Despite unveiling the third-generation iPad just seven months previously, Apple has launched its fourth-generation tablet. The
new device uses the company’s own A6X chip, a new processor that further improves upon the speed performance of the A6.
Apple claims that it’s twice as fast as the A5X, with double the graphics performance. It gets the same 10 hours battery life as the third-generation iPad. New to the fourth-generation iPad is a FaceTime HD front-facing camera and a Lightning port that replaces the 30-pin connector of old. And, according to Apple, the Wi-Fi is twice as fast as in the previous generation. The new tablet replaces the iPad 3 completely, and sits in the impressive new iPad line-up, alongside the iPad 2 and mini. It follows the same pricing as the third iPad did,starting at £399.
