be high enough, which has been proved to be a big step for tablet and a big challenge for manufacturers. The latest rumor from CNET shows that the iPad 3 would feature with a 2048*1536 pixels high resolution screen display, which has really excited all iPad fans, even though still needs to be confirmed. If this is real, the visual effect on iPad 3 would be showed just as bellow:

Apple has always been trying to have a Retina Display-like resolution on the iPad 3, according to the source who is in contact with Asia-based suppliers who, in turn, are familiar with Apple’s plans. Apple makes a definition for Retina Display as having “pixel density is so high your eye is unable to distinguish individual pixels.” The iPhone 4S features a 960×640, 3.5-inch display that packs in 326PPI. At about 12 inches from the eye, this is the most amount of detail the human retina can see, according to Apple. If the iPad 3 would get such high screen resolution, the iPad 3 would absolutely become the best choice for you to watch HD Blu-ray on iPad. Also, playing HD videos on iPad 3 would be an enjoyable experience for you in your spare time.

However, such high resolution screen display might still be a big challenge for manufacturers. “They have production plans for 2048×1536 displays. Starting in November. But those are only plans at this point,” said the source, referring to LG and Samsung.

Thus, whether we can get 2048*1536 pixels HD screen display on iPad 3 or not is still in question. It still needs to be confirmed. Stay tuned for more information about iPad 3.

Apple iPad 2 tops in Tablet Display Technology Shoot-Out with Motorola Xoom and Asus Transformer

The DisplayMate Technologies Cooperation has just released a new display technology shoot-outs result of three popular tablets: Apple iPad 2, Motorola Xoom and Asus Transformer. Although the second generation of Apple iPad has been considered to be inferior in the pixel density when compared with the Motorola and Asus products, the DisplayMate still place Apple iPad 2 the champion among these three tablets, upon the comparison of various elements including: Screen Reflections, Brightness and Contrast, Colors and Intensities, Viewing Angles, Display Backlight Power Consumption, and Running Time on Battery.

To get the detailed information about this test, you can check: Tablet Display Shoot-Out Comparison Table.

By counting out the champion of these popular tablets, DisplayMate also provides some anticipations and suggestions for the next generation of tablet display, which can also be available via the link above. When mention the iPad 2 and tablet display, it is unavoidable that we would talk about the next generation of Apple iPad, the iPad 3 release date and specs, especially its screen display, which has gained so much attention from users.

The latest rumor on iPad 3 would adopt an AMOLED display which would offer improved brightness and reduce reflection and power consumption. Still, other rumors said that the iPad 3 would get a 3D display with 2048*1536 pixels high definition screen resolution, which would boast four times the pixel density of the current model. A rumor that the iPad 3 would get a Retina Display with a release of this year also attracts great attention. The iPad 3 might get a Retina display, but it is hard to believe a release within this year.

iPad 2 screen display has been considered as a great success among many popular tablets like Motorola Xoom and Asus Transformer. The iPad 3 screen display would at least not disappoint users when compared with other tablets of the next generation.

Rumored iPad 3 to Be Ready for Production, May Have a Place in This WWDC

A media report from Taiwan reported that Apple had confirmed the accessory suppliers of iPad 3 and the related accessories have been ready for production. The Apple iPad 3 may make an appearance in this WWDC.

When other tablet companies are suffering from the material shortage due to the Japan earthquake, Apple has snapped up materials to ensure an abundant supply of materials for the peak period and planed to add new functions like 4G capability and other advantageous features to compete other tablets in market. And according to the news about iPad 3 on this WWDC, many people have been keeping skeptical about this. The iPad 2 has seen a 2.5 million sales in March alone. Though said to be a transition product to iPad 3, iPad 2 has got great attention and achievement for Apple. The great sale of iPad 2 is one of the main reasons for the dissenting voice. And another reason is about the product circle from Apple. Many people said that report of iPad 3 on this WWDC doesn’t meet the product circle of Apple product. That seems to make sense.

Still, many other people thought they got hint from Jobs’ words that “2011 is a year of iPad 2”. This could be a very good reason for people to guess no iPad 3 would appear this year.

Anyway, it would not be false that Apple has confirmed the accessory suppliers for the next generation of iPad. What we could do now is just wait for the latest news for the iPad 3.
