I need a high resolution iPad 2 image (300 pixels or better) for a printed client promotion. Apple used to have high resolution images on their pr website, but they’ve pulled them all in favor of 72 pixel screen images.
Does anyone know where I can get high res iPad 2 images? Feel free to email me instead of posting.

Although that’s a PSD file, it’s only 72 pixel/inch or screen resolution.

Really depends what size you want to use it at. Let us know, and maybe some more pointers in the right direstion.

What are the pixel dimensions? By itself, ppi is utterly meaningless when it comes to defining “high resolution”. I have a Nikon D3. The images it takes are 4,256 x 2,832 pixels. At 300 ppi, that’s 14.186" x 9.44". At 72 ppi, it’s near the size of an aircraft carrier deck. By any measure, it’s high resolution. If I open one of its images in Photoshop, it will tell me that the image is set at 240ppi. I can resize (without resampling) to any pixel density I like, and the image will be made larger or smaller without loss. The ppi is just a “header” in the digital file, a kind of metadata. It is nothing inherent in the pixels themselves. The only thing that matters when considering the resolution of an image is its pixel dimensions (how many pixels) rather than their density (how many to the inch/cm).

Oops. Yep, I missed that. The image size is 3200 x 1984 pixels, so that should work.

You could also try this. Shouldn’t matter what size you need, and they’re pretty detailed from experience: http://www.vecteezy.com/technology/25963-apple-ipad-2

And they’re vector images, so any resolution you like! Make a bus-wrap out of them!

3200 x 1984 pixels at 72ppi IS THE SAME AS 768 x 476 pixels at 300ppi. Your
image scaled to 24% will have what we in the print industry call an
“apparent resolution” of 300ppi.

Actually, Ernie, I have to disagree. If you are measuring pixels, their numbers never change. Their size does, though. So a 300ppi pixel would be 1/300 inch square, while a 72ppi pixel would be 1/72 inch square. At 72ppi, a 3200 x 1984 image would measure 44.44 x 27.556 inches. At 300 ppi, that same pixel dimension image would measure 10.667 x 6.613 inches.
And THAT is welcome to print, because you want to have 1.5 to 2.0 x the print screen resolution at the reproduction size to make a smooth halftone of a continuous tone image. Magazines are ~ 150lpi (lines per inch) and fine lithography is usually ~ 175lpi, so 300 ppi is usually a good choice. Ah the fun days of working all this out when I used to do a lot of digital prepress for advertising and graphic design…
Who’s seen my proportion wheel!?

In my defense I will point out that I ran my own very successful digital
prepress firm for 12 years in addition almost 25 years as a print designer
and prepress consultant. But, whatever

Sorry, Ernie. That wasn’t so much directed at you (to point out the mistake) but to clarify what you wrote so the next person reading it (without the benefit of your years of experience, and thus, ability to understand what you meant) would not carry forward the misapprehension that pixels are somehow fungible.
I sincerely hope you don’t take that personally in any way, it was not meant for that.

I know, and forgive me for being snippy. I have lived long enough to be a
master of my art, and then completely irrelevant of it. Pay no attention to
my grumbling
