Features
Breakthrough Retina display. It’s even more than meets the eye.
The Retina display on iPad makes everything look crisp and lifelike. Text is razor sharp. Colors are vibrant. Photos and videos are rich with detail. All thanks to its 3.1 million pixels — a million more pixels than an HDTV.
Powerful A6X chip. High speeds ahead.
The new A6X chip inside iPad is up to twice as fast as the previous-generation A5X chip, and it delivers up to twice the graphics performance, without sacrificing battery life. Which means even the most advanced apps are smooth, responsive, and incredibly lifelike.
Over 300,000 apps. There’s almost no limit to what you can do.
Apps for iPad aren’t like anything else. That’s because every app — 300,000 and counting — is designed specifically for iPad. And with apps in just about every category, you can do things like make a commute more entertaining, a presentation more interesting, or a school lesson more inspiring, right from your iPad.
Ultrafast Wireless. Make faster connections. The world over.
The new iPad with Retina display features advanced Wi Fi that’s up to twice as fast as any previous-generation iPad. And access to more cellular data networks around the world makes it fast in more ways than one, and in many more places.
FaceTime and iSight cameras. Now there are even more reasons to smile.
The iPad features Apple’s 5-megapixel iSight camera. Designed with advanced optics, it lets you shoot gorgeous photos and record HD video in full 1080p. FaceTime on iPad puts you face-to-face — even when you’re miles apart.
iOS. The world’s most advanced mobile operating system.
iOS is the magic behind iPad. It lets you see and do everything using Multi-Touch. It includes all the powerful, innovative, and fun built-in apps you use every day, many times a day. It’s the preferred choice for app developers. And it’s yet another reason no other device comes close to iPad.
iCloud. Your content. On all your devices.
iCloud stores your music, photos, apps, mail, contacts, calendars, documents, and more and wirelessly pushes them to all your devices. So if you buy a song, take a photo, or edit a calendar event on your iPad, iCloud makes sure it appears on your Mac, iPhone, and iPod touch, too. You don’t have to do a thing.
AirPlay. Play it on your iPad. Watch it on your HDTV.
Whether it’s the new album you bought, photos of your Barcelona escapade, or an HD movie, AirPlay lets you stream what’s on your iPad straight to your speakers and HDTV.
Dictation. Talking is the new typing.
Write an email. Send a text. Search the web. Or create a note. And do it all with only your voice. Instead of typing, tap the microphone icon on the keyboard. Then say what you want to say while your iPad listens. When you’re done, tap anywhere on the screen and, just like that, your spoken words become written words. Dictation also works with third-party apps, so you can do things like update your Facebook status or share a thought on your Twitter feed.
