Operation experience of the third generation iPad. Operating experience iPad third generation What processor in iPad 3
World Announcement Apple iPad. 3 (A1430) took place on March 16, 2012, but even despite this, the first review was made about a week earlier by Vietnamese observers. The impression of Apple iPad 3 contradictory, because it seems that somewhere something like that we have already seen. And indeed, the novelty is very much reminiscent of the iPad of the last generation, up to the fact that control elements are the same in form and are located in identical design places.
In general, in the direct similarity of the novelty, there is nothing wrong, because the old model is considered the "gold standard" among tablets. However, the device must differ something and the main emphasis here was made on specifications And for the price). When entering the market, Apple iPad 3 (A1430) cost about 40,000 rubles for 64 GB version, in fact, the question immediately arises: is there a device for such considerable money? Here let's look at it.
The device obtained the size of 241x186x9 mm and the weight of 650 grams. The weight of the new mobile device was very pleased with his uniform distribution, which you can't tell about many Android tablets. The camera here is installed similar to the iPhone 4S with autofocus, with good lighting removes quite well for a mobile device, but nothing to brag. The module can record video in 1080p format.
It is worth noting that the novelty is less than the brand rear panel, which does not scratch, and the quality of the materials will be a little more interesting. Now let's consider more specific specifications.
Screen
The main difference between the new Apple iPad 3 (A1430) from the predecessor is its screen, the resolution of which has increased from the traditional 1024x768 points, to a really impressive 2048x1536. Pixel density on this screen is 264 ppi. So, if you hold the device at a distance of the half meter from myself, then you will not notice any pixels.
At first glance on the application icons and on the text you will be impressed at least, because the level of detail is really amazing. In general, seeing such a screen at least once, you will probably disappear to use something else. The viewing angles, as before, at the height, the color coverage is 99% by RGB (in contrast to the precursor, where this figure was 61%).
Performance
Now even tastier - technical performance. Apple iPad 3 (A1430) works with Apple A5X processor with clock frequency 1 GHz (ARM Cortex-A9 base) and PowerVR SGX543MP4 quad-core graphic chip. The amount of RAM increased and is now 1 GB. If you compare the device with the predecessor again, then it is difficult to notice a special difference in productivity growth, because the updated characteristics are tritely "fought" by impressive screen resolution.
But here some applications really began to run a little faster and is associated with an increased operational scope. In general, the animation is fast and clear, applications are started instantly, an excellent response to touch - all this has long been the standard for Apple. Android devices Do not reach your devices to this level, even at some, it is even good, but on the background with iOS, they still look ridiculously and inadvertible.
Battery and heating
Apple iPad 3 (A1430) received the LTE module, an impressive 4-nuclear schedule, a huge screen screen - it requires much more energy than previously required. So what did the company developers gave us? And they presented a battery for 43 W-hours, which is 70% more than the predecessor; It is about 20% more than in the 11-inch MacBook Air.
According to the Apple iPad 3 manufacturer, it is able to hold out about 10 hours through the connected Wi-Fi or 9 hours via the LTE network. In reality, Apple iPad 3 really surprised: the device has been able to work more than 12 hours when viewing video in HD format, which is really worthy of applause.
But to get something, something we lose. An increase in productivity and its energy intensity led to a long charging process. For 8 watch night, the tablet via USB has time to charge about 80-85%, which is not very pleased. It is also not worth overlooking the moment that the device has become really hot, especially at elevated loads in games.
RESULTS
The review turned out to be really short, because we did not discuss operating system And that's why: iOS on the old iPad and new Apple iPad 3 (A1430) is the same. The difference can only be swung in a few modified display of icons and fonts. Well, it is worth noting that acquiring this deviceYou will receive a closed operating system, which is nevertheless the dominant among mobile devices. IOS also offers a slightly large range of applications in his corporate store, rather than Android, even the difference is not particularly noticeable.
Of the truly impressive features of the device, it is worth highlighting its screen with a resolution of 2048x1536 points with maximum viewing angles and stunning picture quality. Looking at this screen at least once, a person is already unlikely to use any other screen, although we do not forget that competitors do not sleep.
At the same time, the price of the device remained about the same, and time autonomous work Really able to please. In other words, we have all the same old iPad, but more improved. If you compare Apple iPad 3 with competitors for Android, then the device from Apple will be a little more expensive, but really have something for what.
Causes to buy Apple iPad 3:
- excellent design and screen, durable aluminum housing;
- the screen to which there is practically no competitors;
- speed of work above all praise;
- a huge range of software;
- for a long time.
Causes Do not buy Apple iPad 3:
- too long charging process;
- strong heat heating, especially with elevated loads.
The release of each new model of Apple tablets fans are waiting with a special hope, because these are new "chips", and more opportunities for users. So the output of the iPad 3 model was marked by the appearance of the newest Retina-Dysfly, which was different at that time with incredible image quality. I wonder what the developers were pleased with the new iPad 4 model?
The appearance of the gadget has practically not changed, which has noticeably pleased the admirers of the Apple brand. After all, according to experts, the iPad 3 building was recognized as the most optimal.
The only external difference from previous model There was a more miniature system connector Lightning, replacing a traditional 30-pin docking connector.
The dimensions of the tablet, as before, are 241.2 × 185.7 × 9.4 mm with a mass of 652-662 g (depending on the presence of a cellular module). Maybe some users were waiting for a new model of more miniature, but recall the increased capacity of an increased container, which basically affects the thickness of the device.
Facing tablet panel closed protective glass With a oleophobic coating, reliably a protective display from random strikes and scratches. A new 1.2-megapixel front camera lens is mounted above the screen, as before, the HOME hardware key is located. Apple developers deliberately left the matrix edging quite widely, which makes it possible to conveniently hold the housing without touching the touch screen with the fingers.
The rear panel is made of anodized aluminum, which, together with smoothly spilled lateral glands, represents a single part. At its upper face there is a power button, headphone jack (3.5 mm) and black antenna plug mobile communications. Nearby built-in lens of the main chamber. At the bottom of the rear panel, the speaker and the Lightning connector are built.
On the left side of the housing is a micro-SIM slot (relevant for the model with 4G), on the right - the key-rocker to adjust the volume and the Mute slider, which also blocks the automatic orientation of the image.
Screen
In the Apple iPad 4 table, as in the previous model, RETINA is applied with a resolution of 2048? 1536. When the screen is 9.7 inches diagonally, the pixel density is 264 PPI, which makes the image on the screen more similar to the glossy magazine page. Pixels are completely indistinguishable, so the reality of the image is simply amazing. This time the developers did right choice. Why look for other solutions if this display It is considered the best among all 10-inch tablets. The only minus remains the absence of an anti-glare coating, which users of Apple gadgets have been discussed.
The IPS matrix is \u200b\u200bmade by the same technology, therefore combines with in itself a natural color gamut and maximum viewing angles. Its quality is especially noticeable when compared with previous generations of displays. The positioning of the capacitive sensor has become more accurate and, moreover, it has a warm color gamut with improved image detail.
Speed \u200b\u200band functionality
If we talk about the main differences iPad models 4 and iPad 3, then they concern their filling. The new tablet uses a processor with a clock frequency of 1.4 GHz - Apple A6X. As a graphic coprocessor, four nuclear PowerVR SGX 554MP4 is used with a capacity of up to 76.8 GFLOPS. Interesting is the fact that the leading Android models contain up to 17 nuclei in graphic system. Despite this, their productivity is at times inferior to Apple tablets. 
The new decision was the placement of RAM. It is carried out beyond the crystal of the processor and implemented on two chips of 512 MB each, that is, the total capacity is 1 GB.
Constant or flash memory is installed with a capacity of 16, 32 or 64 GB. For a model released in January 2013, it is 128 GB.
For the new tablet, three options for communication blocks are provided. Two of them can be used to transmit data through cellular communication type 2G / 3G / 4G, but at the same time cannot work in our CDMA / EVDO networks and do not support domestic LTE frequencies.
Camera
In the iPad 3 tablet, an outdated VGA model of 0.3 mp was implemented as a front camera. In the iPad 4 model front-camera It has a resolution of 1.2 megapixel and supports shooting videos as 720p HD. Of course, she, as well as the previous one, is designed only for communicating on FaceTime, but the picture quality has become much better.
Basic Isight The camera has not changed any changes. It also has a resolution of 5 megapixel and supports the shooting of 1080p / 30 FPS HD videos with stabilization of the image. At the same time, high definition is supported, the color rendition is close to real, autofocus, focusing on the tap and the function of defining persons. 
Food
The new Retina display and hardware capable of maintaining high-resolution graphics led to increased power consumption. The same forced the developers to significantly increase the battery capacity in the iPad 3.
As in the preceding model, the 3.7V 11560mAh lithium polymer battery is installed in iPad 4 (43 W * h), which is only 0.6 mm thick of the batteries with a capacity of 25 W * h. Such an innovation still holds Apple's tablets in the leads on the duration of autonomous work.
See ourselves, from one charge, the iPad 4 tablet allows you to view the video to 10 hours, listen to music or audiobooks for 140 hours or staying in a state of waiting for a month. It is difficult to find similar indicators among other models, if you consider the quality of graphics and system performance.
As mentioned at the beginning of the article, a miniature 8-pin Lightning interface was applied in the tablet, which is almost 80% less than the outdated 30-pin. Now the connector has become completely reversible, so you can not be afraid to insert it not to that side.

Here he is, the display of my dreams without the slightest exaggeration! By the way, overview of the new iPad 3 (The New iPad) can not be done at all, if you just tell about the display, it is really chic. Before that, the coolest display was owned, now a new, very high plank in the resolution of displays is asked. However, the display is not the only big innovation in the novelty.
Appearance and design features
An inexperienced user is unlikely to immediately call ten differences between the designs of the second and third iPad. Because they are only four: the novelty is a bit thicker (9.4 mm against 8.8 in iPad 2), a little harder (652 grams against 601 in Wi-Fi versions), the camera lenses and the synchronization cable socket are now metallic. It's all, nothing new in design I can not note.
Guess where who is!
The thickness increased by 0.6 mm is not as striking, as it feels a little increased weight. Having caught two generations iPad is felt, but I mentioned this difference for the protocol. In fact, there is no discomfort.
Probably, most of all I was interested in the compatibility of accessories with the new generation of iPad, including Smart Cover. As it turned out, all magnets on the spot, Smart Cover works perfectly, even Case dressed without any problems.
Camera
Camera - Isight and start with it. Why? Because if you wanted a sensible mind in the eyes, it is the most best camera Among all devices with the prefix "I". The camera from the iPhone 4 is installed, on top of which optics from the iPhone 4S are installed. And this means a lot! Now there will be a boring info, do not read. The size of the matrix in the last two iPhone generations The same, but on one there is 5 millionpicels, and on the second as much as 8 million means the size of each individual pixel in the iPhone 4 is larger, and therefore it is more sensitive to light. So, this matrix is \u200b\u200bbetter, but why then the iPhone 4S takes off the cooler? It's all about optics, which is much more thorough than in the predecessor. But, if you put a 5 meters matrix in the iPhone 4S, guess what! Pictures will be much better, especially in conditions of insufficient illumination. And we see this picture in iPad 3 (such a name is easier to write).
You can observe the quality of the pictures below, of course, in comparison with the iPhone 4S. (iPad 3 left)
And a few more photos from iPad 3
Agree, the quality of pictures on the highest levelAlthough this comparison is very little to understand what the camera does it takes steeper. But if you remember the past generation iPad. - The difference is colossal! Now we are waiting for Instagram and for iPad!
But in the photo the case does not end, the video is written in 1080p and now you will not look so stupid by raising your iPad at a concert.
Example video shooting on iPad 3 in 1080p
For comparison, example video with iPhone 4S
The camera app itself also has been changed.
Screen
I did not work in vain a review from mentioning a new display. No matter how cool that do not add to the new iPad, it is Retina Display that all waited most of all. But, even though everyone was ready for this, the display quality does not cease to check the user in shock, especially if you used the iPad or iPad 2. The resolution has increased from 1024x768 to 2048x1536 points, with the same diagonal of 9.7 " , and pixel density, respectively, from 132 PPI to 264 ppi. It is noticeable, no matter how cool, even if you do not like to consider pixels, how I love to do it!
Below are some examples to blow your brain. I just discovered several online pages and photographed separate areas With text. Pictures are clickable and I strongly recommend to open examples in full sizeTo estimate the scale of the difference. I think to point out who to the right, and who on the left is unnecessarily.
Reverse side "Retina"
No, the display, as such, there are no minuses. But there is an innovation. For example, that the tablet does not burn in autonomy and continue to work 10 hours at normal load, the battery capacity had to be increased by 70%, respectively, the device thickness and weight increased slightly. But the biggest problem will overtake users of the former generations of the tablet, as well as those who buy 16 GB version. The fact is that developers update their applications by adding new permission to them. And it is correct, but the size of the applications, in this case, increases, often in two or three times. For example, Tweitbot Twitter Client now weighs 9, but 25 MB. Separate applications for iPad 2 or original iPad do not leave, even though they are support for "retina" without anything. Naturally, 16 GB will now be consumed by a minimum twice as fast. If you have not yet had a tablet on iOS and you think that 16 GB will be enough - get up, applications for iPad are very much and in any case, in any time, fill in memory. I recommend to watch at least 32 GB version. Even the size of the screenshots is impressive! Because of this permission, sometimes the screenshots reach 4 MB.
Speed
The iPad 3 has an updated A5X processor with quad-core graphics. In addition, RAM has become twice as much, in comparison with the previous generation. But I noticed one feature, heavy games and applications run on the iPad 3 and on the iPad 2 almost the same, for example, the game Sky Gamblers, which Namco has shown during the announcement of the tablet. Of course, a great permit a little leverals the gain of the feeling of productivity growth. But you can feel the difference you can, in the browser. The iPad 3 pages loads not just faster, the difference between download time is a big abyss. This is especially well noticeable on heavy sites like theverge.com.
Of course, the interface, like the whole software, work on a new iPad solely smoothly.
4G.
If you are not from the USA - you should not worry. Why experience the functions that we simply do not work? But I would buy myself for a version with 4G, because 3G did not go anywhere.
Siri.
There are aunts, very sorry. Instead, there is a Voice Dictation - a set of text with voice. But the Russian language is not supported, buy Android tablets - it is supported there.
Output
iPad 3, or The New iPad - tablet without compromise. If you are just going to buy a tablet - be sure to pay attention to it, the youngest version costs $ 499 in the United States. If you need a tablet cheaper - do not throw immediately towards nukov and kindlov, iPad 2 now costs from $ 399 and this is not enough. Your opinion about iPad new Generation I expressed in, if briefly, Apple left everyone else far behind. Competitors hardly started reaching the iPad 2 in terms of performance, although no one works so quickly, as Apple has released iPad 3. And for the price and quality for the rest is still very far from the current leader among tablets. But there are alternatives if the specifics of the iOS do not suit you anyway, pay attention to the already mentioned, or on, if 10 "you have a lot.
iPad 3 was published in the spring of 2012. He became next after the two generations of Apple creations. He got a lot of new. Some details produced a competitor to Apple - Samsung. As a result of cooperation, we can see the third ipad. What is he, iPad 3 A1430? Product Description will make it possible to understand the possibilities of the novelties.
Characteristics 3 iPad.
This device screen is all. Apple has surpassed itself again. Improved display - improving so many components of the tablet. The novelty is equipped with an excellent display - Retina (Retina). Such a display has a high extension, color saturation and accommodates 3,100,000 pixels. This is 4 times more than that of the 2nd iPad model. Such an extension is superior to many television screens.
The display created by Retina technology has a high pixel density that allows you to hide these pixels from the human eye. The screen installed in the second model has a stronger transmission, in the third screen luminescence is more dull. But at the same time, the transfer of color is excellent, although the transmission of the White goes to warmer shades. Some users noticed that the viewing angle in the new model is slightly less than the previous one. But it is not tragic, because why look at the screen under an extreme uncomfortable angle?
Although the Diagonal of Apad remained, as before 9.7, resolution has changed from 768 * 1024 at 1536 * 2048. Accordingly, the density of pixels in an inch from 132 to 264 increased, the pixel size decreased almost twice as 96 kmk. An amazing feature is that pixels are raised and separated from signals. Therefore, the human eye is not able to distinguish them and sees a picture as a whole.
This technology allows you to take a fresh look at the image transmitted by the device. You can notice what I used to slip away from your view and see photos in more detail and clearly. The transfer of flowers is white deep and live, which never ceases to please the eye.
A5X Dual-core processor allows you to increase by 2 times graphic programs In the tablet, in comparison with the predecessor. This allows you to exit the tablet to a new level of games and their video display. You will be comfortable from the speed and perception of images from the screen. Improved signal processing and it will allow you to reduce "braking" to not. The operational memory of the device with 512 MB has grown to 1024. At the same time, the number of cores of the graphics processor is 4.
The combination of processor power and four graphic cores allows you to display what is happening on the screen smoothly and dynamically. This is an important component for those who love game applications.
The technical characteristics of the iPad 3 allow you to surf on the Internet, communicate in social networks, read, lead active work up to ten o'clock. The capacity of the battery is 11,560 ma * h. The disadvantage in this situation is that for one hundred percent charging from a fully discharged battery is necessary about seven hours. This is not surprising, because the capacity of the battery is increased significantly. The screen is equipped with a oleophobic coating, so you do not need to worry about how to clean it. After all, doing it is easy.
It has a built-in camera on the 5th Megapixel Isight. The optics of this camera is created for iPhone 4S. Focuses with a touch touch. Recognizes individuals yourself, so take pictures easily. You can still record video files as HD 1080P to thirty frames per second. Works stabilization of the image during video shooting.
FaceTime VGA camera allows you to see each other even if you are hundreds of kilometers. It is available through Wi-Fi connection Or with mobile communication. One touch and you see your loved ones! Shoot in good quality video and make high-quality photos became an integral part modern life. Now photos of loved ones have become even better and brighter.
Wi-Fi has purchased a higher speed. He became faster twice. It is dual-band: 2.4 GHz, 5.0 GHz. It is capable of gluing the channel and therefore develops speed up to 150 megabits per second. Work on the Internet will be more pleasant and faster. In addition to Wi-Fi, iPad 3 has 4G. What allows you to use mobile InternetIf Wi-Fi is not available to you, or its signal is very weak.
Apple developers have improved mobile Internet through HSDPA communication up to 21 Mbps. Added the ability to transfer data via DC-HSDPA at a speed of 42 Mbps. The third model has the ability to connect to the LTE network at an affordable speed of 73 Mbps. Of course, if the device is in the coverage area of \u200b\u200bsuch a connection.
Device ability to connect to such large quantity Networks significantly promotes the device to a new level. In the modern world, most of the active life is focused on the Internet, whether it is work or rest, communication in social networks. You can have the ability to access the network and the high transfer rate of a lot determines which technical product to buy for use.
This tablet has an ILIFE program set. Here, the new version of "Garagazband" will allow remotely to combine up to four devices simultaneously. This application allows you to play music and record songs. In another, the application you can use the removed video in order to mount the roller trailer.
The iFoto application allows you to configure it in the images. If you will touch one photo twice, then the system will find all similar images and display them on the screen. Multitouch gestures are able to improve snapshots and you can add different photo processing effects. It's so simple, just a few clicks!
In a collision with difficulties, a Siri assistant will come to the rescue. This assistant will discern not only with the search for questions, but also make a note or recall the meeting. At the same time, Siri understands not only what you say, but also what you mean.
The physical parameters have changed a bit - iPad 3 slot thicker, 9.4 mm, instead of 8.6. The weight of the new model became 50 more grams. It's not too big difference and you are quick to get used to it. Admitted access point mode - Personal Hotspot.
Used SIM card - Micro. There is only one connector for the communication chip. In order to comfortably use the device, IOS version is needed not earlier than 5.1. In order to produce operations with a tablet through program iTunes. The PC requires its update to 10.6.
For the previous model, IOS 4.3 and iTunes 10.2 were enough. For comfortable work, periodically put upgrades. Maximum installed version iOS for iPad 3 is 9.3.5. If you put more new versionThe device will not be able to work correctly.
The model navigation is supplemented with GLONASS support (except Wi-Fi models) and IBeacons . Bluetooth version is now 4.0. HFP profile appeared and pbap , bluetooth support Le.
CONCLUSION: Although there were some not comfortable to use moments as weight and thickness, but the new model pleases with its internal changes. The display assumes images to a new level. Processor combined with rAM and graphics processor Translated the quality of graphics of video games to a new level.
With an updated camera, you can record high-quality video, take a photo and arrange vidososhons. Making communication with close more affordable. Image quality came to a new level and snapshots now to look through even more pleasant. Apple tablets have long been loved by the world, and the company never ceases to please admire fans.
