I still have +not+ opened mine ... but when I do, and get everything restored, I'll give Real Racing 2 a shot. It had some frame-rate issues (minor, but noticeable) but my 3rd gen definitely got very warm.
Very fast...
I'm so happy...
So far I love it. There are a few magazine (newsstand) apps that seem to be incompatible with the iPad 4, but I'm sure they will update them soon. Other than that, it is great. Faster, more fluid, and the wifi really is faster too.
My main reason for getting it was because I was out of space on my 32gig iPad 3, I'd regretted not getting the 64gig version from the outset. So I figured I'd upgrade.
The one thing is when I plug it in to my PC's USB port (to sync or whatever) it says "not charging". Does it NEED 12W to charge? Not a big deal, i rarely plug it in to my computer.
Many USB ports don't provide voltage to spec. I know late model MBPs do, but even then, it's far slower charging vs. using the supplied 10/12w wall wart
How is PDF rendering on the 4 in iBooks? On the 3 it is really noticable particularly if there are illustrations. You can watch the sectors improve in clarity which is unpleasant.
Call me crazy but this is my iPad 4 experience...
I have bought every iPhone 64GB from the first, upgraded every year and loved them all. I bought the first iPad and have held on to it through the iPad 2 and iPad 3. I gave iPad 4 a chance and pre ordered day 1.
I got the iPad 4 today and I am frankly let down. I also ordered the iPad smart case and was even more let down. The fit on the case is horrendous. I played with the iPad 4 for about three hours and I just can't justify keeping it. I have a perfectly good iPad 1 sitting here. I am returning the iPad 4 tomorrow (and that ridiculous smart case).
The iPad 1 case was amazing, I don't know what apple strayed from it. The iPad 4 IS faster and has the retina display, I get it. But those are not worth the $750. I don't understand people who say their apps start 1 second faster... A SECOND? I am optimistic that the iPhones will keep rocking but these iPads are just not worth the upgrades.
? iPad 3 was low resolution? Please explain. Did Apple upgrade the iPad 4 panel or are you implying LG > Samsung?
my ipad 4 is running hot on the lower left corner, just like the 3 did. Peformance is good though.
Was able to scroll through a 500MB PDF , pretty easily as compared to the 3.
