Apple iPad 3 Review

Apple iPad 3 is an impressive iOS portable tablet launched back in the year 2012, equipped with an enormous 9.7 inches screen, a 1000 megahertz Dual-Core processor, a 5 megapixels back side camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front facing camera. Let's take a better sight of what this tablet device offers to us.

Apple decided to build the iPad 3 using a Apple A5X system chip, which holds a good performance 1000 MHz Dual-Core processor with 1 GB of RAM. A nice advantage of this tablet is its quite large 16 GB internal storage memory and though it doesn't have an SD card slot, it should be enough to install a couple hundred applications, although it may not be suitable if you are planning to install a couple of the largest games available nowadays.

The Apple iPad 3 is incredibly slim and practical, being just 0.37 inches thick. Although this device is just 9.5 inches long and 7.31 inches wide, it's still able to fit a a 9.7" screen. Apple offers the iPad 3 in black and white. The iPad 3 feels a bit heavy for a tablet of this size, with a weight of 23.35 ounces.

This tablet includes a interesting 1536 x 2048 9.7-inches screen, which makes it hard to distinguish the pixels forming the screen. This screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multiple fingers at the same time.

This tablet is equipped with two cameras, a 5 megapixels back camera and a 0.3 megapixels front-facing camera. This tablet can also capture videos in Full HD 1920x1080 at 30 fps. Additionally, the camera counts with some interesting characteristics like auto-focus, geo tagging and face detection shooting.

The iPad 3 counts with wi-fi connection (and it can be shared with other devices as a mobile hotspot), 4G (LTE) fast data connection and also HSPA+ connection type, that is a lower speed 4G network and 3G fast connection type, using HSDPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This tablet uses a Micro SIM card for GSM carriers.

The iPad 3 also features some useful features as Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS Geolocation, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

The iPad 3 packs a big 11560 mAh Li-Polymer non-removable battery that can keep this tablet device running for many hours and even reach the end of the day without charging it at all. An issue to take into consideration is that the iPad 3's battery is non-replaceable so you won't be able to replace it when it starts to have trouble holding its charge, although with such a huge battery size you will probably replace this tablet device before it becomes a real problem.

This tablet is priced 355 dollars, which is expensive for a tablet this level. The iPad 3 is probably the right choice for you no matter if you need a tablet device mostly for internet broswing and social networks, will use it for work, will use it as a gaming portable tablet or love photography. This tablet includes Dock Connector to USB Cable, Documentation and 10W USB Power Adapter.
