Controversial New iPad
Apple’s new iPad has been the most attractive product in the tablet PC market. As the iconic product in 2012, the third generation
hp laptop battery of Apple’s new iPad has been involved in disputation right after its announce. The new iPad differs from its predecessors in terms of its name, heating value and thickness. So why does this new type arouse such great disputation?
Standing in Apple’s perspective
We are always pointing out the drawbacks of Apple’s products. However, standing from the point of Apple, how difficult it is to make innovations! Confronting global integrative competition, Apple, however, remains its abnormal attitude towards its products. It requires to make innovation whenever launching a new product. For example, it installs Retina with iPhone, and Siri with 4S. This time, the innovation made on the new iPad is the 2048-by-1536 screen, a product with the highest resolution available in the current market! In fact, it is an arduous project, let alone its one-year-period. Of course, the new iPad has to scarify thickness, weight, heating value and quad-core processor to bring forth new products, which, indeed, are heavy prices.
What problems should be considered from points of consumers?
The new iPad is heavier and thicker than its predecessors, along with higher heating value. And what it has, despite these problems, is the 2048-by-1536 screen. So, what questions will consumers inevitably ask when faced with the new iPad? The main point is whether it is worth buying? What about its 2048-by-1536 screen? Will its deeper thickness, heavier weight and larger heating value affect its working efficiency?
A special form in making evaluation
Compared with the form of past 10 periods, the current issue differs from the past ones. Instead of collecting evaluating essays towards single product from every medium and making a summary of writer’s opinions to provide users with information about relative products, both good and bad, we are applying the form of question-answer to conclude major problems which consumers are concerned about, and then finding answers from media.
Question 1: How well does the 2048-by 1536 Retina screen work?
About screen:
Now, let’s talk about the 2048-by-1536 screen. This screen is the most essential innovation, for which Apple has paid a heavy price. Well, there are many problems with this screen. Can it really work so well? Are there any distinct when we watch with our eyes? Let’s follow what the media say.
Tests from PConline
The increase of resolution doesn’t represent pain in watching
Many people confound the concept of display with Apple’s devices, but they are different indeed. In Windows, even if its resolution is the same, the smaller the size of the display, the more painful it is to watch scripts. This problem lies in the UI of Windows which hasn’t been made well, and in the non-changes of pixels that the scripts take up. If employing the DPI equipped with Win7 system itself, although the scripts are magnified, but some sawteeth will appear on other icons, thus contributing to normal effect.

The new iPad performs better in terms of pixel support for contrast text
From pages of system settings and screenshot webpage we can find that the new iPad performs better in terms of pixel support for contrast text. Though there is little difference between the two when looking at the images with the same resolution, we can see in details that the new iPad eliminates the sawtooth on images of the webpage. In other words, under the same application environment, the new iPad provides better browsing experience.
Question 2: What are other characteristics worth our concern in addition to the screen of new iPad?
Other new characteristics deserving our attention
Apart from the screen, the most essential brightness, there are other new features deserving our attention. For instance, the 0.7Mpix camera of the iPad2 can only be described as “the weakest”, while that of the new iPad has been updated greatly, with up to 5Mpix and supporting 1080p camera.
Besides, inside the new iPad is a new voice recognition system and new application of iPhone. As for these new characteristics, we can get to know more about them through media’s introduction.
From Home of Computer Web:
The capacity in shooting photos of the new iPad’s rear camera wins favorable reputation
Changes on the 5Mpix camera in the new iPad are very obvious. Soon after you take pictures with it, you will make favorable comments on it instead of giving bad reviews as that of the last generation. Yet, in terms of specific image performance, it doesn’t work as well as iPhone4. But it is normal for such occurrence in light of the severe electromagnetic interference happening to its ultrasharp.
From ZOL
iPhone is one of its highlights
As an iSO software integrated with image editing and management, iPhone has made its first appearance in Apple’s iPad platform, and will solve existing weakness in the picture management. Meanwhile, it supports modification functions, including adjusting the tone of pictures and color temperature. One figure tip can process pictures immediately.
From PCPOP:
The light leaking control of the new iPad is better than that of iPad2
The problem of light leaking happening to iPad 2 aroused consumer’s attention. Now let’s check whether the new iPad would have such problem through tests taken under completely black condition. From the comparison we find that the new iPad has such a problem with faint light leaking from its corner pins but not so serious as that of new iPad2.
Question 3: What do you know about the high heating value of the new iPad?
About the exothermic problem:
As what has been mentioned before, it is not easily to make innovation. Apple has scarified a lot in order to make innovation on the new iPad. A serious of side effect caused by UXGA has attracted media’s attention. For example, the number of screen LED backlight of the new iPad is 2.5 times as much as that of its last generation, while its processors with larger size has a greater demand for its battery volume. Under the circumstance that no improvement has been made on the working life, the battery volume of the new iPad, twice as large as its predecessor, will inevitably exacerbate its heating value, and the charging time will double. As for such kind of problem, what else should we know?
From Tweakers.net:
After operating the new iPad and the iPad2 for 5 minutes and testing their temperatures, the Tweakers.net finds out that the difference between the two is as much as 10 degrees! According to its report, the temperature of the new iPad reaches 33.6℃(83 Fahrenheit), while that of iPad2 is 28.3℃(83 Fahrenheit).
From PCPOP:
Heating problem
Maybe those “cool” devices of the Apple won’t be “cool” any longer in the future. The problem is its products are very “hot”. In the forum for Apple’s users, many people laugh at the problem, saying “Apple finally makes it come true to complete multitasks-both surfing online and baking bread!”
From Apple
Apple claims that its new product meets standard requirements
One representative of Apple expressed his views on this problem, saying that the new iPad is installed with a HD screen and an A5X processor, supports 4G LTE network with its running time up to 10 hours.” He continued to explain that all the operating temperatures of the new iPad are confined to reasonable range, and consumers can contact AppleCare if they have any question about it.
Question 4: What other problems does the new iPad have?
Other problems:
In addition to the high heating value caused by SXGA, many professional media discover changes on other aspects, which are easily undetectable for household consumers. Take its acoustical testing for an example. Some media find out that the acoustical effect of the new iPad is inferior to iPad2. Moreover, the design of magnet in the new iPad has been changed, but its magnetic fore is not as strong as that of iPad2. Now let’s see what professional media have found.
From PCPOP:
New iPad doesn’t support HDMI adapter
Many users say that a hint of “Incomparable” will occur when they use Digital AV Adapter. According to their response, we have done a test. As a result, we find that a hint of “No support for subordinate devices” will appear soon after the old adapter has been plugged. After the test, we also find that there is nothing wrong with the input of vga port, neither any hint occurs, either. But when the HDMI is plugged in, the new iPad is not able identify it, thus occurring the hint.
From PCPOP:
Tone quality of the new iPad degenerates a lot
Compared with other tablet PCs, the new iPad performs well in terms of sound. But compared with its predecessors, its tone quality falls behind. Although consumers won’t take the tone quality as the first factor for consideration, is it virtous and sincere enough for Apple, who is always in the pursuit of perfect, to have such device?
Question 5: What’s the final comment the professional media will make?
Some disputation about the new iPad
Whatever you say, the new iPad has come. Some say it has made progress with advanced effect on its screen, while some complain its degeneration due to its problems in thickness, weight and heating value.
I have to admit that it is a new type product causing great controversy. Compared with iPad1 and iPad2, this new iPad hasn’t been improved from all aspects. Hence, what do other professional media think of it? And what are their views?
From IT168 Web
Kuck is not Steve Jobs
If you have finished reading the above and are about to read this one, I believe you have had a better understand towards the new iPad. It works as smoothly as iPad in the system interface. What’s more, improvement has been made on its game experience, screen effect, shooting photos and recording videos. However, for users of the iPad2, there is no special reason to update the New iPad.
From PConline
Whether it can be popularized is a problem
After updating the screen, it still guarantees 10 hours of working life, and brings the tablets into a HD era, thus making others fall behind. With more magnificent comprehensive capacity, it will and will continue to dominate the tablet market. But the question is: in the age of flagship application experience, when will this application suitable for full HD be popularized? If Apple can solve this problem, the new iPad will surely continue to take the lead.
Suggestions for household consumers

Just try to understand Apple:
Referring to the new iPad, the majority of media have made good comments on its new screen performance, but it keeps suffering from disputation, or even criticism owing to its numerous side effects caused by the HD screen, including higher heating value, deeper thickness and heavier weight and the like. Here, I want to say, just forgive it, try to understand its position. It is, indeed, not easy to make innovation. And it is impossible for consumers to require Apple to launch a new and perfect product all the time. This is similar to the condition of Lin, Shuhao, who makes himself famous. It is very hard for him to achieve all-star performance in each game after being studied and guarded by his opponents. You have to know that even Kobe Bryant still has the time of not performing as well as he usually does.
Worth buying or not?
After reading so many contents, there is only one question consumers remain uncertain: whether the new iPad is worth to buy or not? According to my opinion, if you haven’t bought an iPad before and desire one, it is worth buying, especially for those users who love watching electronic books and magazines. The unlimited magnified vector text, with the help of Retina screen, can bring perfect visual experience. The difference between the new iPad and iPad2 in terms of screen experience is rather great, which is like the different feelings in watching iPhone4 and iPhone3GS. If, however, you already have an iPad2 and are not a crazy fan of Apple, you’d better avoid buying another one. After all, it is not worthy of selling the iPad2 to buy the new iPad just for the visual improvement. Besides, iPad2 has its advantages in terms of thickness and weight.
