Hey all.
I've been using an iPad 3 as my main device for the last six months - since launch day. I like it, but it's a little heavier than I'd like and I can't hold it one handed without putting painful strain on my fingers. I was thinking of selling it. Yes, I am pissed I didn't get to see a whole year.
Originally I wanted to go for the iPad mini - it's 7.9" which is one of my favourite screen sizes. Unfortunately it lacks the Retina display and only has an A5. Size means a lot to me, but I really want the specs too. If I buy one of the minis, I can also afford 4G LTE... Which is pretty damn cool.
The dilema is, the iPad 4 is 2x as powerful and has the Retina display. I'd still not be super satisfied with the weight/dimensions.
I guess my main questions are:
-Is the A5 powerful enough for most usage?
-What happens when newer apps make use of the A6?
-Is 160 PPI still crisp?
-Is LTE worth it? (Australian LTE at any rate.)?
Thanks in advance!
