Ipad 3 or Ipad 2S

TLK · December 15, 2011, 6:13pm

Do you think that next Ipad would be a total face lift from Ipad 2 or just added feature in the current look/design. We learnt from Iphone 3GS and Iphone 4S that apple also knows how to market their product, few features at a time, instead of a total redesign.

I am suspecting Ipad 2S, a similar looking Ipad as Ipad 2, maybe with Siri and better camera and screen resolution, but no design/look change.

iPad 3. How can you live knowing there’s a new product out there that hasn’t made it to your home yet? It would be an insult .
hoping he gets the message

Re: Ipad 3 or Ipad 2S

Here are the expected changes:
-Rimless body, maybe even transparent
-A6 processor
-Much better camera
-Retina display
-Siri

My bet would be iPad3

Re: Ipad 3 or Ipad 2S

Actually I’ve been hearing rumors about iPad Mini. Apple is said to be working on a smaller iPad with a 7.85″ display (see Digitimes).
They are saying it would come out later in 2012. Ipad 3 in Feb 2012.

Re: Ipad 3 or Ipad 2S

there is no such past .. so Ipad 3.
kindle fire failed with smaller screen same goes for nook. it’s the standard.. i don’t think Apple will reduce the screen size, same is true for Iphone from last 4 years.

Re: Ipad 3 or Ipad 2S

I doubt about rimless body and especially about mini ipad. I think market has proved that 7 inch tablets are giant phones than smaller tablets and they are a marketing failure. They failed to deliver a real tablet experience and can never replace a laptop. 10 inch tablets can potentially replace a laptop.

Re: Ipad 3 or Ipad 2S

I suspect iPad3 cause of Siri, Retina display, and the required processor requirement…

Re: Ipad 3 or Ipad 2S

But all this could come in without a facelift. This is what we saw between 4 and 4S

Re: Ipad 3 or Ipad 2S

Honestly you guys should listen to me more when it comes to predicting Apple trend. I said that 1 month ago what experts are seeing/saying/speculating now

Is this an iPad 3 which I see before me at CES?
You’ll never know, according to Jeremy Horwitz, editor-in-chief, iLounge.com, who began a Tuesday blogpost with the sensational claim, “Yesterday, one day ahead of the 2012 CES, I saw what’s supposedly the next-generation iPad.”
“I’d show you a picture, but there’s honestly nothing to be seen,” he continues. “Think iPhone 4 to iPhone 4S: this device so resembles the iPad 2 that differences are only obvious when they’re placed next to each other. From the back, you could walk past this new iPad on display and have no idea that anything had changed.”
**Can it be true? Will Apple actually announce an “iPad 2S?” **
His glimpse of whatever-it-was, which he somehow estimated to be about 6 months old, revealed to him that the next iPad’s body is “roughly 1 mm” thicker than the current iPad, which would look like this. For the metrically challenged, that would be 0.03937 inches, or the thickness of JVCC FELT-06 Polyester Felt Tape.
Not much in terms of “major” or “radical” redesign here: “On the rear, the camera in the upper left corner has become bigger — noticeably so when placed alongside the iPad 2, but not so huge that anyone would think they were different at a distance,” according to Horwitz. “The new camera hole is silver-ringed, and does in fact look the same size as the iPhone 4S’s much-improved rear camera system, minus the LED flash.”

Re: Ipad 3 or Ipad 2S

I would think the next generation would receive a new face. I hope so as I’m sure as hell not buying the 4S.
