Apple have Changed Everything once again!
 

The iPad has better graphics and more memory than the PS3 and Xbox.

A resolution so great that it can only be shown on a 4k Cinema Projector.

And lots more of course, come over to Computer Related to slag Apple off and join the line for the Lemon Sucking competition.

Nothing particularly impressive today. iPad 3 is nice, not ground breaking. Not worth upgrading my iPad 2.

iPhone 5 and newest Macbook later in the year look promising.

Yes the screen that Samsung sold them as they have a one ;)
The ipad now has a graphics chip better than a 5+ year old xbox, wow, roll on the new xbox :D
Give it 6 months (if that) and this ipad will be old hat, that is the way with technology, so prepared to be flamed quite a bit Jack ;)

For me the best thing they could have done is made it lighter, they've instead made it heavier (presumably the larger battery).

Fairly underwhelmed, better screen (it was badly needed), and a bit faster CPU and GPU, and... that's it. Evolution not revolution.

Still not sure what the point is of having a screen which has higher resolution than my 46" TV. There's barely any content produced in that resolution, so tv and films wont benefit.

It's a shame they didn't change your record while they were at it. This is trolling, no more, no less.

Don't get me wrong, I've got a MacBook, an iPhone4 and an iPad2 but WTF is the point of having a screen that good if you can't actually see the benefit of it? :cuckoo:

I doubt many iPad3 owners will have a 4k cinema projector kicking about lol

Tony, how come Samsung don't use their own Screen?

And how come you avoided the question lol

Im a little underwhelmed, not sure why and not even sure what I was expecting but I don't really feel a mad urge to upgrade my iPad 1.

However when I see it in the flesh I may change my mind :)

They will, only higher in resolution, their retina screen will be 2560x1600, wow even higher quality than you get in a 4k cinema projector.:lol1:

If you mean your 'what's the point question' then you missed the point. You can see the benefit when looking at the iPad but obviously you can't see the higher definition when shown on a lower definition projector or screen.

Pretty sure you said the same thing about the iPhone, iPad, iPad 2 and now the new iPad. Nothing has managed to knock them off the top spot yet.

When are the clocks going forward?

Seems very nice I have to say. My folks purloined my ipad1 so I've been without for a couple of months.

I'll pick one up after the initial rush I guess. I really want one with the gps so I need the 4g version (can someone confirm this?), but unsure of the GB size yet. The new iphoto app looks nice too.

I'll form an opinion on the benefit or not of the screen when I have seen the thing with my own eyes, not before.

Everyone makes do with 1920x1080p the other side of the room because they can't see the pixels at that distance. An lcd monitor 1920x1200 at 15-24 inches away is using antialiasing on fonts etc so you dont see jaggies all over the place. Turn all that off and it turns into a pixel fest.

The screen on the iphone4 looks so much better than the original iphones. The old ones look quite pixely now, and I guess the difference will the same on the ipad.

It will be interesting to see what the other tablet makers do though over the next 6 months or so. However, yet again Apple raises the bar, and everyone else plays catch up.

Richie.

A nice spec that is without doubt. Not enough to make me want to upgrade from my ipad 2 .

However one of its big selling points is the 4G or LTE.

Now look at the coverage from the big three carriers in the UK

(vodafone does not even have a map yet)

They are still arguing the toss on the spectrum so expect it rolled out at some point in the future by which time the ipad 4 will be out :)

Really? So which phone won best smartphone 2012 then?

So the A5x has dual core cpu and quad core graphics. The Tegra 3, already found in other hardware, has quad core cpu with a 5th companion core and a 12 core NVidia GPU that supports resolutions of up to 2560x1600. I'm guessing the HTC One X won the best smartphone 2012? If so, guess what processor that has? A phone, more powerful than Apple's newest iPad :lol1::lol1::lol1:

Don't count your chickens yet Saint, Apple are quoting 4x performance over Tegra 3 with their new A5X chip. Reviewers are chomping at the bit to run their own benchmarks so only time will tell. Also don't forget that this is a custom chip from Apple and they are keeping up with NVidia which is pretty impressive in itself, only time will tell if they have surpassed them for the moment. T3 will only support 1080p over HDMI, the screen resolution supported is 2048x1536 which is the same as the iPad3.

As an iPhone owner, I have to say that the software/speed on the HTC One X does look pretty slick and the LG X3 does look pretty nice. I'm still going to keep my iPhone 4 (non S) and wait to see what 5 brings. As you have pointed out if they are going to use the A5X in the iPhone 5 in 3-8 months it might not be enough, only time will tell.

I can't be bothered with another Apple troll-fest from JC.

We already have a thread about the iPad 3 - locking this one.
