Apple iPad 3 is a high quality iOS tablet launched in 2012, featuring a fast 1 gigahertz Dual-Core processing unit, a big size 9.7" touch-screen, a 5 megapixels back-facing camera and a 0.3 MP front camera. We will get a better understanding of this device's characteristics when we get into deeper details.

Being just 0.37 inches thick,the iPad 3 is extremely slim and stilized. The iPad 3 is just 9.5 inches long and 7.31" wide, but it manages to hold a 9.7" screen. Apple appears to have forgotten about weight optimization in this 23.35 ounces tablet. Apple sells the iPad 3 in two different colors: black and white.

This tablet includes a good looking 9.7 inches screen with a 1536 x 2048 resolution, giving this portable tablet a detailed image quality. This screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

Apple decided to power this tablet with a fast 1000 megahertz Dual-Core processing unit, packed into the Apple A5X chip with 1 GB of RAM memory. A great advantage of this tablet is its big 64 GB internal storage and while it doesn't include an SD memory slot, it it is more than enough to install tons of applications, games, pictures and videos without worrying about how much storage is left.

This tablet has two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 0.3 megapixels front camera. It is also able to shoot videos in 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 fps. To complete the camera, it also counts with some nice characteristics like digital image stabilization, auto-focus, face detection shooting and geo tagging.

This tablet packs an incredible 11560 mAh Li-Polymer non-replaceable battery that can keep it 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 this tablet's battery is non-replaceable so you can't buy a new battery when it begins to lose its charge, even though with its 11560 mAh you will probably replace this tablet before it becomes an issue.

The iPad 3 includes wi-fi connection (which it can provide to other devices around, acting as a wireless modem or router), 4G (LTE) high speed connection and also HSPA+ connection type, a slower 4G variation and 3G fast internet connection, using HSDPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This tablet uses a Micro SIM card for GSM networks.

The iPad 3 also features a few nice features such as Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS Localization, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

Apple offers this tablet for $ 475, which is high for this type of device. This tablet is probably a great option no matter if you you love taking photographs, need a tablet device mainly for internet broswing and social networks, will use this tablet device to play games or need it for work. When you buy the Apple iPad 3 you also get Dock Connector to USB Cable, Documentation and 10W USB Power Adapter.
