iPad 3 vs iPad 2

Apple new iPad 3 2012 review – iPad 3 and iPad 2 back to back

iPad 3 vs iPad 2 – price and release date

The iPad 2 was – until today – the best tablet in the world and now it's just had £70 knocked off the starting price. So if you're not a pixel junkie, you won't use new apps like iPhoto and the performance bump isn't enough to convince you, then the iPad 2 still stomps over all the tablet competition.

The iPad 3 is available to buy (via Apple Store queues) from Friday 16th March for a starting price of £400 for the 16GB Wi-Fi model or else pre-order from Apple and you're looking at a two to three week wait. 3G/4G models kick off at £500 for 16GB. We'd recommend splurging on as much storage as you can afford – since that Retina Display will drive up the size of apps.

    Ok - the verdict is not to upgrade from iPad 2. As a 1st Generation iPad 64GB 3G owner - what is your recommendation?

    You say the iPad 4 is next year, but a couple of weeks ago you mentioned a further iPad upgrade was possible in October.
    Is this still the case?
