The 32GB iPad with Retina Display and Wi-Fi (4th Gen, Black) from Apple features an incredibly thin design and even more power than its predecessors. The improved Retina display contains 4 times more pixels than the iPad 2 for outstanding clarity and sharpness with both text and images. A newly designed dual-core A6X chip with quad-core graphics provides a great deal of processing power and speed to compensate for the increase in resolution and delivers the same responsive feeling of the former models. This increase in power and resolution all come without the cost of lessened battery life; the iPad still features up to 10 hours of power between charging.
The rear-facing iSight camera incorporates a 5 megapixel backside illuminated sensor for increased lowlight sensitivity as well as great performance in bright situations. Autofocus, tap-to-focus, and tap to set exposure settings provide a range of functions that allow you to achieve the best exposure possible in a quick and intuitive manner. Face detection is also supported and recognizes up to 10 different faces for improved exposure and focus settings when photographing people. In addition to improved still imaging capabilities, the iSight camera also supports full HD 1080p video recording with automatic image stabilization. The camera utilizes a 5-element f/2.4 lens for sharpness and integrates a hybrid infrared filter for greater color fidelity.
All of the internal features function via the robust iOS operating system for extremely fluid navigation and multi-touch use. iCloud support is maintained and allows you to wirelessly sync all of your information and data between multiple devices. And for even greater functionality with your iOS devices, dictation is now supported allowing you to simply talk in order to type. You can speak your emails, texts, notes, or web searches and have the written words automatically appear. A plethora of apps designed specifically for the iPad are also available, easily attained from the App Store. These apps are formatted especially for the vivid 9.7" display and support the integral functions of the device.
- Retina Display
- Improved Retina display provides 4 times more pixels and 44% greater color saturation than the iPad 2. Within the 9.7" LED, 2048 x 1536 pixels render text and images with extreme sharpness. The display also features a fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating for increased resolution during use
- Dual-Core A6X Chip
- The dual-core A6X chip with quad-core graphics support provides a great deal of smoothness while powering substantially more technology. The new chip is able to easily render all of the 3.1-million pixels within the retina display while still retaining a substantial 10 hour battery life. The chip also functions in a way that allows you to touch and go with limited power-up times
- iSight Camera
-
The rear-facing camera now features a 5MP backside illuminated sensor for increased lowlight sensitivity and greater resolution for printable images. While this increase in resolution definitely allows for higher quality imagery, a newly designed 5-element f/2.4 lens also renders images with greater sharpness and definition. A hybrid infrared filter is incorporated as well, for limiting color aberrations and providing greater fidelity when photographing in mixed light situations.
Autofocus, tap-to-focus, and tap to set exposure settings provide a range of functions that allow you to achieve the best exposure possible in a quick and intuitive manner. Face detection is also supported and recognizes up to 10 different faces for improved exposure and focus settings when photographing people. In addition to improved still imaging capabilities, the iSight camera also supports full HD 1080p video recording with automatic image stabilization
- iOS and iCloud
- iOS and iCloud provide the robust backbone for this device to run off of and support the seamless multi-touch interface. Within the iOS system, App Store hosts a plethora of iPad-specific apps designed for the vivid 9.7" Retina display. iCloud functions as a wireless service for you to keep all of your devices synced and maintain the content throughout them
- Siri
- Siri lets you use your voice to send messages, schedule meetings, check the latest scores, and more. Ask Siri to do things just by talking. Siri understands what you say, knows what you mean and even talks back
- AirPlay
- AirPlay functions off of the wireless capabilities of the iPad and allows you to seamlessly watch or listen to your content on your HDTV. When connected to the same wireless network, content can be controlled from the iPad and ported through or watched on auxiliary devices

Comments about Apple 32GB iPad with Retina Display and Wi-Fi (4th Gen, Black):
I have begun to understand why people are such iPad enthusiasts. I have had mine for about one month and have grown very attached to it. It is great for a quick email check, web search, or calendar check. I use it to read Nook books, iTune books, magazines, and carry my meeting notes rather than carry a larger, heavier portable computer and / or briefcase. The camera function is clear and easy to use. It is a significant upgrade from my Nook tablet and I will never go back. The battery life varies depending on what you are doing but I have no complaints. I can read publications, check email, and surf the web all day without having to recharge the battery.

Amazing tablet, huge range of quality apps make it a useful tool and entertainment device.
I am using Apple's free iBook Author program to create interactive iBooks for the iPad.
("Birds of Martha's Vineyard" bernierland.com)
I have have found both Apple's iCloud and the apps from the google universe work fine and so give you the widest range of options.
Very pleased with the device. Retina display is awesome. Quality construction.

Comments about Apple 32GB iPad with Retina Display and Wi-Fi (4th Gen, Black):
I recently purchased this product at B+H. |This is the 6th ipad that I have bought for personal use or as a gift and this is the best one yet. The upgrade on previous ipads is excellent and I'm sure my nephew will enjoy the retina display as he is a techno geek.
This was my first experience of shopping in B+H the store was recommended by a bar tender and he was right the service is excellent, the staff are knowledgable and helpful and the experience during a very busy shopping period was excellent.

Comments about Apple 32GB iPad with Retina Display and Wi-Fi (4th Gen, Black):
This is the second iPad I've ordered from B&H in the same year. The first was a 3rd gen and I loved it but when the 4th gen came out, my dad offered to buy my 3rd gen. So I backed up my 3rd gen to iCloud then began setting it all up for my dad while awaiting delivery of my 4th gen. It came in the mail soon after my dad got his. I turned on my new iPad and restored it from my last backup in iCloud and we've been using FaceTime almost every day and having such a great time keeping in touch from either ends of the country. Now we are starting to play games with each other in GameCenter. We share photos using PhotoStream and apps like Instagram. Every other day I'm giving my dad iPad lessons and it's great because we have all the same apps and we're looking at the same things on screen so we walk through it together. The iPad really is fun for the whole family no matter where you are and what age!

Comments about Apple 32GB iPad with Retina Display and Wi-Fi (4th Gen, Black):
Having never owned an Apple produce, I'm used to the instability of Microsoft/Windows products. So far this operating systems has been very stable and easy to use.
Finding Apps is easy as would be expected by the industry leader.
WiFi connection was very easy and connected to the fastest setting on my wireless router.
The Siri voice activated help has been relatively worthless with it misunderstanding virtually all questions.
Figuring out Apple's sign-in requirements for downloading apps was a bit annoying with my wife and I having to figure out how to sign in and out so we did not have to infringe on each others accounts.

Comments about Apple 32GB iPad with Retina Display and Wi-Fi (4th Gen, Black):
I have begun to understand why people are such iPad enthusiasts. I have had mine for about one month and have grown very attached to it. It is great for a quick email check, web search, or calendar check. I use it to read Nook books, iTune books, magazines, and carry my meeting notes rather than carry a larger, heavier portable computer and / or briefcase. The camera function is clear and easy to use. It is a significant upgrade from my Nook tablet and I will never go back. The battery life varies depending on what you are doing but I have no complaints. I can read publications, check email, and surf the web all day without having to recharge the battery.

The customer service was perfect. With no shipping and taxes, I was able to get a few extra items, too. I received the IPad 4th generation in less than a week.

Comments about Apple 32GB iPad with Retina Display and Wi-Fi (4th Gen, Black):
Amazing tablet, huge range of quality apps make it a useful tool and entertainment device.
I am using Apple's free iBook Author program to create interactive iBooks for the iPad.

I have have found both Apple's iCloud and the apps from the google universe work fine and so give you the widest range of options.
Very pleased with the device. Retina display is awesome. Quality construction.

I'm just learning about this wonderful ipad 4. As a pc and windows user, this is going to be a real learning experience -- and possibly my most pleasant computer one! Your packing, on-line availability, and totally professional handling of my purchase was a delight. Thank you.

Still a awesome product but we will need to wait for apps and games that can use this A6 to see any difference with the 3th gen ipad.

Comments about Apple 32GB iPad with Retina Display and Wi-Fi (4th Gen, Black):
I recently purchased this product at B+H. |This is the 6th ipad that I have bought for personal use or as a gift and this is the best one yet. The upgrade on previous ipads is excellent and I'm sure my nephew will enjoy the retina display as he is a techno geek.
This was my first experience of shopping in B+H the store was recommended by a bar tender and he was right the service is excellent, the staff are knowledgable and helpful and the experience during a very busy shopping period was excellent.

Portability & wonderful display are key items here.
Features such as icloud syncs with my other macs.
There is a learning curve but definitely worth the effort.

Comments about Apple 32GB iPad with Retina Display and Wi-Fi (4th Gen, Black):
Retina screen is amazing to see pictures and play games. Is very lightweight (compared to 1st gen). The battery life does not seem good when brightness is auto. Now, I set brightness to minimum and I am testing the battery life again.

Comments about Apple 32GB iPad with Retina Display and Wi-Fi (4th Gen, Black):
This is the second iPad I've ordered from B&H in the same year. The first was a 3rd gen and I loved it but when the 4th gen came out, my dad offered to buy my 3rd gen. So I backed up my 3rd gen to iCloud then began setting it all up for my dad while awaiting delivery of my 4th gen. It came in the mail soon after my dad got his. I turned on my new iPad and restored it from my last backup in iCloud and we've been using FaceTime almost every day and having such a great time keeping in touch from either ends of the country. Now we are starting to play games with each other in GameCenter. We share photos using PhotoStream and apps like Instagram. Every other day I'm giving my dad iPad lessons and it's great because we have all the same apps and we're looking at the same things on screen so we walk through it together. The iPad really is fun for the whole family no matter where you are and what age!

Comments about Apple 32GB iPad with Retina Display and Wi-Fi (4th Gen, Black):
Having never owned an Apple produce, I'm used to the instability of Microsoft/Windows products. So far this operating systems has been very stable and easy to use.
Finding Apps is easy as would be expected by the industry leader.
WiFi connection was very easy and connected to the fastest setting on my wireless router.
The Siri voice activated help has been relatively worthless with it misunderstanding virtually all questions.
Figuring out Apple's sign-in requirements for downloading apps was a bit annoying with my wife and I having to figure out how to sign in and out so we did not have to infringe on each others accounts.
