Apple iPad 3 was also the device that brings iOS 5.1 to the masses( well, it’s also on the likes of the iPhone 4S and iPad 2 as well, but hey, we’re not reviewing those today.)
The design of the iPad 3 isn’t really anything different from the original duo from Apple’s tablet range. Actually, while we’re thinking about it, it looks almost identical to the iPad 2 - to the point you’d struggle to tell them apart when turned off.
However, in the hand, there’s a little bit of a difference, especially when it comes to the weight. The new iPad is nearly 60g heavier than the previous iteration, and while it’s not terrible, it does add a little arm strain during a marathon movie session.
