LG’s CEO has already confirmed that his company is <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2011/07/22/retina-display-coming-to-apples-next-ipad-according-to-lg-display-ceo/">working on Retina Displays for Apple’s iPad 3</a>, but a new report from <em>The</em> <em>Korea Times</em> on Monday suggests that LG is also working on displays for the iPhone 5 and a smaller iPad. An unnamed source that was only identified as an LG executive told <em>The Korea Times</em> that Apple will add a 4-inch Retina Display to the iPhone 5, a half-inch larger than the current screen. In addition, the executive said LG is working with Apple to introduce a new iPad with a smaller 7.35-inch screen. We’ve heard plenty of rumors suggesting that Apple is hard at work building a brand-new fully redesigned iPhone 5 with a <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2011/10/02/iphone-rumors-iphone-rumors-and-a-few-more-iphone-rumors/">4-inch screen and a teardrop design</a>, so the report is not overly surprising. Also, a rumor surfaced in October that suggested Apple was building an “iPad mini” with a 7.85-inch screen, which is a bit larger than what <em>The Korea Times </em>reported. Apple <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2011/11/03/next-ipad-to-launch-in-march-real-ipad-3-coming-in-q3-2012/">could release its next iPad in March</a>, but that model is expected to offer only marginal upgrades over the iPad 2; a fully re-designed unit is expected during the third quarter of 2012. The<a href="http://www.bgr.com/2011/10/18/iphone-5-on-schedule-for-summer-launch/"> iPhone 5 could land as soon as this summer</a>.<span id="more-112544"></span>
