Apple iPad 3 Wi-Fi + Cellular - User Reviews

  • Battery replacement it's the only cure

  • Yeah, Samsung payed trolls were so active back in 2012/13... so many people purchased crappy android tablets just because of the troll work .. basically they wasted their money on Samsung and CO

  • ok but who cares

  • Yeah agreed mind too

  • go to app store u can download....

  • All of you guys out there who praised Asus' and Sumsung's crappy tablets back in 2012-2013, now see the difference huh? The iPad 3 is WAYYYY faster and far more amazing, even in 2018. Hope you guys now know that numbers don't matter when it comes to an Apple product. The performance speaks for itself, even after these many years. Screw the others. Apple for life!

  • Please Help! My iPad 3 has been overheating recently. The battery drains quickly too. I charged it until 100% this morning, and when I came back from work, it drains to 7%. Any suggestions, please?

  • How to use whatsapp "officially" on ipad 3?

  • You can check on frequencycheck.com to see if your network uses the same frequency supported by your ipad

  • Maybe your provider does not support LTE band, or your iPad LTE frequency bands are not compatible with the ones from your service provider

  • Sure

  • Please i just got an ipad 3 wifi+cellular. Can I use WhatsApp with it?

  • I have purchased an Apple iPad 3 Wi-Fi + Cellular, so why it not support Network 4G / 4G LTE bands? Please let me know about this. Thanks

  • You might compare the specs and think it was faster, but in really, it's the opposite. The only way you would actually be able to understand is if you have both iPad's and compare the speed (but someone on YouTube might have done that already). And it really is thicker and heavier than the iPad 2.

  • Mate... are you not the smartest? Ipad 3 is much better, Ipad 2 are extremely slow and crappy compared to ipad 3 specs... and usage

  • This device makes me mad when people praise it over the iPad 2. The iPad 3 is thicker, heavier and slower than the iPad 2 YET NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT THIS!!! WHY?! Yes, it does have a retina display, but be honest, would you REALLY sacrifice speed, thickness and heaviness JUST FOR A RETINA DISPLAY?!

  • if i want to get a good ipad which ipad should i get

  • does it have voice calls?

  • AndyD... u mean u say u were Ble to receive SIM. Cals on ur iPad..??... If yes... So should I upgrade my iPad 3 to os 8...???...

  • U mean to say u were able to receive regular SIM calls on ur I pad??... Of yes.. so should I upgrade to ops 8..??... On my iPad 3

  • Very fast with the newest update, not bad for two years!

  • When OS8 came out, the feature of receiving calls on an iPad was meant to be only on version 4 or above. but it actually worked on version 3 and even version 2. i did a lot of testing and it was stable. I contacted Apple and spoke to a manager and he was surprise that it work as he tested with me. I said if they brought out an update and this feature was taking away from version 3 or 2 it would be wrong. So OS 8.1 came out yesterday and what have they done, removed the feature. I rang them and they said that you can't revert back to OS 8, but when the release the Beta version they gave you the option to revert back, so why can they do the same now? Simple answer is they want you to spend more money by buying a new version, this isn't right with something like this, and I've made that clear to Apple.

  • No call using ipad. It has no gsm modem

  • I dont know why cant they have that transparency effect with this device where as the parallax they can. WHY APPLE??

  • my ipad 3g wifi + cellullar have on it no sim.i looked round there is no place to fix my sim.can any one help me where to insert the sim

  • From iPad 3 we can make Video call Please refer below *FaceTime video calling requires a FaceTime-enabled device for the caller and recipient and a Wi-Fi connection. FaceTime over a cellular network requires iPhone 4s, iPhone 5, or iPad (3rd generation) with cellular data capability. Availability over a cellular network depends on carrier policies; data charges may apply. Some features may not be available for all countries or all areas. Click here to see complete list.

  • Celllar means you can access internet from the SIM network. ipad do not have calling features. But it is one of the best device you will have

  • No Flash support in the web browser. How far this disadvantage affects the experience with this device?

  • the problem for ipad 3 is takes 8 to 12 hours for charging!!!!but excellent ipad especially for downloading movies...

  • Cellular means 2G&3G connectivity through the simcard by service provider.

  • Cellular means that you have to insert a sim card whereas wifi means you have to pick a wifi signal to make data calls eg skype

  • LTE 700 MHz Class 17 / 2100 - for AT&T What is the meaning of AT&T Can anyone help me on this Thanks in advance

  • in apple ipad 3 wifi + cellular , i dont understand cellular means calling facility or insert sim in this ipad. what is the use of cellular... please answer me

  • no other phone maker can beat ths brand all hands up to apple excellent software. They can try to compete bt truly they have no match ey always falter along their ideas.

  • First of all, i dont understand why people think that they are OBLIGATED or forced to buy the newest Apples tablet. If you buy iPad G and the very next month Apple releases iPad H, it does not mean that your G is outdated. It is still the same tablet you had last month. Second, why people think that new tablet of some brand is supose to be revolution? Few pixels more, little better cpu or 50grams lighter/5mm does not mean that YOU have to change the device. Its called progres, and it goes step at the time. :) Now to topic. I was in dilema about should i go for Xperia Z or iPad. Friend of mine has Z and i really like it. As a metter of fact, her Z made me consider tablets and their real usefulnes. Waterproof, very light and impact resistant tablet is very grateful solution. On top of that, design feels really premium. Downside is Android. I really dislike that OS. It seems to be huge resource drainer, and it seems bad by my personal preferences. Ipad, in other hand, has fairly familiar iOS that i really respect by its smoothness and reliability. I do hate iTunes tho. Other great pros is amazing Retina (hat down to Apple), and great battery life (tho Z has great battery too). Camera aint important to me, nor ultrafast performance since i do not use tablet for gaming. In daily tasks, i really feel no difference between iPads dualcore and Zs quad, 1 and 2 gigs of RAM. Stereo also not important to me. 64gigs internal memory is HUGE pros. My final conclusion: both tablets seems great to me ( i dislike Samsung 10.1 btw), and there is no "better or worse". IT comes down to personal preferences. For me, it was ipad and i have zero regrets. :)

  • I bought it Apple Ipad 3 64gb + Wifi + cellular .............

  • Good

  • Good

  • S

  • ya you can make video calls.

  • Definitely you can make skype call using your 3G or wifi, for gsm call there might be some apps on App Store that would allow you to make call and text.

  • hai, i like to buy i pad mini with rtinal disply with cellular. i want to know that it is possible to make skype call from i pad mini to another tab or pc.. i am waiting for your kindly reply> thankyou

  • Can't call and message...

  • you can't call,its not GSM

  • With iOS 7.0.4 my iPad restart itself while I'm talking to my Mom on Viber twice now. Hope iOS 8 comes soon

  • I want to use my apple iPad 3G wi-fi+cellular. To make it call or as acell phone to reach my baddies and friends Please kindly reply me on [email protected] Remember r this iPad show the network and other data facility but then this?

  • i'm planning to buy an ipad mini wifi cellular or ipad 3 wifi cellular but after reading all the opinions i doubted i thought putting a sim in the slot i can use the ipad everywhere especially places that don't have a 3G yet. just register it on mobile internet promos.. ...and it means, it's no use?...

  • click reset all settings hope this works on your ipad to remove all lags, it worked on my ipad mini and assitive touch will totally lag on the whole ios 7 os so disable it. :)

  • click reset all settings removed lags my ipad mini wifi on ios 7 hope this works!

  • Please my iPad 3 wifi plus cellular new generation , it can not run 4g since I bought it, vpcan anyone help me solve the problem please?

  • I upgraded my iPad 3 wifi-cellular to iOS 7 since 4 days. Lags so much. Lags in screen change, lags very badly in scrolling. Really disappointing and not acceptable from apple. Anybody with similar issues plz share

  • please the problem is with the charger. Please buy an original ipad charger. That should solve that problem

  • You cant really charge it tru a computer thats happen to me too. Maybe try to jailbreak your device. Maybe it will help cause when u jailbreak you can have the features like you can connect two or three bluetoot devices at the same time. Keyboard, headset. And you can also connet usb flashdisk, ,mouse via usb connector after you jailbreak the device. So maybe its a solution.

  • I really prefer the note and tablet from samsung when it comes to the productivity, multitasking dept. but apples ipad has better screen and has a better battery life. Ipad 11,560mah battery compare to note 10 or tablet that has 7k to 8k mah. Productivity and multitasking is really an advantage but if you do those multitasking ull definitely need a bigger battery life to use it all day.i dont want to plug my decvice to an outlet allday. Thats the advantage of ipad. More browsing hours more playtime. Even though ipad didnt have all the multitasking but on the other side it lets u use the gadget a day or two. For more productivity for ipad. I suggest jailbreak your device so that u can use all of the hiiden features of the device same with the android rooting process.and for those who are complaining that they cnt make a call. Did apple said that this is a phone?this is a tablet. Thats why they sell diff device that can make a call wc is the iphone.ryt?and also you can make a call using apps. Therefore i really like samsung note or tab more but i choose ipad because of the battery life.overall both note and ipad are good devices

  • I have an ipad3 4g model.with ios6.1.3 when i connect the charger it appears notcharging in screen ...//any solution for it ????????

  • i have both ipad 3 wifi+cellular and samsung tab 10.1. based on experience if you want to have sms, read and write document, using functionality as pc, easy file manipulation go for samsung tab, its wifi and cellular function would not let you down, except that it is sometimes laggy, the screen quality not so much. but if u just need that extra responsiveness and screen quality, go for the ipad3, but the problem is, u cnt use word processing, sometimes flash videos won't work, you cnt use sms to a normal cellphone... this is really frustrating when you want to register for unli call or txt, or unli internet, promise u cant, ucant even call to a regular land line using cellular function. no there is no cellular function. u may have cellular data though but it must be postpaid. prepaid it wont do you any good. regret that i bought an ipad, coz i only use it over wifi, without wifi its totally shit... used only for games... i prefer to use my samsung...

  • hello guys,, please i wanna ask a question

  • This product was Good but Price expensive.

  • The only problem i encountered with this ipad 3 is its weight and home button. Weight is pretty much a small issue, but the home button, arrgggg it's frustrating when it does not work at some times. But overall, ipad is great tablet, simple and easy to use. I suggest you learn more of icloud and itune syncing cause if you're new, it is a pain in the ass, but as soon as you'll get used to it, you'll loce it

  • does ipad3 have document editing property? and if i will buy what do you recommend galaxy note 10.1 or ipad3 ?

  • I have been using Ipad 3,just upgraded to Note tab,it is really good but comparing to Samsung Note Tab 10.1 is such a huge mistake,Note is much better with clarity and performance in every aspect,i think it is best you compare it with Samsung galaxy tab 2,which is very good as well,Samsung does magic and products are way cheaper compare to Apple products.

  • In iPad 3 you can't send SMS or receive SMS . I love iPad and galaxy tab but the truth galaxy is freindly user. In iPad you will like the touch pad

  • In layman's language, a 3G service gives you more mobility because it gets the internet from a SIM card which you use on your cell phone. Wifi coverage is from a wifi access point installed at home or airports or else where. From a wifi access point you will get coverage upto a maximum of 150-200M (provided with no obstructions).

  • cellular vs wifi in the simplest form of explanation? Ipad wifi + cellular = You can connect to wifi (if available) and when you have a data plan (Carrier/sim card installed) you can use the internet WITHOUT the use of wifi and also you can share your internet thru personal hospot option (carrier dependent) Ipad wifi only = needs wifi for internet.

  • sir how ipad 3 ,s music quality? is it good thing to buy or anyone tablet?

  • Ipad=game,note10.1=work.This depand on your age.Note is for students and ipad is for gamers.Think before you buy.

  • Does the new upgrade have siri

  • Hi i would like to know i bought new ipad 3 wi fi +cellular then i didnt have sim i dont know what sim should i used in order can receive calls and text messages. However today i buy sim card the samevwhat i used in my iphone 4s it appears 3g not 4g and it says ipad 3 is isnt 3g but 4g?

  • Hi.. can you please explain in layman language that whats the benefit of cellular and 3G over simple wifi? plzzz

  • Cellular FaceTime is avalabile on this device :)

  • Music is fine its mostly effected by the ear/headphones you use. I use mine for web browsing, video netflix + inbuilt media, silly games. To be honest i would get the Note Tab instead but i couldn't get hold of a 3G one anywhere.

  • hi, I wanted to buy ipad 4 for for reading books,browsing and listening music. is m right in my decision? and how many average apps I have to purchase as I am an average user. pls reply and how the music quality with headphones. I used sony phones for music

  • Well definitely the price varies in every model or extra features on a certain product. And when it comes to definition of which is best, I guess it will depend on the users on how a certain computer gadget suits his/her needs ;-)

  • Do iPad 3 and iPad 4 have same price in every country?And which event defines the best tablet and the best phone?

  • Download the apps called TALKATONE in iTunes store in order to make phone call in your iPad 3 WiFi + Cellular. Goodluck ;-)

  • I guess you can make a phone call in iPad 3 + Cellular. Someone from this group suggested to download an Apps in iTunes in order to make phone call.

  • iPad 3 is without the SIM Card slot and iPad4 is with SIM Card slot, meaning you can still connet even without a wi-fi signal and since you have a SIM card in your iPad, al you need is a load or a subscription for internet purposes. Both iPad 3 and 4 are considered the NEW iPad. I guess, you can still make a call by using an application just browse it in iTunes store.

  • Pls wat does d +cellular mean..does it mean we can make n receive calls wit d ipad?

  • I want to buy iPad... Can anybody tell me what's the difference between iPad 3 and iPad 4? Which one is better??? Kindly guide me

  • NO, you can surf the internet and use it for emails and social media communications.

  • iPad is excellent for reading e-books (in pdf, chm, epub and iSilo formats) and listening music. But you will need to purchase chm reader and iSilo reader from apple store. Pdf & epub are default readers in iBooks (already installed on iPad.

  • NO, you can not use it as a mobile phone

  • Isn't anyone having a pink tint issue on their ipad 3. I have it on mine and underwent 2 replacements. The 1st replacement had the worst pink tint among all the ipads I have had so far. Now the 2nd replacemnt finaly came by a few days a go, but unfortunately, it does have a light pink tint on it. I have contacted Apple and requested for a refund. They are looking into it and requested me to send an image of the pink tint issue, which I did. I would know more info on what next, by Monday. Here in India the refund policy is different and difficult. Let's see. Cheers!!

  • This Tablet is amazing in evey possible way, glad i dumped Endroid and bought the iPad

  • Good news for those who upgraded to IOS 6 but lost their pre-install YouTube player. It is time for u to download a new version of U-player which customize only for Retina iPad & iPhone 5 user. Go to App store now & download free ( Jasmine - YouTube Client by Morrissey Exchange Pty Ltd). This new U-player produce a Full HD video image on ur new iPad. Super video quality that i didn't expect it can ever produce. At last, Apple did hear our voices & did compensate us a high image quality YouTube player. Like what i say, wait for Apple to solve all problems that user face after upgrading their IOS to version 6. Esp. the lost of google map over the new Apple map. Just wait for official announcement & don't try to download back to IOS 5. Unless u want to kill ur device.

  • no you can't. the cellular feature is an indicator only that you can use a sim card with it for data connection.

  • no, you can not use the ipad for text messaging or calls.

  • yh man cant u see cellular its ipad 3 wifi+cellular

  • Can I make and receive call with iPad 3 .pls this is very important !

  • Do not try to downgrade ur IOS 6 to recover the older version of IOS 5. This will only kill ur device. There isn't any official recovery downgrade for IOS 6 from Apple iTunes. Those YouTube clips on IOS 6 version downgrading are found to be untrue. Many ppl found their device having error & crash after doing so. Yes indeed, those clips show u an easy 10 sec countdown to make a recovery backup on iTunes but it won't work at all. It only work on IOS 5 downgrade but not on IOS 6 as it is a still a Beta version. Sorry for who really wish & wanted to downgrade back to their older version of IOS 5 are going to be disappointed. This incl me who is part of the IOS 6 victim. Let pray & hope that Apple will officially make an announce to resolve this problem.

  • For those who find their iPad battery drain even faster after upgrading the new IOS 6. I'm sorry that it can't be help as I'm facing that problem too. The only way to keep ur battery life is to delete away those useless & unwanted app that ask u to install during the IOS 6. This will only keep a 5% extra on battery usage performance. Better than none. Final advice again, don't upgrade to IOS 6 version unless u are as dumb as I am.

  • For those who cry over their lost per-installed YouTube player. I can only say try to install the iPhone YouTube version to get a better quality video streaming with no restriction & Ad. On the App Store, indeed there is a free U-player name as HD WorldTube. It has many restriction on video searching & streaming. Many video clips findings are restricted. It does App crashes too & quality are bad too. Still the older IOS 5 U-player better. There is another U-version that can fairly match the older version but are not to be name. I'm sorry for that. Hope that Apple will resolve this problem and compensate to user who have lost their free pre-installed YouTube. Q: Who want an iPad without free pre-installed HD/HQ YouTube player?

  • Warning to all ipad user. Do not upgrade to IOS 6 ,it is still a Beta version. It won't give u any exciting features but it delete ur original per-installed YouTube player. It will only slow down ur device performance causing some of ur application crashes. Many user become a victim as I'm one of them. Many ppl tries to downgrade back to IOS 5 but in vain. Many loyal user now cries for help & curse Apple for not allowing them to recover & downgrade their version back. As a victim of those, I only pray Apple will resolve the problem & gain back user's trust on their product. For those who lost their YouTube over the upgrade version, I can only say Sorry to them. Though u can get free U-player on App Store but it won't perform well as compare to the older version on the IOS 5. Sorry for me & all other loyal user.

  • The new YouTube app is in the App Store.

  • I like Apple Ipad with 15 Inch, 2gb ram....?

  • I have a relative who owns one and I have used it over long periods of time without noticing any change in temperature.

  • After iOS 6.0, will iPad 3 be able to make video calls over cellular network?

  • Do not upgrade to IOS 6. It will only downgrade ur content that u own on IOS 5. Bad Apple, it erase the free YouTube that has been installed on the IOS 5. Now, I can't watch my fav YouTube anymore unless I go n purchase. Bad Apple, it only expect u to pay n buy it.

  • use "bridge" from cydia

  • does it really get hot? and which is better, ipad 2 or ipad 3 ?? thnx :)

  • ,.bought samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 p5100 last month,. i compared it to the new ipad, almost the same specs,. but i rather have this GT 2 10.1 P5100 than the new ipad,. easier to use

  • i pad 3 is power than tab 10.1

  • Update: With regards to the Pink tint issue on my ipad, I have now been offered a replacement for it from Singapore. Would look into that as they are not willing to refund it. So Apple have arrange to pick up the ipad from my home in India and a new ipad would be shipped to me from Singapore. Hope this is a good ipad. Cheers!!

  • But in my country no replacement for new

  • i'm not a samsung or an apple fan. you can call me third party outsider. there are negative comments said about samsung phones and about apple iphones, but based on what i've read, apple never made any hardware on iphone or on any apple products it sold..would you call this leader in innovation.. take a deep breath and think, apple products are made in china, no china no apple, period.

  • Yes the green/ pink tint issue is a serious concern on the ipad 3. How to notice it? Well it all over Google? You can search and check how to notice it. But if you still want to know in simple words, itz like this. When you turn on the ipad and in places where itz suppose to have a white background, like browser or mail clients, you would notice a pink tint there. My ipad has this issue and now I am going thru a second replacement. This would come directly from Singapore. So letz see how it goes. I hope I get a good ipad. Cheers!!

  • May I Mack A Call By It ??!!!??

  • No Unfortunantly, be a great accessory to have

  • Please some one help me buy ipad 3 or Galaxy tab 2 10.1 please help im to hesitated

  • Can ipad 3 wi-fi + cellular have the power to make word documents? exel, power point and anything just like a laptop can do? If not, i rather buy a laptop. And beside that it can be used as cellular phone you need apps to able to used the feature. I thought when i buy this gadget i simply dial a number and get connected.

  • Yes, you can use this instead of a laptop, and it is handy for many people. The only thing you can't do is play a CD or a DVD. If you have things to type regularly, then you will still need a laptop, or you could purchase a keypad for your tablet and use... But small screens can tire your eyes. cheers.

  • Nice gadget..

  • yes

  • Good

  • It depends what do you need from the iPad ..u can almost do everything in general like browsing internet , chatting , watching YouTube , checking emails , etc.. , but laptop could be used for extra things , since windows os support all office and cad & designing apps While all pads in general not only iPad is for limited functions comparing with PCs

  • Can we use this as a laptop??? somebody help!!

  • i have this

  • Use the controller headphones to make a call and install the calling app from the APP store....

It's just so annoying that I have to power off every time after I play game or I could not work with other application. Hac anyone met the same problem? I would appreciate very much if anyone can give me an answer.

  • Apple has amazing OS and it called iOS, u will find the stability and how smooth in every sense of it. Just do a little thing like swipe, scroll, pinch and compare with other Android device. u'll find differences :)

  • Agreed I've had mine for 2 months now and I love it. I haven't had the problem of any slow down though even with every app open. Maybe I'm just lucky haha. Great buy though

  • Honestly speaking I'd say you were a troll who'd never even seen an iPad. There are more free apps specifically for the iPad than there are total apps that are android tablet specific (free and paid). Every tech blog (even android centric ones like xda developers) have articles on them bemoaning the lack of android tablet apps. And how difficult they are to find and when you do find them, how poor they are compared with iPad apps. The screen on the new iPad is fantastic to look at. And who wants to make phone calls on a 10 inch tab. The Samsung 10.1 3g doesn't allow phone calls either.......

  • ipad3 wi-fi + Cellular support facebook games like farm ville and poker???

  • only two quad core mobile samsung galaxy s3 or htc one x

  • I just bought Ipad3-4G with 64Gigabyte. I my opinion even it said 4G you cannot make phone call the way Samsung Galaxy 7.7, and super amoled looks more colorfull than Ipad3 and free Ipad applications is not as many and as good as free application from android. Don't ever think that you can make call the way Samsung Galaxy 7.7 honestly speaking

  • HTC One X Chipset Nvidia Tegra 3 CPU Quad-core 1.5 GHz GPU ULP GeForce

  • Grameen MircoSim you can use 100% sure

  • I have the new ipad 4g and its great..worth the price..better to have this than ipad 2..features and display appearance are all fantastic..

  • I am pretty mch sure NTC or Ncell sim will wok perfectly as long as iPhone 4 was working purely Ncell. So if u fancy, then go for it. its really get gadget.

  • Ipad3 wifi+4g has also gps chip and ipad3 wifi doesn't

  • Ipad3 wifi+4g has also gps chip and ipad3 wifi doesn't

  • There is nothing which can be compare with apple products... i just love it.. i just want to say ipad3 is awesome when ios6 out it will be unstoppable .... i am noticing apple haters are posting many rubbish things... i just want to say them they don't have eyes to see the truth and don't know how cool apple products are.. so apple haters get lost from this blog and post on another blogs. sorry for being rough :P

  • Pls assist - I was in USA using the Ipad 1 but when i came to Mzanzi(RSA) It does not take/ deteact my sim card which i bought in the country. what do you think is the problem. Yes I can use the WIFI but I wanted to use the 8ta sim card on.

  • Ipad 3 is more advanced and clever than Ipad2. Its fast when yr surfing the internet. Both looks the same but the speed is far diffrent. thank you

  • The Apple iPad 3 Wi-Fi + Cellular model has a Micro sim card slot where you can insert a micro sim card and use the 4G or 3G Data services. Additionally you can access the web using Wifi. The Apple iPad 3 Wi-Fi model does not have the option for 4G or 3G services. The only way of accessing the web is Wifi.

  • can any one tell me what is the diffrence between iPad 3 Wi-Fi + Cellular and iPad 3 Wi-Fi?

  • iPad 3 way better i had my share with Android Tablet, BB Playbook but iPad is something else smooth, easy, display & battery life... iPad 3 is the best tablet out there

  • Awesome...

  • Well actually the note 10.1 doesn't come with amoled and in terms of specs the iPad wins it has a better GPU ,screen resolution has the newest Bluetooth and also the app store has more and better applications than the android market. The android market may have more free stuff but the app store has better apps

  • Absolutely wait for Galaxy Note 10inch N8000 with pen, faster, super amole, lighter, cheaper and not depend on apple store to download application.

  • with ios 6 upgrade, can this ipad 3 messaging or calling using our phone number? i want to make sure about this...pls help me to answer my question.

  • Well I think the iPad 3 is better it has a better camera,more powerful processor and with the retina display it will even better but it doesn't support flash so that's the major downside but gaming on it is incredible and when the iOS 6 comes out the iPad 3 will support Siri so I think u should get the iPad 3

  • Don't buy this tablet! After 3hours its heat when i used!

  • Thanks for the information

  • These apple haters commenting everywhere against Apple devices across the web, never make sense..... loosers!

  • hmm its an amazing gadget! the built-in-quality is soo damn awesome.... hats off Apple Inc, u guys deserve being on tOp! :):)

  • Hi, i hav ipad 3 and ipad 1,i m ;lovin it but there is a difference that ipad 3 heats very quickly and high temp.go for ipad 2.

  • I have buy iPad yesterday, I am lovin it❤

  • iPad 3 way better i had my share with Android Tablet, BB Playbook but iPad is something else smooth, easy, display & battery life... iPad 3 is the best tablet out there

  • i bought it and i love it madly, thans Apple

  • Excuse me .. Even the manufacturer don't call it iPad 3 .. So who gave anyone the rights to cal it in that informal way ?? iPad 2 was called like that coz it's the 2nd edition of iPad ( the on w/o camera ) But then this version shall be called iPad Wi-Fi 4G. Because it is the real name of the device.

  • No more Google maps... Here we have iOS 6

  • ipad 3 better

  • Like us

  • iPad can roam worldwide on GSM/UMTS networks. In countries without compatible 4G LTE networks, the new iPad will operate on GSM network technologies such as HSPA+ and DC-HSDPA. When you travel internationally, you can use a micro-SIM card from a local carrier.

  • No. Like sth that happened in Australia.

  • Does IPad 3 cellular + wifi accept any sim from any cellular company?

  • it's Brilliant. In every sense of the word.

  • Which one better, iPad 3 or tab 7.7??

  • Like Sims say: "Adi dabla..."

  • Ipad 3 is a failure

  • Why not just open a US account? Takes 5minutes and you have access to all those apps?

  • 11,560 mAh... This is the most powerful number I have seen in the tablet battery today. @@

  • ipad3 is very bad..once u using it about an half of hour,u`ll feel heat at the back..trust me!

  • hate the fact that the best apps are available usa region...this relli sucks!!!!regret buying this over android....the ipad 3 my last ever apple device bcoz they will never address this..

  • whatever features apple gives if you satify you can take because quality is good. resolution battery life and touch screen is fantastic.if you are particular for these you can go for this otherwise drawbacks are numerous. 1. no flash back 2. you can not even send text message. who bothers for message trough internet via 'sms440'.when there is a provision for inserting sim apple could have provided call facility. it is upto customer if they want to use it. 3. apple is so miser they even donot give inbuilt document editor apps. you have to purchase everything. apple propritary iwork could have been given in such a costly gadget. apple is not happy on just making you spent 39000 rs on this pad but it will be happy only if you keep purchasing apps from app store. having a apple item is like keeping a elephant in the house. 4. weight is almost double compare to samsung tab. so i suggest it is for those who has very little marginal utility for rs 20000.( because you can get a tab at 19000 bucks with similar specification with more features barring certain quality on battery life,resolution and touch where apple at present is superb.

  • apple ipad 'tree' hahahahahahahahahahah..tree hilarius..!b

  • Its is AWESOME very very useful...... one should buy it...

  • Rubbish !! Don't waste your money. I have the top of the range 64 gb wifi4g and it is soooooooooooooooo slow, keeps losing apps, spend your money on something else, anything else really. My Galaxy sII is a more capable machine and blows the pad out of the water. I am selling my Ipad on ebay and don't care what i get for the piece of over priced junk.

  • Hi RayMG, can you tell us how to do this? Can you give us the link to the research report? Do i need another device to connect?

  • you should buy it cause it's AWESOME!

  • Are you sure, there is Apple store in Afghanista? I have been living here since years, but never heard there is a store in Afghanistan

  • is it worth it?

  • No you can not use your I pad for calling purpose as like a phone. Only using Internet via data card.

  • Yes, most def. you will pay tax, government audit sales over the internet if Apple is found not taxing they will be penalize.

  • its price here at apple store in Afghanistan is 450$.

  • it doesnt make a regular network phone call :) but its extremely AWESOME !!

  • I want to buy the new ipad online directly from apple store but can somebody tell me wether the price listed on apple site is TAX inclusive or not.

  • can it be interfaced with a laptop using bluetooth tethering?.

  • No you can't :)

  • thats why they make an iphone.....to call??

  • can i use it as a phone?(make n rcve calls).....not skype or voip,i mean phone.?

  • can i call from i pad like a phone ?

  • Norway, you can use Skype or yahoo and other social networking supporting voice & video feature over 3G or wi-fi

  • ipad 3

  • From what one can see, any device with cellular option seems better as the wifi only device has no GPS, wifi hotspot, EDGE and GPRS technology. Why not have a notebook or a laptop, with higher processing power, if thats the case!

  • what is better jailbreak or not?

  • hiee guyss i m confused wether to by ipad2 wifi 3g or ipad3 wifi in india plzz help me

  • Purchase wifi+4g.I bought Ipad 3 wifi+4g 32gb on 4/15/2012 and its awesome. m/dd/yyyy.

  • Go with iPad 3 WiFi + Cellular. Using cellular data packets on iPad will always be an added advantage. It will leverage the core use of iPad. Any day i will favor Go buy iPad 3 WiFi + cellular for its value for money. All the best.. Cheers !!!

  • I was very happy when I first had the new iPad on my hands. I didn't notice this at first, but when I took the tablet to my backyard, and my iPhone was able to pick up my router signal without a hassle, and the iPad didn't found the network at all, this issue became a nightmare to me. I've searched for a solution to this situation, A LOT. Finally I had the luck to land on a review of a case from Pong Research. They produce this really interesting cases that have an antennae in between layers of the back cover, which redirects and boost the wifi signals into/from the antennae built-in the iPad, this fixes the new iPad 3 wifi range issues .

  • Great battery life; gorgeous screen;

  • i want to buy apple ipad 3 wifi + 4g(or cellular) by this week.. can u please help me in taking decision? i m confused whether to buy ipad 3 wifi or wifi+ 4G(or cellular).. please reply as early as possible

  • Yeah right! Very opinionated as you, yourself is an apple fanboy! I do have gadgets running on Android and gadgets on IOS and they're pretty much at par with each other.. Of course, there will be a lot of game applications on the IOS for it was way older than the Android but if you want customization on your device then Android is the one for you. However, for those netizens who prefers simplicity and are too lazy to use their brains go for the IOS!

  • i thought the ipad 3 had a quad-core processer, not a dual core processor...?

  • please reply to my questions, its very important , I am planning to get it this weekend so i wanna get all my queries sorted out before getting it.... I wanna buy ipad but I am a little confused , my main purpose to buy ipad is to read and surf and listen to a little bit music on the go. the problem is i have been told that i cant save or transfer large pdf file on ipad and also as there is no flash support i cant watch videos online on ipad like i do on my laptop. please help an early reply would be highly appreciated

  • You can use Dolphin browser

  • I am using this & a galaxy tab 10.1.I am happy with both but i have seen some demo of windows 8 and i think nokia and windows can blow ios and android.So to compete with new windows android and specially ios need a lots of updates.

  • that's a total lie... i use my new iPad while charging, and even though it heats a bit, its not that much uncomfortable.

  • so there's no ipad 3 wifi only?

  • thank you for your reply

  • don't worry about that

  • Hello please help me!!! Is that true that we can't used new iPad while charging, overheating while using. Please reply me. Thank you.

  • iPad 7.85 inch would be interesting idea, if it is true that Apple has one in the queue. It would probably not have retina display. This is 7.85 inch iPad mockup in real size comparison with iPhone and standard iPad

  • can i message(sms) with an ipad wifi +4g

  • are u dreaming??? wait up boy.......

  • can u make an ordinary txt or call with this phone like the iphone? or i will need 3rd party apps?

  • yes u can watch YouTube videos, u need internet connection for that either wifi or cellular data network

  • In my opinion, do not buy a black berry if you are a games and applications fanatic. Sony android phones are not good. Samsung is the best Android manufacturer for me. GNote is just a big smartphone for persons who like to chat and surf the net. SII is best for everything. Their touchwiz UI is the best compared to Sony's TimeScape UI...Iphone 4s is a bad idea. The new Ipad tablet is best tablet out in the market yet. It is really up to you to choose. if you want to mess up with your phone and put many customisations, choose android, probably samsung....if you want a lot of apps and games, and simplicity, go with apple....

  • galaxy sll and ipad.......

  • i love my "the new ipad" i have the 16gm 4 g and i love it!!!! the screen on it is amazing and so is the sound quality. my has not heated up ever and ive had it for about 2 months now. would absolutley reccomend this to any one. the onley bad thing is no flash! i wish apple woulf hurry up and alow flash!!!

  • I prefer my ipad 2 than the ipad 3, the ipad 3 is just expensive for nothing, and the 4G isn't useful because I live in Nigeria. I prefer the ipad 2 and 3.5G is fast and great.

  • Processor is weak compared to recent quad or a15 technology. But the graphics and screen are EPIC!! :D

  • this ipad is really awesome.

  • Hi Guys.I'm bit confused about the latest gadgets. the tabs and the smartphones. Planning to buy one which one would you guys (who already have a hands on experience)suggest me from the the given range of Sony S, Samsung Galaxy S II/III, Samsung Note, or the iPhone 4S / iPad. Also, please tell me something about the BlackBerry. I feel and have also read in the reviews, it's market is squezing. Which one would you suggest. l Look forward to your response here. Thanks.

  • no its not even while playing infinity blade2

  • ipad 3 super heavy from ipad 2 and ipad 2 is good quality from ipad 3 and ipad 1 and ipad 3 stepward from ipad 2

  • izit using long time will get hotter ??

  • if I would get this for free I would sold it and would bring new tablet or another Samsung or HTC phone

  • The iphone 4s in msia, is RM2999 in labuan federal territory of malaysia, the ipad3 wifi+4g is cheaper than that if u mention the price of ipad3 which is rm2500.

  • Apple have finally broken their silence on the new iPhone. iPhone 5 will be getting anounced june 10th and will be in shops june 15th 2012

  • There is nothing about IPAD 3, Nothing New,it's super heavy,same battery life and battery takes twice as long to charge, The IPAD 2 was a big improvement over the 1, the IPAD 3 is a step backward.

  • this ipad same with the other ipad, cannot open youtube 2 or more tab in the same time (no multitasking)

  • Any idea when the new iPad will officially be avialable in India?? Any tentative dates??

  • Nice and Awesome

  • thats great device .......

  • Your statement is contradicting. The first post said: "Flash? HTML5 is the future, my friends." And now you are saying it is the present. Will you make up your mind? How am I supposed to believe you that way?

  • Cooool it's amazing Device ... But it Price is too high

  • very nice apple i phone

  • HTML5 is the present dude. Flash would be dead for months to come

  • Over 65 milions sold till today and you know better than apple what to do,eh ????

  • Hello I'm Crazy i like to get Ipad 1000

  • when i bought my ipad 3 wi-fi + 4g , i ... got a lot information that this ipad never go to work in europe, ...but it is bad , because for myself since first time, i red in all news from apple site that all ipads 3 works . why, and why this happen? because apple never ask before to european apple the correct frequence for 4g. i am fan of apple, but this time , i am too much angry and i wait from apple department a full explanation about this problem. now i am very sad about this situation.

  • Why live in the future when you are in the present? Flash is the present! Go to the future and use your iPad3 there. LOL!

  • Apple has been taken to court in Australia over misleading labeling as 4G, when it is only 4G in USA and Canada. Now the UK and other European countries are also taking Apple to court. One has to wonder just who in Apple marketing does not understand there is a real world outside of the USA. Why cant they just put the full package in one device, all the frequencies, for all countries, allow it to make calls and text, all to have GPS and GLONASS. This is not that difficult so what is the problem Apple. Get it right the first time. You can do this you know!

  • I bought the ipad 3 wifi and so disgusting why there is no gps on it while this one with 4g has.. Nyway, the pad is cool.

  • hey i dont think its good.....better u go for anroide....

  • when html will be a standard there will be several ipad generations ;) so flash is the present

  • While other tablets were fighting to be the thinnest and lightest, this tablet is going backwards like the heavy and thick stone tablet from the ancient time. LOL!

  • It is heavy!

  • Its not that heavy and though it gets hot its bearable dont worry your hands wont burn.

  • -i can't afford to buy it.

  • the newest ipad is about 430 EURO...but it would take my whole month salary to buy it..in RM2500 (Malaysia).. is tht seem fair to us whose in Asia area? so,i would still rather use my old laptop instead.

  • Flash? HTML5 is the future, my friends.

  • I don't like this tablet because there is no flash player.

  • You are absolutely right!

  • 100% agree!

  • It is good but heats up quickly & no flash player

  • i like to watch online movies and stream live videos online.this gadget cant do it like adnroids tablets and phones ,coz apple doesnt run flash player on their devices.my opinion is,this device is good but not better than android OS.

  • its an awesome tab i have ever used

  • it has connection way to pc as the others please?

  • It is not!

  • It sure is heavy for more than half a kilo of weight @652 grams. I don't like heavy tablet!

  • No it's not!

  • siri.lol its just voice dictation

  • If only it had Siri!!

  • Wow! The specs looks awesome and knowing Apple, I think they've really pulled it off! Can't wait to get mine!

  • No it's not!

  • wifi problem solved in my new ipad . do it follow steps 1-setting 2-general 3-network 4-wifi 5-click your local wifi 6-forget your network 7-re set your local wifi

  • I love it.it,s the best tablet

  • You're talking nonsense my dear.

  • Excuse me, I didn't say iTunes is buggy, kindly check my post. What I mean to say is that it is still dependent on iTunes, cannot stand alone to download contents.

  • Your statement 8. "Most people use their headphones, not speakers. You don't need good sound, just some decent sound is all you need." Yes with low end gadgets you don't need good sounds. But this is an expensive device, people are expecting to have good quality sounds not only through the headset, but also the louspeakers is a must. I won't waste my money with lousy loudspeakers gadget.

  • Your statement 4. "What do you expect? 4x Pixels, BIGGER BATTERY, Better cameras and LTE chipsets will of course have to make it thicker and heavier." Many devices now have more than this but they try to make it slimmer and lighter as possible. Apple is just playing with your money. I will not buy this trash!

  • Your statement 11. "Do you think Siri servers can handle 50 million+ devices every second? No, don't think so..." Therefore SIRI is not reliable! I will not buy this trash!

  • apple products made in china?

  • can this ipad3 play divx movies and media?

  • does anybody know when is iphone 5 going to be launched???

  • Liar! Liar!

  • No stereo loudspeakers, I will not buy it!

  • such a big liar =). itune is slow bro especially if you have full app n data , no need to tell lies, maybe yours is fast bc nothing on it LOL

  • Oh yeah??? Then why is it that despite the big battery capacity, it still lags behind battery test against other devices?

  • i agree vit u

  • what i can say. ipad should change it name to isuck. require 6 hours of charging? sucks! but and only can use for 9 hours? sucks! that only thing that i hate with this ipad. but, i impress with the screen resolution. maybe the bigger the hardware (Screen, Quad-core GPU,) take alot of battery.

  • Love those useless descriptions which I don't really give at all... seriously.

  • 1. Love it how people say iTunes is buggy, responsive and hard. It's so straight-forward and fast. Don't know how to use it? Your DUMB. Slow? Get a new computer. I can run iTunes flawlessly on a netbook... 2. Can't comment WITHOUT buying one or at least try. 3. Apple can't put quad-core CPU, not compatible with LTE. This can explain all those HTCrap X phone and ASUS tablets. 4. What do you expect? 4x Pixels, BIGGER BATTERY, Better cameras and LTE chipsets will of course have to make it thicker and heavier. 5. Don't seem to get the message quite right. Adobe quitted development of flash, stupid Samsung wants to continue using Flash. All sites are currently move to HTML5, why do you think Youtube has a trial of HTML5? 6. For what? Mouses? Touch screen is the next-gen of technology, screw mouses. Keyboard? Bluetooth keyboard. 7. And? Consumers don't give. Crapple batteries won't last long. 8. Most people use their headphones, not speakers. You don't need good sound, just some decent sound is all you need. 9. GPS? Most people have smartphones these days which have GPS. They'd rather use that. 10. 64GB is all you need and I seriously doubt anyone would exceed that range. 11. Do you think Siri servers can handle 50 million+ devices every second? No, don't think so... 12. Bigger battery and better display is of course will have to make it hotter. 13. WTF are you talking about? Android troll... You can still use it while charging. Won't charge on slow powered computers. Love it how Android fanboys use these points and can't come up with something else. Drink some Apple Kool-Aid? Seriously, get some new jokes... iOS devices sell BETTER than Android. 500k of android devices activated every day? Answer this for me people..., how many Android devices (types) are there in the world? And I LOVE IT HOW ANDROID USERS DON"T HAVE GOOD EYE-SIGHT. I WAS REFERRING TO THE CELLULAR CHIPSET THEY HAVE IN THE IPAD, NOT ABOUT THE TABLET. No, it's not shouting. I simply made it all capital so stupid Android fanboys can read and get the message right. (which they are failing to do so).

  • Then how do Asus manage to accomplish that with a quad core CPU in a device that is both thinner and lighter (yes, that's right, CPU, not GPU). I have one and confirm that There is no overheating problems at all with the Transformer Prime. I also use an iPad every day and can tell you that the Asus is a far better performer than the iPad 2 or 3 that I get to use daily at work. Apple are going to have to come up with some new excuses because the overheating is ridiculous. As is the additional size and weight. And the fact that thy basically changed nothing else but still call it a new device? What a piece of shit waste of money the iPad 3 really is...

  • no offense but i personally went to the apple store put the ipad 2 right beside the ipad 3 and there is no ABSOLUTE difference between the resolutions they look the same....

  • No, only dictation.

  • I had my ipad 2...a relative from abroad has an ipad, I been using her ipad...after a week of using it, she had acknowledged me that hers is an ipad3...too bad I thought it is an ipad2, too...there is no big difference with the two devices...if you will unknowingly use both devices at the same time, you'll say that they are just same model... =(

  • front camera is a low only vga..also it will burn hole in the pocket..dont go for it.....

  • good.

  • Y'all know this is the best cellular chipset out there in the world? I bet no other phone/tablet carries GSM, HSPA, DC-HSPA, CDMA EV-DO and LTE in one chipset. So don't blame Apple for not having LTE compatible with your carrier. And hey, at least you still have HSPA/DC-HSPA

  • 11,560 mAh? That's enough battery to run a plane engine for a day, and after that there will be enough to complete all 4 Angry Birds games!

  • not bad

  • A high end gadget yet no stereo loudspeakers.

  • No stereo loudspeakers, I don't like this gadget.

  • What?! Loudspeaker is not stereo? I will not buy this gadget!

  • Bell end

  • Apple has never supported flash! And never will.

  • Very gud

  • What?! No flash support in the web browser? I will not buy it!

  • No flash support, I don't like this gadget.

  • they should fix the charging issue for IPAD... it only works with plug point... defuq

  • Think Apple mini7 tab with voice call

  • Well i feel confuse wether to buy new ipad right now or wait for the next gen next year, i use ipad 1. because there is no significant change on the new ipad especially the design, it make me feel abit dissapointed. About what the review say, it's hot after u play for several hours and can't play it when u charge it, well that's something bad for me. I'm a big fan of apple. I use macbook pro, iphone 4, ipad 1., but for this new ipad it really make me dissapointed. Hope the new upcoming mac is better. Keep ur good work apple.

  • This iPad is rubbish! 1. iTunes still required for uploading most of the content 2. Reflective screen struggles outdoors 3. Same CPU as the iPad 2 4. Heavier and thicker than the iPad 2 5. No Flash support in the web browser 6. No standard USB port 7. Non replaceable battery 8. No stereo loudspeakers 9. No memory card slot 10. Can get uncomfortably hot at times 11. No charging while in use

  • thnks

  • Apple claim they are creative and innovative but why the physical design or ipad2 and new ipad is the samne . i regret buying new ipad after use it for about a week. its mostly the same w ipad2. and its true its super hot after i use it more than 90 mins.

  • Ideal screen size is 7" in Tab. Apple must think to Increase range called ipad mini

  • New iPad doesn't show it is charging when connected to a computer, but in fact it is charging. Though the charge is so insignificant, that it is probably the right thing to say that USB charging is not really supported

  • I would like one but I dont really want to give apple my business after I ate at one of there restaraunts and they forgot to serve my the tortilla's I ordered with my breakfast skillet.

  • Hi people, dont you think that the screen of the ipad 3 is kind of pinkish.... I mean the screen of ipad 2 is much better. I agree in the tech specs section, ipad 3 has a better resolution, but check out the screen difference of ipad 2 and ipad 3, you would def find that in the ipad 3, the screen is kind of pinkish..... If Steve Jobs was alive, he would have looked into getting this fixed at the earliest. Let's hope sooner or latter, Tim Cook realizes this. Cheers!!

  • 1. iTunes still required for uploading most of the content 2. Reflective screen struggles outdoors 3. Same CPU as the iPad 2 4. Heavier and thicker than the iPad 2 5.

  • such a shame for UAE apple is the best brand of all samsung LG and all the else are under the shadow of this great

  • No way ipad is the best . the samsung galaxy 10.1 i had a virus on it wh and have had no problems what so everich renderd it usless i oned the ipad one for over a year now with e no problems

  • Is it possible to cook an egg on the new iPad?

  • apple compnys,& other compny all tablets phones, Apple iPad 3 Wi-Fi + 4G, is the best tab phone, in all tables, very cheipest phone,

  • Yes it can use 3G and 2G anywhere in the world

  • You can use with any compatible LTE 4G network.

  • Apple is the best

  • plz can anyone tell me if i get pad 3 wifi + 4G model, can i use it with 2G,3G & 4G network with respective other country's network provider or the 4G is only can be use with AT&T or Verizon

  • even this a new ipad, i think ipad user still have to jailbreak

  • Siri on this new ipad 3 ?

  • I think you don't know the difference between CPU and GPU. CPU is dual core but GPU is quad core. Read the specs properly before commenting.

  • I AGREE!! i'm not upgrading to any apple product just ebcause it doesnt have steve jobs' stamp of approval

  • please don't say bullshit The Retina Display is made By LG company & it's not made by samsung. in the near future we should wait for samsung to make a copy from Ipad3. samsung can just make a copy from the other brands. I hate samsung & I won't buy any samsung products.

  • There is no Quadcore: It is a Dual-core 1 GHz Cortex-A9

  • it wouldn't be an apple product if they didn't include the traditional "faulty home key"

  • this is it? nah.... i don't think this will beat the galaxy tab...

  • 4G only works in the USA for AT&T or Verizon. Such a shame. Not working in UAE Such a shame

  • it's hot because of the quad core GPU just like the hp envy 1st gen laptops. it's OK.

  • other costs are not for it's hardware it's for it's brilliant software rich appstore,icloud.itunes,ibook,newsstand and etc these are feautures you don't have in a droid tablet,or if you have it,they are not as good as ipad one's so you spend money on whole ecosystem and it worth it!

  • Developers losing interest in Android due to fragmentation. iOS widens lead.

  • Does this support Malaysia telecom provider 3g using micro sim card? Is this unlock model sim card?

  • Is the new iPad running hot ? how many problem with this new generation ?

  • iPad 3 is mindblowing and is asusual better than any other tabs

  • Bohoooo. Apple should change their company's name to Apple By Samsung :P

  • I know what it is like... before I got contacts I thought I didn't them then I got contacts and It was way better and I can't live without them (well I can it just wouldn't feel right).

  • Overheating after 30mins use,display probes and I've got faulty button.

  • Recent reports said, this handheld device overheats. Because of its features and hardwares built in one platform compressed in just only 9.4 millimeter thickness, use your imagination where will the heat escape.

  • No u cannot make calls....

  • The Retina Display is made by Samsung The Processor A5X is made by Samsung too The Flash Drive, and other components made by Samsung too. And the REAL basic manufactured cost to build iPad 3 64GB 4G LTE + Wi-Fi is at least USD 397,55. and this is the fact.

  • Nope..you cannot make phone calls and ipad2 is now cheaper

  • This tablet has no support for GSM voice communication. Click on the specifications and read the top most portion.

  • No it does not make phone calls. You are able to make Internet calls using services like Skype though.

  • Can we make telephone calls or not ... thanks

  • is really ipad 2 cheaper than ipad 3 ???

  • why price of the new ipad 4G in usa and kuwait is different

  • very nic,,,,,,,,,

  • Is it durable?

  • techcrunch "Even if you have perfect vision, indulge me here for a second. You know when you go in for an eye exam and you�re asked to look at a combination of letters and numbers on a chart against a far wall? You read the first few lines, then realize you actually can�t go any further. Then you get prescribed glasses (or contacts) and you can all of a sudden read every letter and number. And even the ones you could read before are now so much clearer. That�s what it�s like looking at the new iPad versus the older iPads. It�s weird because I was never one of those people who thought the original iPad�s and the iPad 2′s screen was poor (but there were plenty of those people in the post-iPhone Retina world). I guess it�s just like a pre-glasses world � you never realize how blurry things are because that�s just how you�ve always seen everything. And then you put the glasses on and you wonder how you ever managed without them. Once you see and use the new iPad, there will be no going back." Excellent comment! Nicely explained "Let me be clear: the new iPad is a huge technological leap forward. It has by far the best screen I�ve ever seen anywhere and it�s something I can hold in my hand and touch and use for 10 hours at a time."

  • Agreed. Windows 8 will be very interesting to see this year. I hope they come out with something awesome.

  • Apple's philosophy has always been that technology is best when invisible, hence the tendency towards minimal design. This also allows them to highlight what Apple feels is the central feature of iOS, which are the apps. Android on the other hand highlights the hardware itself if you notice, and this is due to various manufacturers having to differentiate themselves from their competitors. Apple does not have to deal with this problem so much.

  • Of course not, but in general I dont hold my iPad as close as my iPhone. I hold it a bit further. Do you hold your tablet in front of your face? Hahahaha!

  • i think they missed one feature..flash light..for brighter picture..(in the dark)..

  • u mean to say k u have to hand this slab in front of u at a perticuler distance all the time hahaha

  • Because it can be.

  • I don't care about the camera but still the other 3 are good enough for me.

  • why price of the new ipad 4G in usa and kuwait is different

  • aww .. looks the same as ipad 2.. cant they make it much more interesting

  • Retina is measured by both ppi AND reasonable distance. Read more, it's good for you.

  • Its not having siri in it that's really annoying..

  • Anyone got a dodgy home button i think i have .

  • No Wi-Fi hotspot? No expandable memory? 264 ppi pixel density means no retina display!

  • Apple created the so-called "post-PC era" with the iPad, effectively moving entertainment out of PCs and laptops onto the new generation devices called tablets. Microsoft is the company to watch this year: Windows 8 will hopefully marry the tablet back with the PC for "serious business use" coupled with fun-tertainment.

  • 1) sure it doesn't to a printer via usb but have you heard airprint... I'll give you hint it's for printing 2) iCloud is way better because you do it wirlessly 3) the iPad has hundreds of great native apps for business like Gotomeeting,the iWork suite, and Roambi I will tell exactly what the iPad is good for... everything and anything you would portable but don't need a keyboard... I cannot say that about every Tablet too

  • Playing with iPad 3 now... In a whole year these are the "advances" Apple have come up with- screen is better, camera is better but still not great, performance seems basically exactly the same bar better graphics. But it is very noticeably thicker and heavier than the previous iPad. All in all, extremely disappointing... If you can't get 4g access on iPad 3 in your region, I'd suggest to stick to the iPad 2 (although neither models have anything on some of the android tabs out thre now ie Transformer Prime). Why bother paying for a bulkier, heavier device which is much more uncomfortable to hold when you can get a streamlined version that will almost do exactly he same job? I'm gonna say it again: VERY DISAPPOINTING... Sorry Apple, but it seems like without Jobs, you guys are no longer revolutionary, no longer exciting and no longer improving. Enjoy the downhill slide from here Apple!

  • Finally someone sayed somethig worth reading

  • Hardware sounds brilliant!

  • Yes it still works on 3G ! I`m in Romania and my country still don't have 4G . I will buy this ipad with "4g" . It works with 3g.

  • Flash sucks up battery, I believe that is why apple opt for HTML5 and I like it better than flash. Even adobe terminate mobile flash development due to its inefficiency in the usage. Major proof, You see YouTube has made their move to HTML5, and we can access it from iOS devices.

  • -lx- Yes. Of course it would work on 3G. Device will pick up the best coverage it can find.

  • iPad 3 has got 1GB RAM.

  • very out class note book it user friendly

  • why price of the new ipad in usa and singapore is different

  • yes it is, look at american airline or british airways, pilot use ipad2.it s the only pad approved by the FAA. ipad is good to use only with 1-2 software.it s an excellent tool for specialized environement like in a cockpit.or maybe for doctors. it s a screen, not a computer,this is what people dont get it.its a tool, just a piece of hardware used with a laptop or a pc.it will never replace a full computer. if you buy a pad just to surf the net or play angrybird,get a cheaper android.

  • Absolutely. If the device doesn't pick up a 4G signal, it will use an available 3G signal. If it can't pick up either a 4G or 3G signal, it will attempt to find a 2G signal.

  • of course, it works for 2G, 3G and 4G

  • Yes, The new iPad will be able to connect to your country's 3G networks

  • Yes will work,if you have 3G will work on 3G

  • Hey please tell me. If i were to get the new iPad in South Africa, would it work as we do not have a 4G network. Would it still work on 3G..???

  • very goood! i like it very much!

  • Imagine that, a demo of iPad using HTML5 and it's the exact link provided to you. Boom!

  • He already gave you the link, yet you pretend not to understand. The link showcases HTML5 technology. Browse to this link on any iDevice and you can see video (Tron trailer), typography, audio, a gallery, 360 panning as well as VR tech all using HTML5. Are you thick?

  • I'm not sure that I agree that the iPad 3 is for serious business. Like all current tablets (Samsung series 7 excepted) it is just a toy. I can't imagine a serious business person actually getting any work done on something that: 1) Has no native printing capability and can't connect directly to a printer via USB 2) Can't connect directly via USB to a mac or PC to transfer files. 3) Doesn't have full desktop PC/mac applications. So, you see, Apple has somehow created a market that should only exist for gamers and kids. Google has jumped in with Android (a hotch-potch operating system with no foundations and no joined up thinking) to get some market share in Apple's brave new world, but it will all end in tears. Meanwhile, serious business people are still waiting... Maybe the rumoured Nokia windows tablet will be the answer. Let's hope so.

  • people want professional tab, not a piece of hardware to play game, sucking battery after 3-4 hours. ipad is not for kid, is for adult, who like to use their ipad as a professional tool. airline pilots use ipad, not samsung...guess why?

  • Yes that means that, but look this is a tablet, not a phone.

  • i m not a fan of Apple for many reasons and above all lack of flash support and user restrictions,but i have been waiting for quite a while for this IPAD, and i have tried the TAB 2,and Asus, and i expected from Samsung at MWC to blow us off with the competition with something that is far more powerful and fast but instead they put the same TAB with ICS and they got frustrated bcz the IPAD3 is stronger;same goes for Asus and Nvidia.so bottom line apple has proven once again with this line of equipment that they are the strongest.

  • 1536 x 2048 pixels, 9.7 inches (~264 ppi pixel density) ... means its density is worse then iphone4 or 4s, so its display is not as sharp as iphone's?

  • Developer drops support for Android: Reasons are complicated, fragmentation and simply unsustainable.

  • it's 100% true it is not fake

  • ı totally agree with you. But there is a thing that ı wonder. İpad 3 is 512 mb m or 1 gb ram? if 512 ram i think it will be slow tablet. ı am gonna buy one thats why ı wonder too much the ram thing

  • iPad 3 does't have Siri as it says in spec. It just have Voice Dictation.

  • Nope. It will be called iPad.

  • Wow benchmarks indicate iPad is double speed of Tegra 3. Amazing!

  • Huawei MediaPad 10... Now that's something!

  • Google this. Been a mobile browsing fan. I hardly consume 100mb monthly on my old 240x320 pix phone monthly. Got an iPhone 3G an I gulp 250mb monthly obviously due to higher screen rez. Now I use an iPad 2 and I have to be cautious not to go beyond 1gig monthly. So with a screen with double iPad 2 screen, be sure to be looking at above 1.5 gig monthly with like my browsing demands optimization or not. Am an electronics engineer an am informed. Look at what happens when you open an iPhone app on the iPad. The screen is not populated and to fill up the screen the iPad requires more resolved detail meaning more data bandwidth.

  • Next I pad would be 0.0025℅ thinner would be named I pride 5g

  • live wallpaper does indeed slows down performance, but in the newer tablets, it seems that the performance is increasing, and there is no notable lags in the newer tabs such as the infinity 700.. there isn't any significant stutters.. the reason why iPad is smoother is because it can't support live wallpaper, but stuck with static wallpaper, and the whole UI is just an app launcher, so yeah, that's why.. don't forget that we have widgets as well.. i don't think iOS devices can pull the same performance as now if they have live wallpaper and widgets.. can the new iPad run on A5 chip in the new iPad with the same performance? no, because they still need quad core GPU to process 4x the number of pixels, so there isn't really performance increase.. iOS apps crashes a lot of times as well, but users are not notified, there is no pop up saying that apps has crashed, so you people just think maybe you didn't correctly tap the app launcher, or accidentally pressed the home button.. yeah, apple cover up these mistakes/bugs.. and there is a section for tablet-only apps, with higher resolution support.. and phone apps can still be used in tablets, although SOME might have limitations such as widgets.. but can your iPhone apps run on iPads? hhhmmm.. i think iOS devices are good, but there are so much limitations that iOS fanatics are in denial about, or at least won't own up to.. i understand there are limitations in android too, and i admit those, but for those made-up disadvantages, give me concrete proofs before opening up your mouth..

  • Not until I see a video demo. I don't believe mere words.

  • This iPad also does not do multi tasks, like split screen functions.

  • Yes, Apple bought the rights if this screen tech from 2 Japanese developers and manufacturers. One of them is Sharp. Apple never does research and produces their own tech. They buy them.

  • You seem very stubborn, but here, on the website itself: "Every new Apple mobile device and every new Mac � along with the latest version of Apple�s Safari web browser � supports web standards including HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. These web standards are open, reliable, highly secure, and efficient. They allow web designers and developers to create advanced graphics, typography, animations, and transitions. Standards aren�t add-ons to the web. They are the web. And you can start using them today." Satisfied?

  • Truly iOS supports HTML5, but it doesn't mean if the operating system is iOS the browser will be HTML5. I repeat, only SUPPORT but not eventually HTML5. It is iOS5 but the browser is not HTML5, period!

  • iOS has the best HTML5 support on the market. Latest reports indicate ios devices run HTML5 three times faster than Android.

  • iPad already sold out ahead of launch due to overwhelming demand. Incredible!

  • I can't find it saying HTML5 anywhere in the specs, please check for me!

  • the next ipad will be ipad 4 followed by ipad 4s...

  • exist a aplication or somethink that have internet thetrig ?

  • What? iOS devices have best html5 support in the market.

  • What?!!! HTML (Safari) browser only? It should have been HTML5! If it is not HTML5 browser, I will stick to Galaxy tablet, although HTML browser but with adobe flash support. For me it's either, HTML5 or HTML with web flash player. Other than that, forget it.

  • Getting it on the 17th of march , White wifi + 4g 16gb

  • You do of course realise that a phone browser automatically downloads lower quality pictures for most websites so as to use less data? On a screen of such high pixel density it cannot afford to do this because it would make the images far too small and/or blurry.

  • All that power and ics still stutters with u animations, does not have any talbet specific apps and with a lot of crashes

  • ffs man what does the screen have to do with the cellular data usage??? stop saying bullshit

  • Not really dude, It will just show more pixels on screen, Unless you watch HD videos because it can accept higher resolutions, with webpages the images should be optimized so i do not see more data being used because of the display unless your watching videos on the go...

  • I am grievously disappointed of this senseless play on our intelligence by Apple engineers/developers! If you have nothing to offer, remain hounorably SILENT!!! Gasp!!!

  • With that kind of display it will consume more cellular data bandwidth compared to iPad 2. So get ready to pay for bigger data plan.

  • Apple has officially acknowledged that iPad stock set aside for preorders is sold out, while noting also that customer response to the device has been "off the charts." SOLD OUT! They did it again.

  • lol. so this is the ipad 3? Tim Cook made it? this is good. ipad 3 is the best. at first i use ipad 2, and i love it. but when i see galaxy tab 10.1 has beautiful widget and high processor, i sell my ipad 2, then i buy galaxy tab 10.1, then now i know android all lagging if u have some application. i love ipad 2. i want to buy ipad 3. i will love more if apple and android are become 1 have a beautiful widget and best apple operating system. lol

  • Promising device :) I love Apple iPad...outstanding performance and specifications.

  • yh

  • WP7 can never take over android.. Android is currently the best..and still going to b

  • it is best....

  • aplle iphone most umaging i pad tis my chocie

  • Why are you all preoccupied with so called hardware gains, when 99% of consumers would never know the difference. This is like the old windows/pc verses apple of 10-15 years ago and we all know os efficiency killed just hardware gains. You carry on about quad core. Are you serious? Have break and feed the chickens!

  • Spoken like a true intellectual light weight. If you spend all your life playing a games you need some serious help. Go out there and get a life.

  • How can i order for this apple ipad3 phone

  • Best gadget is only 1 that's pc as you can upgrade it any time as it becomes an old configuration.its fully worth and will never give us disappointment rather than asy consoles or phone or tablet....

  • if i choose between galaxy tab (latest version)and ipad 3, which one i should choose?

  • Samsung Fans; Samsung Galaxy Note still stunning why? faster processor, Super AMOLED with (~285 ppi pixel density)and 8MP Camera and plus Phone Tablet and better price with both Iphone 4S/Ipad 3 :-)

  • "everyone is pointing to this one game : "Infinity Blade Dungeons" its nice and all that the game is amazing but its only one game.. if i take a heavily CPU game and run it on iPad 3 it will kill the device.. on the other hand Tegra 3 got Quad Core CPU and Quad Core+ GPU that good for running heavy games.. think about it" heavy game ?... what heavy game do u want ?... Angry bird ?... there will never be heavy game for ipad... Just go on with PS3 or X Box 360...

  • very small differences compare to ipad 2 wasting of money...

  • Really? This is it? All the fuzz and selling out for this crap...smh! Il stick wid the 4s and my asus prime....

  • Ipad 3 cons- NO STYLUS Still NO QUADCORE CPU IPAD 3 and sony ps vita similarities n differences> 1>Ipad 3 got a dual core A5x cpu which is still slower than Handheld gaming giant Psvita(Sony A12 quadcore cpu) 2>both of them have the same Gpu Powervr sgx543mp4.. But am waiting for Nvidia tegra 4 wayne.supports direct x11 + opengl es 4.0 ....i mean like pc

  • everyone is pointing to this one game : "Infinity Blade Dungeons" its nice and all that the game is amazing but its only one game.. if i take a heavily CPU game and run it on iPad 3 it will kill the device.. on the other hand Tegra 3 got Quad Core CPU and Quad Core+ GPU that good for running heavy games.. think about it

  • 330 dpi? A 9.7" screen with the dpi of 300? That would require a resolution of 2560x1920. What's the point with that? It's not like you would see any difference. I think 264 dpi is quite enough. Actually, I'm buying a Transformer Prime with the dpi of 150. It's also enough. Wow... Apple quadruples the amount of pixels in their iPad, and there are still muppets that complain. Weird.

  • Infinity Blade: Dungeons 'nuff said.

  • Funny how you lump Windows and Android together, when it is Windows Tablets that are going to destroy any hope of Android in the tablet field. Also, it is WP7 that will take Android marketshare this year in the smartphone field too lol.

  • You obviously have no idea how incredible this screen is and how huge this news is to various industries. Have a read:

  • its 2012 apple have the latest technology but still no java and flashplayer ...wtf

  • apple is decievin al u guys by tellin its quad core graphics..but guys, please realise tht nvidia tegra 3 offers (4+1) core CPU and TWELVE core GPU..

  • After buying my first Android devise a month ago Im now selling it and buying the iPad 3, the difference is Apple products are easy and intuitive, Android is soooo hard and unintuitive to use, and nothing works!!

  • What a waste of a release! First the screen, this is meant to be a revolutionary display! 264 ppi, is that all, my HTC Desire has 252 ppi and that's over a year old! Why not crank it up a notch to 330 ish like the iPod Touch 4g and the iPhone 4 and 4S, not impresse. Also, still sticking with the same dual core 1.5 GHz, all the other high end tablets are on to quad core, even some of the new smart phones! Apple is losing a lot of it's share in the phone and tablet market place because they haven't yet realised that people aren't just going to continue buying Apple products just becasue their Apple when Android phones and tablets are so far ahead, yes iOS is slick, yes the Apple devices are pretty but seriously, they have a lot of catching up to do!

  • Adobe flash is dead now....adobe has said that they r not going to make flash anymore(android ics is the last platform for adobe no flash for jelle bean) but they gonna focus on html5 .......Apple,wp7,symbian belle,android.....all has html 5 so why focus on adobe ;

  • touch technolgy was available years before the original iPhone appears, tablets already existed years before the iPad, what apple and steve jobs always did, was to make some technology available for the "common" people, if you are a real apple fan, read about apple's and steve's past i'm an apple fan, not fanboy, i like my iPad 2, but i don't love it, and i'm still waiting for Tim Cook to think about implementing adobe flash into iOS

  • I am waiting for it, when u see, u w'll lve it.

  • It's called the new iPad not the iPad3

  • its not a iPad 3 , its just iPad with retina Display.....and may be apple's nest iPad is iPad 3

  • People who can wait and than watch SG TAB 3 10.1" will blow Ipad 3. I am really satisfied with SG Tab 7" plus.

  • Ipad3 or the New Ipad is really awesome for its performance and speed. Its retina display provide a clear view of picture and letter. With it 5 megapixels camera, It can possibly capture every moments you have. It is an incredible tablet with a new fast chipset A5X, you will never feel any difficulty in moving your webpages. Chanravuth

  • Iam wondering for IOS why ita so expensive even samsung rocks and android rocks too and any one can buy it . Is it make for rich ppl or something

  • Apple - Tim Cook, Where is my iphone 5 (5 Incher)? I can't buy your iphone 4S, it's too small. Am dying for your 5inc phone.

  • ALL android tablets have a feature Called Adobe Flash which makes allows you to go to any websites and they also have a ratio Called 16:10 or 16:9 which makes it suitable for watching hd videos or movies. Some Android tablets also have an application calle tegrazone where you can play free games that are unavailable in the ipad or that has to be payed. Just say they are both good. Oh yeah, by the way, Android tablets also have a feature called polaris office where you can edit documents, excels, and power points straight in the tablets. You have to buy Pages, Keynote and Numbers at a price of 9.99 dollars. Also, Android tablets have free movie editor while you have to buy imovies for 4.99 dollars just to edit your videos. Some android tablets even have micro sd cards to expand your storage. Think twice yong padawan. Think twice.

  • Why not then you wait for ipad 4 that would be even more faster or ipad 5 or 6 or 7 hahaha. My friend its a never ending story, old goes away with new ones take over. So why not enjoy ipad 3 for now till new ones comes. thats what i would do.

  • The GRAPHICS that are quad-core, the processor continue the same ...

  • I'm a big apple hater, but I love ipad though I love android but if you talk about tablet then I would like to go for apple, and I hope that apple will give flash support for browsing.

  • i better hold on to my Playbook and iPad 3G + Wi-Fi and i'll wait for iPad 5

  • no MicroSD slot.... it fails big time... 5MP pictures + 1080p video may eat storage space alot if using 16GB ipad 3..... Need constant online to access cloud.. when outstation (out from urban civilization), no 3G / 4G / wifi coverage ... its a problematic circumstances to access large data for me, its not convenience.... If Apple make a tiny slot for microSD with thier bulky ipad 3... I would be happy to buy. Sadly... I'll go with Asus Infinity =)

  • For all the people that don't know,the Ipad 3 has the same proccesor as the ipad 2,the GPU has been doulbed

  • It has a dual core processor with QUAD core GPU

  • Hey you are wrong! It's an quad-core proc. not dual!

  • Can't wait for this battery tech to be used in next iPhone.

  • have to give it a down for Huawei Mediapad.. see for yourself.

  • 2048*1536 display is simply stunning....i think in apple iphone 5 they will go above 1280*720...

  • It's not even out yet and haters are already all over it, that's what makes it the best tablet in town,I think the next samsung tablet will have retina like display and maybe 1MP more then the so called intelligent people would say is definitely better than iPad 3 Been there done that...

  • Ipad or Android Tab just a Huge Screen version SmartPhone, There is No Way it Can Beat Windows 8 !!!

  • dual core??? expected it to be quadcore...

  • windows days are over

  • could nt get better in specs.....pricewise could have been cheaper.....

  • The new iPad is the king rest all android tabs are useless tab who just have title of tab coz they have huge screen

  • For all android fans from where you get the multi touch , mp3 player , pinch to zoom in out,the concept of app store which u call market , apple is the one from wer u copied android manufacturer just increase ram and processer but stil it don't give the best user experience as iOS does

  • i love apple.and i like ipad3 very much.samsung's tab's can't beat ipad's but.i want to request from apple the upgrade processor to 2 ght ram 2 gb 4" dispay from ipohe5 than no one beat apple

  • this is not apple iPad 3, apple name it "The New iPad" or people said "iPad HD"

  • I'm sure had Jobs been alive, this product wouldn't have seen the light of the day in its present form.

  • Seems like Apple is trying to fool us. Giving us everything we want EXCEPT the processing power. The 4th gen iPad will without doubt have a much more powerful CPU, and therefore kinda forcing us to buy that one when released. Apple refuses to launch a product that is up-to-date for more than 6 months. The A5X chip is already outdated though.

  • apple is truly the king of touch tech. they prove this with the ipa3, just lay ur hands on ipad3 and u will know what touch means. its currently the best available screen in the world, i cud pay any price to get this

  • i need this phone

  • they mean using time... i think!

  • The only things I'm disappointed about is that they didn't upgrade the front camera... no faster cpu (supposedly, the only thing official is that it's dc not qc which i wish had)... the ram might be the same... and battery doesn't last longer then the 2... but I could live with that

  • luks exciting..cant wait

  • Would never bother with Windows 8, microsoft has alot of catching up to do to be as secure as iOS. Some good androids out there, but have not found one yet as good as the 4s or the ipad.

  • Not for me...........wastage of money........they made it like a brick thicker and Heavier.....this happens when Job is not around. The thickness is due to LTE which will not work in Singapore as here it runs in different frequency of LTE here......will wait for next itteration......till then I am happy with tab 7.7 as primary phone and tablet. My iPhone 4 is now secondary phone for local sim when I travel. Hope iPhone 5 will bring me back to Apple or may be with window 8 around who knows I will ditch both iOS and Andriod......it was in news that Job spend most of his last days on iPhone 5 rather then iPad3.........so can understand the technology without soul in iPad3....... hoping to grab a the last iPhone influenced by Job this summer.......unless someone brings a metalic case sub 8mm window 8 phone and tablet.

  • Probably something to do with the massive resolution on the display. That kind of resolution needs a decent amount of power to drive, both in processing and battery power. 10 hours is still good, considering that's what the iPad 2 gets out of its battery.

  • As mentioned previously, 14 commercial networks operating LTE in the 1800MHz spectrum across the globe are not supported by the new iPad. Why not. This is hardly rocket science. Remember there is a real world out there and not everything revolves around just the USA. The reason I have never bought an iPad or Android device is simply because I dont need it. They plays games, check emails, plays video. So what! They are no where near being a netbook replacement in terms of software relevance. Apps you say. 99% are rubbish.

  • The Processor(CPU)is not the Quad core it's the Graphic Processing Unit(GPU) don't be confuse... the Cortex-A9 still Dual Core.

  • it's an ipad 2 remix :-j .....

  • As I can see and know about technology, I don't see any purpose of 2GB or quad-core procesors on mobile phones or tablets, or a good camera on tablets because they are big, a front camera for videocals only is needed. I have an iPhone 3GS and it runs everything just fine and very good. Up to 1GB and a dual-core proc of 1GHz is more than enough in a phone, and 3,5"-4" screen size, everything else is just showing off and unnecessary

  • This new iPad can be working without Ram, it's amazing!!!!!!!!

  • Any thought on different LTE-versions for Europe support e.g. 2600 Mhz?

  • The iPad 3 has 1 gigabyte of RAM. It was specified at the San Francisco unveiling.

  • Li-Po 42.5 Wh = (3816 mAh) has ONLY 10 Hour Talk time ??? HOW ?

  • sorry, can this ipad 3 be used outside the US since most of the ipads have been customized with only at&t and verizon network , please suggestion is needed as soon as possible

  • Silly Apple, it's like playing Temple Run or Tilt to Live would require a quad-core GPU.

  • Its a single Device for both CDMA/GSM ? is the CDMA sim based if anyone knows.. ? and CDMA for Verizon only ???? Common.. why ??

  • Technically it's not retina display!!! just marketing as usual

  • Infinity Blade; Dungeons. Can't wait!

  • It's thicker and heavier. Most people are expecting to have a quad-core A6 processor. I think it's not a big upgrade against iPad 2. Well, may be we will see a quad-core next year with different body design and perhaps thinner and lighter. I wish Apple will release a smaller version of their iPad like 7.7" or 8.9" because I don't like Samsung tablets.

  • will 756 or 1gb ram :)

  • very niceeee...

  • very good!

  • This Ipad 3 don't have Ram ??? and the ram will be 1GB or same as Ipad 2 ???

  • Stats. don't make up for stability (hardware & OS), resolution quality and battery life, plus very fast wifi/3G functionality. The quad-core chip is overkill and at this time, a sales gimmick.

  • What the ram size?

  • a5x processor is dual core smart one.

  • a5x is a dual core processor,no quad core!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • a5x is it from samsung or not thanks

  • Differences: 1. Retina display, simply the most amazing resolution on a tablet anywhere right now. 2. Improved camera - using same 5 optics lens solution as iPhone 4S 3. Improved graphics - Dual core A5X with Quad Core graphics performance - Google "Infinity Blade Dungeons" 4. 4G LTE yet maintaining same battery life as iPad 2 Just the 4 above are enough to see that the new iPad is a phenomenal upgrade to the current one. Those with iPad 2 may not need to upgrade, but for everybody else, this is a great device to get.

  • Epic fail with LTE frequencies. Only USA is using 700MHz. Angela.

  • Lol. Please Apple to apple. Asus is sucks. No aesthetic at all A big machine with collaborating netbook form factor Go buy the Note 10.1 then

  • Not too booming in the market Cant make breakthrough like Apple did Asia's best manufacturer only Samsung. No doubt bout it

  • a5x cpu is a dual core, only the gpu is a quad core and suppose to b faster than a tegra 3

  • 1GB ram. Please be smart before u post

  • wats d difference b2n dis n ipad2

  • No big improvement ? Goodbye apple !

  • How much ram of ipad 3? Gsmarena not say.

  • no radio..... :(

  • Processing chip is dual-core and graphic processor is quad-core.

  • Apple�s new A5X processor, which in fact is a dual-core processor that has low-power system-on-a-chip with quad-core graphics.

  • The quad-core chip is Chipset not CPU

  • I am android fan but " dual-core A5X with quad-core graphics " is the best setup even with PC you don't need high CPU but you need better GPU and RAM for game and videos , that what should Sony do it on vita but thy do it wrong , only apple now is the 100% wow know how to upgrade Devices .

  • never disappointed like this before with apple!! its not anymore amazing yet..

  • this ipad is ipad 3 as iphone 4s is iphone 5

  • plus, its never about numbers, its about quality given. I bet the 8 mega pixel camera will have dramatically less quality than iPad's 5 mega one, QUALITY over anything else. and the 1 dual core processor will be faster than the cheap quad core one, again, stop calling out the numbers and look at the facts, iPhone 4S (which i have) is faster than any 1.5 dual core processor, although its -only- 1GZ.

  • Its about the hardware and software together, mr.smart. iPad will remain #1 tablet world wide, its just a fact.

  • It's the same CPU (Quad-Core Cortex A-9) and the same GPU (PowerVR SGX543MP4) that the PlayStation Vita.

  • Asus Transformer Pad Infinity with 1.6 GHz quad-core Cortex-A9 cpu and Twelve-core ULP GeForce gpu, with 8MP Auto-Focus with LED Flash (1080p) main camera and 2MP (720p) front facing camera, and 1920 x 1200 pixels screen resolution and 1GB ram, and can handle both html5 and Adobe Flash..., is clearly the best tablet!

  • Nope, it's dual core A9

  • It is Dual-Core 1GHz. Here is officially from Apple:

  • Its Quad-core, not Dual-core....

  • Only 5 mp camera? Come on, Apple, are you still in the dinosaur age? 1 Ghz CPU? No card slot? No thanks, and I don't need your junk apps.

  • ios is 5.0.1 not 5

  • it is dual core processor with quad-core graphics

  • It's quad-core GPU and dual-core CPU.

  • What is it then ?

  • No, it Dual core noob. check

  • Not its dual core. Please get your facts right before writing a comment. :)

  • true

  • OK

  • The best... cant wait

  • hi sir/madam.. just wanna ask if its worth it to buy this one or apple will going to release new model of ipad? im confused which to choose.. thank you all.

  • CPU is dual core only and the GPU is quad core...

  • so what is name ipad 3

  • No, CPU is dual core, GPU is quard core.

  • NO check the apple website man, its Dual-core Apple A5X custom-designed, high-performance, low-power system-on-a-chip with quad-core graphics. ok its only dual core but with quad core graphics

  • its Dual Core CPU and Quad Core GPU

  • It is not quad core, the graphics ship is quad core, the cpu it self is dual core.

  • yes GSMArena is right the A5X is Dual Core CPU with enhanced speed & the PowerVR SGX543MP4 is Quad Core GPU someone need do more research on this.

  • a5x= 2 core cpu and 4 core gpu

  • ..... the war is begin between samsung and apple

  • Its HSPA+ DC 64QAM capable or not? (43.2 Mbps theretical peak)

  • actualy is a dual core CPU and a quad core GPU...

  • It's The New iPad not iPad 3

  • still 512 RAM

  • It's Dual Core. Read the specs on Apple website.

  • Thank you

  • Correction !! Itz not a Quad Core CPU , itz a Quad Core GPU ( Graphic Processor ) Normal Processor is still dual core only .

  • Huawei MediaPad 10 FHD is a much better device than this one... what these brands charge in $$$ is only goodwill money so that they can pay guys who sue them for copywriting their technology and design

  • Yes, absolutely your right, A5X is a dual core and a Quad Core graphics.

  • I only like the price.....

  • Nope, it's the GPU which is the Quad Core not the CPU.

  • i'm sure you didn't read the news, it is dual core, dual GPU.

  • Huawei MediaPad 10 FHD is better than this..... See comparison here:

  • How much ram the new iPad has? And is front FaceTime camera better in quality than iPad 2 many thanks.

  • Is this really something you insist on them addressing or do you have waaaay too much spare time??

  • I can't belive

  • leave it to apple to be the marker leader n yes they dnt dissapoint the screen resolution is awesome n the chip is okay theres is no need for a quadcore in any ios device n the quadcore GPU is mindblowing n finally 4G Lte comes to Ios i doubt there is any slate out there that will match the ipad

  • It's dual-core, but it has two extra gpu cores compared to ipad 2.

  • Ipad new name i3

  • Super resolution

  • 1 year of R & D, & Apple this time again nothing new, guess now the Iphone user just could utilize the apps & smoothness for Iproduct, nothing more to offer....zzzzzz

  • Dual core cpu, "QUAD core gpu". Apple you trolling? Seems like my ipad2 needs no upgrade.

  • Rubbish its nonsense that they are making lilltle changes 4g was out last but they introduces it now that's how the company making us stupid

  • I think is dual core CPU + quad core GPU.. that's why is called A5X..

  • cpu is dual core GPU is quad core

  • nope.. u're wrong.. A5X is a dual core CPU.. but PowerVR SGX543MP4 is a quad core GPU.. so the processor still using two cores..

  • It's heavier and thicker than iPAD 2... :(

  • Wtf are wrong with you people? gsm arena is right

  • It runs on an A5X processor, which includes a quad-core graphics module. Apple said the processor is twice as fast as the Nvidia Tegra 3 chipset and four times faster than that in terms of graphic performance. Quad-core GRAPHICS module...

  • No earth shattering advances or innovation just variations on the same theme. A little disappointing given recent advances in technology. Fundamental Apple fans no doubt will get a warm wet feeling but for those looking for greater flexibility and practical solutions will certainly look at their options. On a positive note mind you, great product for new comers who don't understand technology, its simple to use and doesn't require great intellect to operate, a great consumer product for the masses since the only the only decision they need to make is black or white so I think Apple should do well selling the product.

  • That`s "The New iPad"? hahahaha

  • It is quad core GPU, the CPU is still dual core.

  • dual core CPU and quad core GPU. don't get them mixed up.

  • Finally iPad 2S has arrived!

  • now we can guess what iPad 4 will be: Same as ipad 2 BUT with a better sound quality (and maybe a little heavier)!!! i think i'll wait for that one...

  • The best tablet just got better.

  • Is quad core GPU, not CPU! Cpu is still dual core ;)

  • really no quad core CPU I'm disappointed that nobody can keep up with android except windows but honestly who would buy a windows tablet?

  • it's a dual core cpu, with quad core gpu

  • stop calling it has a quad core....it does not. its a dual core with quad core graphics. read before you post

  • all of you who cannot read.....a5x is not quad core. gsm arena is right its a dual core with a quad core graphics. please read before you post.

  • dual core CPU, quad core GPU

  • Sorry no IPad3 for me; I have to buy iGas4.0. I will also be saving to pay for iGas5.0 ...coming out this summer! Plus if you have $600 go buy a freakin laptop...it will run loops around the Ipad (I have a Ipad2 btw, it was a gift, i didn't buy it used it for couple of weeks cannot handle what a laptop can do...soo whent back to my ol'laptop witch i bought fot $400 ;) and now the Ipad....let just say it's just collecting dust

  • apple it self says itis a dualcore processor with quad core gpu ,chech your info

  • the A5x is not a quad core processor , it is dualcoreprocessor with quadcore gpu , tegra 3 is 4+1 cores processor + 12 core gpu

  • Friends at GSMA, pls update teh name of this device as per you article it should only be called ipad

  • no.... quadcore is the gpu. The cpu is dualcore.

  • dual core cpu, quad core gpu

  • a5x is dual core procesor however have a quad core graphic

  • Tegra 3 1.5 quad core gpu uplgforce 12 cores vs A5x dual core 1.0 gpu 4 cores... How can people said that A5X can be better than tegra 3 jajajajajaja only apple fans can said that kind of bullshits

  • So just added a faster processor and 4G...I wonder if we will see the headlines of how 2million dumb people buy this one eh !! I don't get why they can't update it with newer design, better customizations and many more things....prolly squeeze money out I guess

  • What is the RAM ?

  • Would there be a chance that the screen is corning gorilla?

  • if u watch the offical video you will hear Third generation

  • This is not quadcore as some here say. this is dualcore. this is done because it is expensive and unnecessary to put the quadcore. I really do not know how you thought that this is quadcore, do you work in the apple. Or maybe you've been on the presentation ipad?

  • a5x is dual core cpu and quad gpu

  • No it is dual core cpu with quad core graphics

  • Please change the name of this device. it's not iPad 3

  • A5X is a quad core cpu no dual core cpu

  • Yeah... I don't know what to say... The only thing I like it's the screen.

  • Well, just the retina display .... There isn't really any innovation there. It's still good,but nothing's awesome....

  • I agree

  • They should have called it the "iPad 2S"

  • It has the nicest screen out there, but the specs are not their key selling point. Half the RAM of the MediaPad FHD, just a little bit more of resolution and PPI, and 1GHz Dual Core vs 1.5 GHz Quad Core, lower camera(s) specs. What is left for it is to have a nice GPU and the improvements in the iOS 5. Huawei shocked me, Apple just gave me some not-so-boring news...

  • 73% market share in tablet would this be enough gain more & retain the 73%?

  • the grafic preformans of the new ipad is 4x better then the quad qore tegra 3... :) that tells you everything

  • best one so far !! look at resolution , perfect.

  • POOR :(

  • Htc jetstream is old and still got everything better than ipad 3 except the screen(8mp cam 1.5 ghz.............)

  • I don't see anything here..get a Blackberry playbook instead. It is cheaper and can truly multifunction.At 199$ in canada and us, it is unbeatable. But Apple lovers are already standing in queue i think to get their hands on a 700 $ tablet that has nothing truley super to offer. And the IFAD continues.

  • Well, just the retina display .... There isn't really any innovation there. It's still good,but nothing's awesome....

  • Stop calling it the iPad 3, it is called "the new iPad"

  • no siri???

  • it's 1gb ram not 512

  • quad-core a5x not dual

  • Ummm... I think it's "The New iPad"

  • this is the new iPad.the best!!!!

  • Wow!!! The display is awesome, and the..., and the rest is pretty boring, 512 Ram, same design, and the CPU is not the most powerful thing i ever saw. I can't believe the amount of press it's getting.

  • Meh, nothing impressive.

  • what a shame? say goodbye to it all!

  • quad-core a5x

  • it is quad core not dual core

  • its a Quadcore Processor.Probably GSM Arena is designing there own iPAD with A5X and DC Processor

  • Love it a great challenge to all others. Apple u r just awsum

  • how boring, apple is finally getting 4g, but you still need to wait to get it on your Islowphone

  • it's quad core note dual core....

  • Just display resolution and camera resolutions increased, thats it... Same storage capacity, 512mb RAM(lol), 1ghz dc processor... And nothing innovative and interesting...

  • Other than the screen resolution, nothing... The best thing about the iPad 3 is that it'll drop the price of the iPad 2

  • asus transformer /huawei pad :)

  • I can't belive

  • Could not believe that they will put this display into new iPad. This thing is hot :] Can't wait to see its display in action.

  • VERY GOOD iam very happy to see the new version of i pad khalid

  • ipad 3 is already obsolete before it even comes out truly sad
