Apple is taking a different tack from its rivals, moving away from creating slimmer and slimmer gadgets – it's planning to release a thicker iPad 3 with better specs and an iPhone 5 with a bigger screen.

电讯行业现在往往追求创造出更加纤薄的产品，而苹果公司却反其道而行之，计划推出的iPad3将比从前更厚，比便装备更好的配置。同时，iPhone5也将配有更大的显示屏。

If the current rumours are true, Apple has decided to add a super bright 2048x1536px Retina Display in the iPad 3, lit with dual LED-light bars, at a cost of an extra 0.7mm added to the body. The iPhone 5 is also set for a size boost, jumping up 8mm in length to house a rumoured 4in screen.

如果这一传言属实，苹果将会给iPad3配有2048x1536像素的超高分辨率的显示屏，并搭载双灯管背光系统，因此iPad3的厚度将会增加0.7毫米。传说，iPhone5也将“增肥”，长度将增加8毫米，并配有4英寸屏。
