iPad 3?? Nah..it’s the new iPad 2 Advance…

Apple has just released their new iPad. As how the hype that it was the new iPad 3, it seems to be more of an enhanced version of the current iPad. The new iPad seems to be amazing expecially with its new Retina display and it’s 5MP rear camera.


The major differences between the new iPad and iPad 2 are as follow:

	New iPad	iPad 2
Chip	A5X Chipset	A5 Chipset
Display	2048-by-1536-pixel resolution at 264 pixels per inch (ppi) High Resolution Retina display	1024-by-768-pixel resolution at 132 pixels per inch (ppi)
Camera	iSight camera: 5-megapixel with autofocus; tap to focus; face detection in still images; video recording, HD (1080p) up to 30 frames per second with audio; video stabilization	Back camera: Video recording, HD (720p) up to 30 frames per second with audio; still camera with 5x digital zoom
Connectivity	Wifi and 4G	Wifi and 3G

At the moment, the new iPad is going for USD 499 in the States so it is predicted to be around RM1499 for the Wifi only model.
On the brighter side, Apple has started to sell their older model of iPad 2 at a discounted price of RM300. So for the model that was RM1499 before for the 16GB WiFi, it is now only RM1199. So now would be a great time to get the iPad that you wanted.
