The new fourth generation iPad features the amazing 9.7-inch Retina display and includes a new Apple-designed A6X chip that delivers up to twice the CPU performance and up to twice the graphics performance of the A5X chip, all while delivering an incredible 10 hours of battery life in the same thin and light iPad design. Other new features include a FaceTime HD camera, twice the Wi-Fi performance when compared to previous iPad models and support for additional LTE carriers worldwide.
The new, new iPad was a surprise announcement. Most people seemed to be expecting simply an updated iPad 3rd Gen with a Lightning connector, rather than an upgraded iPad. Presumably, the A6X CPU is similar to the A6 in the just released iPhone 5, but additional GPU power to run the larger Retina display. Also worth noting the WiFi performance increase, which has been one of the selling points of Amazon's new Kindle Fire HD.
