Five Reasons to Upgrade to the The New iPad

Apple just unveiled their new iPad with some pretty impressive improvements! It’s really a fantastic new device. Here are 5 of the main “big deal” upgrades that might help you decide whether or not to upgrade!

Retina Display

This is a biggie. With a resolution of 2048 x 1536, the new iPad packs more pixels than an HDTV. Your text, photos, videos, and apps will look amazing – clearer and sharper than ever before!

Faster Processor

Apple has packed a new A5x chip into the new iPad, featuring a fast dual-core processor and extremely powerful new quad-core graphics chip! You’ll be able to game and multitask like never before!

Better Camera

Apple packed the same camera technology from the iPhone 4S into a 5MP rear camera for the new iPad, and has updated the front-facing camera to “HD” quality. The cameras on the iPad 2 were terrible, so this is a welcome upgrade!

No Decrease in Battery Life

This is also a big deal. With a Retina display, a faster processor, and the addition of LTE, Apple is still able to achieve 10 hours of battery life on the new iPad (or 9 hours when using 4G LTE). That’s pretty impressive!

4G LTE Support

The iPad now supports 4G LTE data – it’s extremely fast – up to 73Mbps (versus 21Mbps for 3G). All I can say is WOW.
And finally, the new iPad is priced the same as the iPad 2 before it! Are you getting one?
