Apple has undoubtedly created one of the most amazing and unforgettable gadget in the history of technology i.e the iPad. And with no obstacles in front Apple brought the successors which has always ended on a high note. There is no doubt in my mind saying this that when the first iPad launched, no one in this blistering world would have thought that this particular gadget would turnout historic or a legend because now when the world is waiting for the third edition of iPad, it must be hailed as a legend.
So, first things first we will start the tour of iPad 3 with its design. The iPad 3’s design will be thicker compared to the iPad 2. The iPad 3 will have a touchscreen HD display with a resolution of 2048 x 1536. To reduce the weight of iPad 3, it has a lighter battery and it might cost 20-30 percent more than the current iPad’s battery and will have a longer battery life.
Apple iPad 2 carried a 900 MHz dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor, Apple A5 chipset and Power Vr SGX543MP2 GPU which made iPad 2 a powerful tablet and performed very well. Now, Apple is putting an A6 Quad core processor in iPad 3 which will make it more powerful than iPad 2 or any high-end desktop.
Kevin Krewell, Linley Group senior analyst says, “We expect the A6 will be Quad-core ARM Cortex-A9 design, which would be competitive with next year’s best mobile processors. In 2012, Nvidia will offer a Quad-core processor operating at 1.7 GHz fabricating Apple’s A6 in 28nm will reduce both di cost and power, yielding a much better product.”
The new iPad 3 will come be available with the latest iOS 5 which will feature the multi-touch gesture technology. Many analysts predicted that Apple might introduce OS X Lion for the tablet as it will have a Quad-core processor. Another center of attraction in the iPad 3 is the 3D feature and New Retina Display. The iPad lovers expected Retina Display feature on iPad 2 and meanwhile Apple has been working on an improved version of which will be introduced in iPad 3. The current iPhone 4 has the Retina Display with the screen resolution of 960 x 640.
Apple explains Retina Display as- “Developing pixels a mere 78 micrometers wide, Apple engineers were able to pack four times the number of pixels into the same 3.5-inch (diagonal) screen found on the earlier iPhone models. The resulting pixel density of iPhone 4- 326 pixels per inch – makes text and graphics look smooth and continuous at any size.”
With the addition of Retina Display, iPad 3 will support 2048 x 1536 pixels screen resolution. Another speculation building between the enthusiasts is the 3D view in the display of iPad 3 but I think it is too early to expect such feature form Apple.
Apple’s Trademark Feature Continues
- Cloud Computing
The Cloud Computing services were announced by Apple during the WWDC 2011 and after introducing this feature in iPhone 5, they will surely include iCloud technology in iPad 3. Through this feature user would be able to access and store photos, apps, calendars, and songs on iTunes.
- Camera
The iPad 2 had a nice camera with LED flash support and iPad 3 is likely to have much improved camera. It is expected to have a 5 megapixels camera with 1080p or 710p video recording quality of 60 frames per second. The technology made by OmniVision will help reduce the size of the tablet by 20 percent.
