  • The New iPad goes through Benchmarks, iPad 3 vs iPad 2 vs Transformer Prime vs Galaxy Tab 10.1

    The New iPad goes through Benchmarks, iPad 3 vs iPad 2 vs Transformer Prime vs Galaxy Tab 10.1

    During the launch of Apple’s third-gen iPad, the company made huge claims about the performance of the new A5x chip, claiming that the A5X processor with quad-core graphics provided up to 4x the graphics performance of NVIDIA’s Tegra 3 chip and  2x the graphics performance of the iPad 2?s A5 chip.

    Benchmark data shows the iPad 2?s A5 chip bettering both the A5X and Tegra 3 with the A5X’s improved graphics being used mostly to power the new iPad’s high-resolution Retina display of 3.1 million pixels.

    However when the Screen is in off mode and benchmarks are run, the results of the A5x significantly prove to outperform all remaining devices. 

    For CPU Tegra 3-powered ASUS Transformer Prime and Galaxy Tab 10.1 scored higher in GeekBench than both the iPads:

    Tegra 3?s quad-core configuration blazes past the dual-core A5X, garnering GeekBench scores of 1540 and 750, respectively. Interestingly, the A5X’s average score fell a few points short of the iPad 2?s standard A5 chip, 753. Both the A5X and the A5 also fell shy of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1?s Tegra 2, which received an overall score 905. The gains made by the Tegra 3 are easily chalked up to its two extra cores, but it is also boasts the highest clocking speed of the group at 1.6GHz, compared to the 1GHz clock of the A5X, A5 and Tegra 2.

    – IGN

    For graphics tests with GLBenchmark, iPad 2 scored higher than the third-gen iPad in both tests. 

    For the Egypt test, the iPad 2 (1024×768) produced 6,709 frames at a framerate of 59 frames-per-second, while the new iPad (2048×1536) ran 5,974 frames at 53 FPS and the Transformer Prime (1280×800) generated 5,955 at a rate of 52 FPS. The Galaxy Tab 10.1 (1280×800), on the other hand, produced only 2,465 frames at a surprisingly low 21 FPS.

    -IGN

    The results of the off-screen tests show the A5X producing 15,412 frames at a rate of 138 FPS compared to the iPad 2 that has 10,143 frames at 90 FPS.

  • People : “the New iPad is overheating” , Apple : ” Don’t worry about it”!

    People : “the New iPad is overheating” , Apple : ” Don’t worry about it”!

    New iPad owners on the MacRumors forums and Apple’s own support community complain that the iPad’s  lower left corner is getting warm during extended use. As usual with all new Apple products things tend to go out of hand. So without wasting any time on the matter Apple has issued a statement on the matter.

    The new iPad delivers a stunning Retina display, A5X chip, support for 4G LTE plus 10 hours of battery life, all while operating well within our thermal specifications. If customers have any concerns they should contact AppleCare.”

    Seems fair enough!

    Updates to iMovie & GarageBand

    SAN FRANCISCO-March 7, 2012-Apple today introduced iPhoto for iPad and
    iPhone and major updates to iMovie and GarageBand, completing its
    suite of iLife apps for iOS. iPhoto includes breakthrough Multi-Touch
    features so you can use simple gestures to sort through hundreds of
    photos and find your best shots, enhance and retouch your images using
    fingertip brushes and share stunning photo journals with iCloud.
    iMovie now gives you the ability to create amazing Hollywood-style
    trailers as you record HD video on your iPad and iPhone. GarageBand
    introduces Jam Session, an innovative and fun feature that allows a
    group of friends to wirelessly connect their iOS devices to play
    instruments and record live music together. Each app takes full
    advantage of the stunning Retina display on the new iPad for
    incredibly sharp and realistic images and video. The new iPad also
    features a 5 megapixel iSight camera so you can record, edit and watch
    1080p HD video all on the device.

    “With the introduction of iPhoto, we’ve brought the entire suite of
    iLife apps to iOS and users are going to love it,” said Philip
    Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing.
    “Whether brushing an effect onto a photo, shooting a movie trailer or
    jamming with friends to record a song, iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand
    let you make amazing creations on iPad and iPhone.”

    iPhoto, Apple’s popular photography app, has been completely
    reimagined for iOS to take full advantage of the Retina display and
    intuitive Multi-Touch gestures on iPad and iPhone. Simple gestures can
    be used to select and compare photos side by side and flag your best
    shots. iPhoto gives you full control over colour, exposure and
    contrast, and you simply touch the parts of the image you want to
    change. You can enhance pictures by adding beautiful Apple-designed
    effects with just a tap, or apply adjustments exactly where you want
    them with fingertip brushes. In addition to posting photos to
    Facebook, Flickr and Twitter, you can beam photos between your iPhone
    and iPad; stream photos and slideshows to your Apple TV with AirPlay;
    and use iCloud to publish photo journals to the web and share your
    stories with friends and family in a whole new way.

    iMovie now allows you to turn the HD video on your iPad and iPhone
    into beautiful Hollywood-style trailers, even as you’re recording. The
    new Theater view lets you preview and choose from nine templates in a
    range of genres including Fairy Tale, Superhero and Romance. Trailers
    feature gorgeous, customisable graphics with soundtracks written by
    legendary composers such as Academy Award-winner Hans Zimmer and
    performed by world class musicians like the London Symphony Orchestra.
    You can also share your movie trailers to YouTube, Vimeo and Facebook,
    and use AirPlay to stream them to Apple TV in high definition
    resolutions up to 1080p.

    With the new Jam Session feature in GarageBand, you can invite up to
    three of your friends to get together and wirelessly connect your iOS
    devices to play and record as a group. Jam Session automatically
    synchronises the tempo, key and chords of your Touch Instruments so
    everyone sounds great. After jamming, everyone’s tracks are
    automatically collected on your iOS device for you to edit and mix.
    GarageBand also introduces Smart Strings, a new Touch Instrument that
    allows you to play an entire string orchestra with just one finger,
    and the new Note Editor allows you to fine tune a Touch Instrument
    recording instead of replaying it from scratch. Integration with
    iCloud keeps your GarageBand songs up to date across your iOS devices,
    and you can share your finished songs directly to Facebook, YouTube
    and SoundCloud.

    Apple today also updated its iWork for iOS apps to take advantage of

  • Apple Invitations start rolling out – iPad 3 confirmed for March 7th

    Apple Invitations start rolling out – iPad 3 confirmed for March 7th

    Apple has issued invitations for the the release of their next tablet supposedly called the iPad 3 ( or iPad 2s, knowing Apple) . This also confirms earlier rumors that the Apple iPad 3 will launch on the 7th of March. Looking at the invitation it is easy to make out that it is an invite for the iPad 3 as well as the fact that the resolution of the icon in the image is much better than the resolution of icons on the current iPad, which could possibly mean that the rumors of the new high res display may also be true.

    It will take place on Wednesday, March 7th at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Theater in San Francisco. And Apple says on the invite : “We have something you really have to see. And touch”.

    Expect updates as the event unfolds.

  • Apple has already reportedly ordered 65 Million iPad 3 264ppi displays

    Apple has already reportedly ordered 65 Million iPad 3 264ppi displays

    According to ChinaTimes Apple has already ordered over 65 million displays for its next generation of iPad. The upcoming iPad 3 ( name rumored ) is supposedly said to carry a higher resolution 2,048 by 1, 536-pixel Retina display. The over-all design of the tablet is expected to remain the same, but the big new feature here will obviously be the new Retina display. LG and Samsung have been rumored to be manufacturing the display.

    To take into consideration Apple had ordered only 40 Million iPad 2 displays prior to launch, thats a whopping 66.6% increase.  Also to take into consideration that iPad 2 and the original iPad are the most popular and the number one tablet sold, in sheer numbers. Apple sold over 15 million iPad 2 units in the holiday quarter alone.

    If the specs claimed for the iPad 3 are even halfway there the expect the competition to fizzle down for the tablet from cupertino. The only other hope will lie with the rumored Galaxy Tab 3 and Android ICS, but not to anyway scratch the surface of iPad’s loyalty.
