A technologically small but clear improvement upon early 2012’s impressive third-generation iPad, featuring the same screen and rear camera, coupled with a faster processor and improved front camera. Will eventually benefit from doubling of both CPU a
Switch to Lightning port currently offers nearly zero benefit to consumers, while considerably increasing both the cost of and need for new accessories. Continues to require longer recharging time than pre-Retina iPads when used with its own charger,
One year. Two years. Perhaps even three years. Depending on the iPod, iPhone, or iPad model you purchased, it was safe to expect that first-day buyers would have at least a year—perhaps longer—before Apple discontinued the device, sharply reducing its res...
