HARDWARE AND APPEARANCE: To start of, I-Pad 3 for better or worse is quite similar to the I-PAD 2 albeit a bit heavier and thicker. The new I-PAD weighs 51g/0.11 pounds more than the I-PAD 2 and is 0.6mm thicker than its predecessor. The pure aluminum-made body feels luxurious and good to hold which consumers would like in spite of the fact that there isn't much of a change in terms of appearance if they own a I-PAD 2 already. The only change you might notice in the aluminum chassis is that this time around the shape of the edges is a bit different- a bit more rounded but it is quite difficult to notice unless you compare the I-PAD 2 and I-PAD 3 side-by side.
The front side sports the magnificent new 9.7-inch Retina display( more on this later) the usual home key and a VGA camera which disappoints since there were speculations that Apple might provide a HD front camera but alas! Turn the I-PAD 3 and at its back is the usual Apple symbol right in the middle. Apart from it you would find the 5MP camera( Read on to get more info about it) capable of recording full HD videos. The speakers are unfortunately located at the same lower left position (which in inconvenient since your hands can easily block the speakers while you are holding the tablet). On the sides of the tablet are the usual volume rocker, rotation lock just like they were on the previous I-PAD and a bit separated from these is the Power key( this has been done to allow antennas to do their work without obstruction) and nothing here would cause a concern here.
CAMERA: The camera on an I-PAD hasn't been much worth talking about. firstly, people don't like taking snaps and recording clips with a 9.7 inch thing in hand and second Apple doesn't provide anything worth changing this attitude. In the I-PAD 3 you will find a 5MP rear shooter which can record at 1080p( an increase from 720p on I-PAD 2). By taking a few snaps you will notice that though the camera is just 5MP one, its quality is much better than I-PAD 2 at least. It can take snaps at the rate of 2 shots per second which is strangely half of what I-PAD 2 offers. If you record a few HD videos you would surely notice the difference in quality and thus it can be said that I-PAD 3 won't be criticized much about the camera quality.
