McLaren has unveiled their latest supercar called the "P1" at the Paris 2012 Motor Show. P1 is another F1 inspired name from McLaren which represents the pole position on the F1 starting grid. The new vehicle is 90% production ready. Final specification have not been released by McLaren but they did say the "ultimate supercar" will have a power-to-weight ratio of over 600bhp per tonne when it goes on sale in late 2013. This would suggest the P1 is much lighter than the MP4-12C and may have a total output of around 720bhp. I'm drooling already. Can't wait to see how the P1 fairs on the Nurburgring!
HTC announced the their latest device called the "Butterfly J". This new phablet will have a 5" display which will feature 1080p screen resolution based on their new "Super LCD 3" tech. As with HDTVs, higher resolutions are not always better. Factors such as distance to the screen, display size and resolutions all play a role in how your eyes perceive sharpness. Most people will not be able to see screen resolutions past 229 pixels per square inch. The iPhone 5 with its "Retina Display" produces 326ppi while the Samsung Galaxy S3 produces 306ppi. Unless you have better than 20/20 vision or your eyeball pressed up against the screen you'll hardly notice the benefits of 1080p. Screen real estate is the most beneficial of higher res screens for more icons to display. Something to think about the next time a friend brags about their new phone or HDTV.
