Apple iPad 4 with Retina Display | New Apple iPad Review

New iPad 4 Review Update

Apple has now announced that a 128GB version of the iPad 4 will be available to buy. It will go on sale on 5/2/13 and will cost £639 for Wi-Fi-only and £739 for Wi-Fi and Cellular.

It's only been seven months since Apple brought us the iPad 3, or new iPad, and now we have the iPad 4, or fourth generation iPad with Retina display. Read our iPad 4 review to find out what's new.

Apple iPad 4 Design and Build Quality

There's no mistaking the iPad 4 from the previous version of Apple's tablet. Oh wait, yes there is. Once again, the iPad looks no different with Apple sticking to the same rectangular shape with rounded corners and edges.

There's no change in dimensions so it's 186 x 241 x 9.4mm and 652g (662g for the cellular model). Of course if you don't like the size of the iPad, there's now the iPad mini as a smaller option.

iPad with Retina Display Video Review

There's not a great deal of change when it comes to the iPad 4 cameras. Those hoping for an 8Mp rear camera will be disappointed to find it's still the same 5Mp iSight camera found on the iPad 3.

It's unsurprising then that results are similar – a useful camera if you don't mind using a device as large as an iPad for taking snaps. The only change is the addition of a back-illuminated sensor which should help in low light situations.

The bigger, and more useful change is the front facing camera which is now a 1.2Mp FaceTime HD shooter capturing up to 720p footage. This offers a much higher quality picture than before making your Photo Booth pictures better and, provided broadband speeds are fast enough, improved Skype and FaceTime calls.
