We have a definition, it's ppi, and you need at least 220ppi.

No, it doesn't.
The current 14'' screen is 3024x1964 and the current 16 inch is 3456x2234 (both 254ppi).
The previous generation used about 220ppi displays.
- pedrocr 5y agoThe current 13.3" screens are 1600p, the original Retina displays were also 1800p on 15". Only the last generation is a little higher and still not 4K like in PCs. Apple itself has always branded "Retina" based on angular resolution and not surface density, so viewing distance makes a huge difference.
- 4ad 5y agoNo, their 13'' screens have been 2560x1600 (226ppi) since 2012. You are confused because the nomenclature like 1080p refers to vertical resolution while 4k refers to horizontal resolution.
- pedrocr 5y agoNo to what? I know what 1080p/1600p/1800p is. Here's a direct quote from the Macbook Air tech specs: Retina display: 13.3-inch (diagonal) LED-backlit display with IPS technology; 2560-by-1600 native resolution If 1600p on 13" is not Retina you need to argue this with Apple instead.
