iPad 3 impression...sorely disappointed!

Have had my new iPad since Friday and so far I can't see ANY improvemnt in the display quality or in the processor speed.
I'm beginning to wonder if the guts of the thing are really upgraded! The camers port appears a tad larger so I guess it really does have
a better camera but I've not made a comparison of that feature yet.

I guess this will teach me not to buy until I've actually seen a new version in the flesh. I fell for apple's marketing hype.

Unless I'm missing something I would advise folks to just buy an iPad2 and save money. An iPad2 can be had for half the price of the new one
if you are willing to buy a used one.

Oh well, it's still a great product and I am passing my iPad2 on to a family member so it isn't a total loss

 

Wow! That s too bad. The difference between my iPad 2 and 3 display are immediately apparent and quite profound

 

True. The screen upgrade it huge!

 

I'm beginning to wonder if mine really does have the retina display. I've placed them side by side and looked at quite a few differnt screens and can't see any quality
improvement at all in the iPad3. I imagine determining that would be virtually impossible though.

 

Open up iBooks on the iPad 2 and the new iPad, then tell me that you can't see see a difference. Give developers time to upscale apps to utilize the new iPads resolution....people are complaining that they can't see a difference because not all apps are set up for other....give it time.

OK, I'll make the iBooks comparison. Thanks for the tip.

 

some peoples eyes see driffrent stuff then others. like some people tell tell between 720 and 1080p

 

Word!

 

I agree and also it's heavier and thicker I like the feel of the 2 better.

 

The quality improvements are there. It's all in the details. I initially noticed very few and thought the same as you. After a while when you look at an older iPad it will seem slightly fuzzy. When more apps are optimized we will enjoy our iPads more.

That being said I still find my self wondering about the value. If i did not allocate for disposable income I would have kept my other iPads. I think from this point forward I will skip and buy every other generation.

 

I just did and you I can really see the difference......

 

Is that yes or no?

 

When I compared iBooks on the 2 and 3 I really could tell the difference in screens....
