Anyone got an elderly relative using a tablet? Low or high resolution?

Interesting! Well the IPad 2 has a resolution of 1024x768, and this is what I'm familiar with. So your IPad Air (or an IPad 3 or 4) would display things at exactly the same size/proportion as an IPad 2, but with basically 4x the pixels making each pixel up? So more clarity?

Yeah much more clarity. The native resolution of the retina iPads is 2048x1536.

Having played with IPads and Androids, it does incline me more towards IPads unfortunately.

Only issue with iPads is the price. iOS is so easy to use it is very good for older, less technical folk. My father and father in law both have one as their only computer.

Really need to keep it below about £280. I've seen IPad Air (1st gen) for sale for about that though.
