this is the os device of which was only sold for seven 7 months months. and it's the ipad 3, or as apple called it "the new ipad" which is an interesting which we'll get second. so first things the good about this ipad? actually get 4g Ite on this before the iphones which is pretty cool. secondly, this was the first retina ipad, which is a huge deal because the ipad 2 pixilated screen and this doesn't. great on this. to this day, apple still uses this resolution. he went from a 0.7 megapixel fixed focus camera on the ipad up to a 5 megapixel autofocus camera, which actually looks pretty decent overall some pretty solid upgrades. but apple upgraded it in the same year. 2012, but in october with the ipad 4, which was called the "retina ipad" wait, that's a red flag because as well. so why did apple call it the exact reason we'll never know but there's a good chance that apple just wanted that the ipad 3 ever existed. of course. first they moved on the same exact came out, best look. also, no. 2. the a5x that powered this retina wasn't really ready for all those pixels, by the fact that the ipad 2 could actually of graphics quicker just because it less pixels to deal with, while this was just slower. final nail in the coffin is the ipad three uses this very archaic 30 pin while the ipad 4 replaced with lightning cable that was released 5. so yeah, apple probably doesn't want you remembering that but i'm here to remind you

This is the OS device of which was only sold for seven 7 months months. And it's the iPad 3, or as Apple called it "the new iPad" which is an interesting which we'll get second. So first things what are the good about this iPad? actually get 4G LTE on this before the iPhones which is pretty cool. Secondly, this was the first Retina iPad, which is a huge deal because the iPad 2 pixilated screen and this doesn't. great on this. To this day, Apple still uses this resolution. He went from a 0.7 megapixel fixed focus camera on the iPad up to a 5 megapixel autofocus camera, which actually looks pretty decent overall. Some pretty solid upgrades. But Apple upgraded it in the same year. 2012, but in October with the iPad 4, which was called the "Retina iPad" Wait, that's a red flag because as well. So why did Apple call it that? We'll never know the exact reason but there's a good chance that Apple just wanted that the iPad 3 ever existed. Of course. First they moved on in the same exact year that it came out, which isn't the best look. Also, no. 2. The A5X that powered this Retina display wasn't really ready for all those pixels, and it showed by the fact that the iPad 2 could actually load a lot of graphics quicker just because it had less pixels to deal with, while this was just slower. And then the final nail in the coffin is the iPad 3 uses this very archaic 30-pin while the iPad 4 replaced with the all-new Lightning cable that was released 5. So yeah, Apple probably doesn't want you remembering that but I'm here to remind you
