March this year saw the release of the iPad 3 the first of a series of Apple innovations due on our shelves this year. Apple always seems to succeed in making the new product better than the last one, which is why there is such a clamour and sense of great expectation when a new product is announced.
The iPad 3 is by most accounts better than the iPad 2. Incredibly it has four times the pixels giving the retina display unprecedented clarity for a tablet. It also boasts the A5X chip and every one of its touch screen commands is as slick as we have come to expect from Apple whose technologies are so intuitive they are often like a genuine extension of your thought process - technology acting in an unerringly organic manner.
The iPhone 5 was the subject of the most intense speculation of the entire Apple product line. Sales figures of mobile phones n the last quarter actually fell as people held out for the new iPhone release. This may be to get the previous generation iPhone at a cheaper price, or simply because they desire the iPhone 5 above all others.
The sixth generation iPhone looked like it may have a rather revolutionary upheaval. It seemed safe to presume it’ll have a bigger screen in line with its rival the Samsung Galaxy S3, which at 4 inches was an inch less than people expected. To the great disappointment of many the general style of the phone was not set for a revamp. The most noteworthy features are inductive charging, A6 quad core chip, 4G and near field communication technology. The list of potentialities before release went on with Apple seemingly keen to let people speculate and fantasize.
The release date for the iPhone 5 was the 12th of September along with other potential news on the iPad Mini and the latest large screen iPod touch. It seemed like Apple weren’t inclined to make a mini tablet as it may damage the individuality of their current products. Furthermore, in some people’s eyes, it has no real worth but then there’s clearly a market for such a device as illustrated by the Google Nexus and Galaxy Note.
