The display on the ARM-based Microsoft Surface has a resolution of 1366x768, giving it a pixels per inch (ppi) rating of 208. The Windows 8 Pro model takes that one step further with a full HD resolution, presumably 1920x1080, though Microsoft hasn't confirmed full specifications of either Surface model.
With little known about the display of the Surface it's tough to compare it to the iPad's retina display, which is undoubtedly the best on the market. Microsoft describes the screen on the Surface as a ClearType HD display, though it's not exactly known what this encompasses. The Surface's ppi of 208 is less than the iPad but ahead of many other Android tablets, with the exception of the ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity and the upcoming Acer Iconia Tab A700 (both 224ppi).
