The Apple iPad is one of the best-selling tablets in the world, and the iPad 3 is one of the most anticipated devices from Apple this year. This article explains you about the new features that are to be included in the iPad 3.In a nutshell, the Apple iPad3 will feature a new, thinner and sleeker design, down nearly 20 percent in size compared to the iPad 2. It will also support full touchscreen HD display with a screen resolution of 2048 x 1536.
Apart from that, the iPad 3 will have a lighter battery life, reducing the weight of the tablet. However, the battery is reported to cost 20 to 30 percent more than the current iPad’s battery, which will also have a longer battery life.
It is also expected that the iPad 3 will have a wireless charging technology, which will be able to charge the battery and transfer data wirelessly.
iPad 3 Features:
- Retina Display: Various Apple-centric sources, including the blog 9to5Mac, have compiled rumors over the past few months indicating that Apple is planning on some sort of higher resolution display for the next iPad, possibly of the same quality as the Retina Display currently available in later-model iPhones.
- Improved Camera: The iPhone 4S features an 8-megapixel camera, which could also find its way into the iPad 3.
- More Powerful Processor: The iPad 2 comes equipped with a 1GHz dual-core A5 processor. If Apple’s going to debut a more powerful chip, the iPad 3 (possibly with its higher resolution screen) would be the time to do it.
- Same Screen: During an October 2010 earnings call, Apple CEO Steve Jobs famously derided 7-inch tablets as intrinsically inferior to the 9.7-inch iPad. Now that he’s passed on, Apple executives could certainly reverse course and begin producing smaller screen iPads, perhaps with an eye toward competing more directly with the 7-inch Kindle Fire. Before his passing, though, Jobs almost certainly produced a roadmap for his company’s next few years of operation. In light of that, it seems unlikely that a smaller screen iPad he would have abhorred will make an appearance less than 12 months after his death.
