Going from an iPad one, to an iPad three was amazing! The screen display is so clear; to have a built-in camera is fantastic, and it makes uploading pics a breeze as compared to doing it by phone! Now I can download all the new programs! It's everything +
What I would LOVE to see included, that would be an enormous bonus, would be to have the iPad have a built in stylus that can be pulled out and used, then slid back into a secure spot. Now that would rock 'n roll! I love it, at this point, I use this almost exclusively. My laptop is lonely and covered with dust, lol. Keep up the great work!

Ipad is really good and very easy to use it. Battery back up is amazing and performance is awesome. Capturing picture at lightening speed is amazing and quality of pics are excellent.
Front camera doesn't give good quality picture.

Got this unit on sale. Very great to travel with and it even gives you full view with most websites and not the mobile sites. Only downfall is no flash player built in which is what a lot of websites use. Also it doesn't come with a calculator built in like the iPhone ( not a deal breaker just would make sense to have one) and I do wish you could get Microsoft office on it . By other than those items great product and I get to sync my apps between devices that way I don't have to download them twice

I thought I had to have one but find that I don't use it nearly as much as I thought I would. However, when I do, I love the screen and how bright and clear it is. A little on the pricey side, but that comes with all Apples.

Nice upgrade from iPad 1st generation
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I upgraded to the new iPad 3 from a first generation iPad. I've also compared it extensively to the iPad 2. The latest iPad is definitely an improvement from the Ist generation, but the leap from the iPad 2 is not so great that I'd recommend running out and getting it without checking out the less expensive and still available iPad2.
Firstly, the display on the iPad 2 is great and very sharp. The retina display on the "3" is noticeably crisper when reading text on the screen. The color depth is marginally better, but the price you pay for the improved display is a shorter battery life. Higher resolution means more power consumption. The camera on the rear is heads and shoulder better than the iPad2, but most people don't rely on their iPad for high resolution photography. My first gen iPad doesn't have any cameras on it, so the ability to face time with the iPad 3 is a bonus (one that the iPad2 accomplishes equally well).
Lastly the new processor is faster than the iPad2. In most applications you are likely not to notice a huge bump in speed, but is significantly faster than the first generation iPad. The 4G LTE might be something to talk about when real 4G networking becomes available in my city.
Bottom line, do I love it? Yes. Would I buy it if I already owned an iPad2 ? Probably not,( especially if you are interested in a WiFi only model).
