The All New iPad.

After endless speculations Apple have launched the 3rd generation of their tablet , the all new ipad .

Now that's what apple calls it, not ipad 3 or ipad HD only the "New iPad". Anyways , the new iPad comes with a retina display boasting of 2048 x 1536 pixels . That's more pixels than your full HD LCD tv packed into a space smaller than 10 inches. Without a doubt the screen is absolutely amazing with the increased pixel count. Individual pixels cannot be distinguished anymore. The colour gamut has also improved.

Apple has obviously changed the processor of the tablet. It now has the new A5X processor with quad graphics to render all that additional pixels. Apple claims it performs 4X better than Nvidia's Tegra 3 chipset. Another change is the new 5mp primary camera that can record videos in full HD 1080p resolution. The front camera remains relatively unchanged. Dimension wise the new iPad has'nt changed a lot. Its heavier at 662g (ipad2 is 601g) and .6mm thicker. Not so much so that you will notice. But deviating from Apple's typical way of making the everything thinner and lighter. The tablet also has 4G+LTE connectivity. Apple also claims that the new tablet has 10 hrs of battery life. Now with the new iPad Apple has improved upon its existing tablet . But it cannot be called as revolutionary in any way . As we are accustomed to calling Apple products. Its in no way less innovative either. We will  just have to wait and see how this tablet manages to win the market.
