What’s New on the New iPad Compares to Current iPad 2

Apple CEO Tim Cook has introduced the new iPad to the whole world on March 7, Wednesday. It has a faster processor, a better camera and a display that promises to be dramatically sharper than iPad 2.

Apple is still on the top in the mobile market. Regardless the besieged situations of Apple iPad by other opponents like Samsung, HTC and Blackberry with their powerful hardware, Amazon and Barnes & Nobles with their simple but cheap tablets, Windows Mobile, Blackberry, etc., the iPad 2’s huge success indicates that Apple laughs to the last.

After a whole year of iPad 3 rumors, we finally get to know the specifications of the new iPad. Since Tim Cook didn’t unveil the official name of the new iPad, so whether it will be called iPad 3 or iPad HD like rumored before, or other names, remains a question. Fortunately we won’t wait for long as the new iPad will be available in the United States and 9 other countries March 16 and cost the same as the iPad 2 -- from $499 to $829 based on storage capacity and Wi-Fi capacity.

"It is amazing," Apple CEO Tim Cook said at a San Francisco unveiling. "We've taken it to a whole new level, and we are redefining the category that Apple created with the original iPad."

The most amazing is the new 9.7-inch display screen which features a "retina display" of 2048x1536 pixels, compared with the iPad 2’s 1024x768 pixels. To break it down, that's a total of 3.1 million pixels on the display screen. Your retina in your eye cannot discern those individual pixels and thus it would be stunning to view movies, games, pictures, presentations on the new iPad. With the help of Moyea PPT to Video Converter to save PowerPoint as iPad supported MP4 or MOV, you will be able to view PowerPoint on iPad with no limitations.

The new iPad will be available in the U.S. on AT&T and Verizon with 4G networks support. On a 4G network, you can download content, stream video, and browse the web at amazing speeds. Even if you’re in a location without 4G, you can still get access to fast 3G networks.

Last year iPad 2 made a great progress by adding a front-facing camera for video calling. But it is far from enough. The new iPad will have a 5MP iSight camera capable of 1080p HD recording at 30fps, representing a significant leap from the current iPad 2's so-so lens.

When the iPad was introduced in early 2010, tablets already existed, but none had become popular with mainstream consumers. Even Apple itself didn’t imagine that unexpected huge success. We can see that there will be hard competition in the mobile market, should Apple get worried?
