The Bad Of The New iPad 2012 : Overheating and Charging Problems ?

Many people glorify to The New iPad, many people are increasingly curious about how is the new iPad. So many great people willing to buy an iPad 3 (New iPad). But not everything is perfect. The new iPad you yearning longing is not necessarily satisfactory as ye wish. In addition to these advantages, there must any te bad to be found in an the new iPad. So, before buying an iPad a good idea to know what is the advantages and what is the bad of the new iPad.

For example for the bad of the new iPad, The following comments were taken directly from Apple's iPad discussion boards:
Received my new iPad today and I love the new screen...but right off I noticed that it gets really-really hot.  I have the original iPad and have used it for hours at a time and it has never, ever got hot.  Is this normal?  I don't like it...it makes the iPad hard to use for a long period.
There's some debate as to what is causing the overheating.  If you browse the forums, users are saying it's everything from not using a leather case, to the screen being too awesome, to the processor being more powerful, to the 4G having to use so much power.  The battery has increased from 25W to 50W, so a bigger battery probably produces more heat.
In some cases, the iPad has gotten so hot that an error screen appeared, stating that the iPad needs to cool down before you can use it.
In addition to overheating problems, users have also been complaining about long and slow charge times.
I have had my shiny new iPad plugged in overnight with its included iPad charger. I have just woken up and it's only at 39%!!!
Other people complained that it only charges 1% in 20 minutes, with a lot of customers stating that it's a genuine issue that needs to be addressed immediately.  One of the theories to the charging issues is:
Seems after some serious testing its very clear apple should have (or should now in the future) release a better charger.  One that speeds up times but also crucially allows it to be heavily used while still getting a decent charge.
Maybe it is the charger.  The iPad continues to get more and more powerful — might be time to make a better charger, Apple.  If you're experiencing any of these problems, I recommend taking it to a Apple store so one of their "Geniuses" can help you out.  Don't let them tell you that the overheating is normal; make them give you a solution.

The New iPad 2012 Countries Availability

The new iPad, or iPad 3, released today in 25 additional countries, just a week after the original launch. This is the first iPad to offer 4G LTE wireless, and so we were naturally quite eager to load up Speed Test and see what it could do. For those looking for the full-on review effect, the new iPad is still a slinky thing.

Sure, its 9.4mm thickness won't win it any awards (especially since that's .6mm thicker than the iPad 2), nor will its 652g (1.4-pound) heft (51g / .11 pounds more than before), but it feels neither big nor heavy. It instead feels substantial. Dense. It's carved from a hunk of aluminum and there's a cavity in there where the (now bigger) battery and other internals reside, but if you didn't know any better you'd think it were completely solid. To know more get The New iPad 2012 if that has available in your country.

According to Gamezone, The third-generation iPad went on sale internationally at 8 a.m. PST, officially become available in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Macau, Mexico, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and Sweden.

“Customers are loving the incredible new features of iPad, including the stunning Retina display, and we can't wait to get it into the hands of even more customers around the world this Friday," said Philip Schiller, senior vice president of worldwide marketing, in response to the successful initial sales of the iPad 3.

In a press statement released a few days after the new iPad's release, it was revealed that 3 million units of the new iPad 3 were sold in only four days, making last Friday's launch the most successful on yet in the device's history.

The new iPad is available through the Apple Online Store, Apple's retail stores, or select Apple Authorized Retailers. The price of New iPad is difference depending on countries to provide.

Sony Xperia Neo L Specs and Price

Sony has announced its first Ice Cream Sandwich phone, and the follow up to the Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, in the form of the Sony Xperia Neo L.

Also known as the less fancy sounding MT25i, the Xperia Neo L will come packing with specs a single-core 1GHz processor, 512MB of RAM, 1GB of internal storage, 4-inch (854 x 480) display and a 5MP camera with 720p video recording.

The Xperia Neo L looks set to land solely in China for the time being, with no clear sign of if it will venture elsewhere in the world yet.

So far Sony has released the Xperia S, Xperia P, Xperia U and Xperia Sola handsets, which we were disappointed to find all ran Android Gingerbread 2.3 – with a promise of an upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich later this year.

Floating Touch Feature on Sony Experia Sola

Interact with the Xperia Sola without even touching it


The new Xperia™ sola announced earlier today, includes a brand new touch sensor technology, called floating touch, that lets you interact with the phone without even touching it

There are two types of capacitive sensors used for touch screens, mutual capacitance and self-capacitance. Mutual capacitance makes multi-touch detection possible. Self-capacitance generates a stronger signal than mutual capacitance, which allows accurate detection of the finger further away from the sensors. However, with self-capacitance it is not possible to perform multi-touch detection due to an effect called “ghosting”.

Mutual capacitance makes multi-touch possible
With mutual capacitance, each intersection of a line in the illustration above forms a parallel plate capacitor. This means that each intersection is a sensor, which allows for true multi-touch since the position of each finger can be exactly measured.

However, because the area of the intersection between two lines is very small, the electrical field of the sensor is also small. Since the field of the sensor is so small, the signal from it has a low strength. This makes it poor for sensing very small signals, like when the user’s finger hovers above the screen.

sony experia sola image
Self capacitance and the ghosting effect
Looking at the graphs above, each X or Y line as whole is a capacitive sensor, in the case of self capacitance. This means that the sensors are larger compared to the mutual capacitance described above. The large sensors create strong signals, which make it possible to detect the user’s finger up to 20 mm above the screen.

When a finger is on or just above the screen, the nearest sensor lines are activated (X1, Y0). If two fingers are detected, ghosting positions occurs since four lines activated. As you can see in the graph above, this gives four possible touch positions (all four activated intersections of X1, X3, Y0, Y2 in the illustration), and the correct combination is unknown. This makes multi-touch impossible.

Combining self and mutual capacitance to allow floating touch
Floating touch™ is solved by running both mutual capacitance and self capacitance, on the same touch screen, at the same time. Mutual capacitance is used for the normal touch sensing, including multi-touch. By running elf-capacitance at the same time, we can detect a finger above the surface of the screen.

However, since the floating touch™ technology depends on self capacitance, it is not possible to perform multi-touch gestures with the fingers hovering above the screen. However, multi-touch will work fine for the normal touch gestures on the screen.

The technology has been developed in cooperation with Cypress Technologies. By leveraging on the existing capacitive touch sensor, and lowering the threshold for touch registration, it will be possible to differentiate between floating touch™ and “normal” touch. All Android™ applications will work perfectly fine, just like before, and only the apps that explicitly “listen” for floating touch™ events will react to them.

iPhone 5 Screen 4.6 Inch with Retina Display Report Says

Once the issues The New iPad uncovered, now have new issues emerged about the arrival of the iPhone 5. A lot of rumors about iphone 5, and one of the rumors that circulated from a trusted source is about iPhone 5 screen will present bigger screen.

Apple is purportedly already placing orders with suppliers for a 4.6-inch iPhone Retina display, Reuters said today, citing a report in South Korea's Maeil Business Newspaper. The phone is due in the second quarter, according to the report.

If accurate, that would be Apple's third device with a Retina display. The others include the just-released 9.7-inch iPad and the 3.5-inch iPhone 4S.

The 960-by-640-pixel Retina display on the iPhone packs in 326 pixels per inch while the new iPad's 2,048-by-1,536-pixel screen squeezes in 264 pixels per inch.

A relatively massive--for a smartphone, that is--4.6-inch glass screen would be a big step for Apple from the 3.5-inch iPhone. A larger phone may also allow Apple to include updated chips such as the A5X. That chip's marquee feature is quad-core graphics.

By comparison, the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket HD has a 4.65-inch HD Super AMOLED screen.

Apple enthusiast site MacRumors says the likelihood of the rumor being true is low.

"There have been persistent rumors that the next generation iPhone would carry a larger 4-inch screen. And we are convinced that Apple had exactly such designs in late prototype stages in China," said MacRumors.

Indeed, there were reports before the launch of the iPhone 4S that Apple was working on an iPhone with a bigger screen. But those reports predicted a phone measuring 4.2 to 4.3 inches, not a full 4.6 inches.
This report according to Cnet News

This post is meant to be a companion to the several other 2012 iPad app guides we’ve got already – don’t be surprised if one or two games appear here as well as there: they’re just that good. 

We’ll be beginning with a racing game you might already be familiar with, enhanced this week to bring you up to full Retina quality speed. Expect this kind of excellence soon from other racers, but for now here is The Best Games For The New iPad 2012 stands utterly alone in its HD-quality:


Real Racing 2 HD

This game is available for the iPad only at the moment, the HD quality being just one of the fantastic new features you’ll have working in this newly minted version 1.13 of the instantly classic top-fuel game. This game will cost you a cool [$2.99 to download now] and you’ll never look back. Yellow cars go faster, always remember that.

Order & Chaos Online

This game is no less than a full real-time 3D Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game made to work fantastically on your iPad. This game brings on a fabulous fantasy world of magic, mayhem, and the occasional team up for quests in the Lower City dungeon. Fans of such epic games as Diablo and World of Warcraft beware: such greatness on the iPad awaits! This game will run you [$6.99 on the App Market] if you buy it now!

Modern Combat 3: Fallen Nation

This game offers you not only first person shooting in as high definition an environment as you’re ever going to find outside the PC, it also brings you Airplay gaming at a full 720p – you’ll want to pick up a new Apple TV to make this happen as slick as possible. The app itself will only cost you [$0.99 for a download] and you’ll be able to play on your iPhone as well!

Mass Effect Infiltrator

For those of you that like to massacre your opponents with high-powered weapons but aren’t able to get into the first-person-shooter genre, there’s the third-person-shooter as well! This game takes the highest definition graphics you’ve ever seen in such a game and slaps them down on the new iPad as well as the iPhone for [$6.99 for hours of adventure] Don’t forget to duck and snipe!

Infinity Blade II

The Infinity Blade series has been recommended by Apple in each of its iterations since the iPad 2 first showed its fantastic ability to work with its A5 dual-core chip like a boss all the way back 12 months ago. This version of the game is the pre-cursor to Infinity Blade: Dungeons, another game you simply must download and play to get the full iPad experience. High definition finger-swiping sword battles await for [$6.99 and worth every penny]

And there’s more!

The New iPad 2012 Video Review

This is the first iPad to offer 4G LTE wireless, and so we were naturally quite eager to load up Speed Test and see what it could do. For those looking for the full-on review effect, the new iPad is still a slinky thing.

Sure, its 9.4mm thickness won't win it any awards (especially since that's .6mm thicker than the iPad 2), nor will its 652g (1.4-pound) heft (51g / .11 pounds more than before), but it feels neither big nor heavy. It instead feels substantial. Dense. It's carved from a hunk of aluminum and there's a cavity in there where the (now bigger) battery and other internals reside, but if you didn't know any better you'd think it were completely solid.

There's none of the flex or the give found in cheaper slates. That solidity certainly helps explain the premium feel, but buyers will have to decide whether that feel is worth the extra space in their messenger bags, or the extra strain placed on shoulder straps. That is, needless to say, quite healthy.

The New iPad 2012 Video Review by The Verge


The New iPad Video Reviw by WT1 :
What's in a name? Or, more importantly, what's in a digit? Would that which we call an iPad by any number less than 2 be less sweet? That's the question Apple posed for us indirectly when it unveiled the new iPad and relegated its future slates (and, presumably, phones) to a numeral-free future. And that new slate? It's much the same as the old one, with a slightly more chipper processor at its (quad) core and support for both Verizon and AT&T's fancy new LTE networks.

But there's one bigger change here, one that will ripple across the industry as each manufacturer struggles to keep up in this ever-accelerating market. That feature is the iPad's new 2048 x 1536 Retina display. It's the best display ever featured on a tablet, probably the best display ever on a mobile device, but is that enough to keep this tablet ahead of the pack? Believe it or not, the answer is yes. 

Price of  the New iPad is start at $466

The New iPad 2012 Available Next Week, Pricing for $499

Did you wait too long to pull the trigger on a pre-order for Apple's newest iPad: The New iPad ? Well, it looks like you'll have to join the rest of the US-based iStragglers and settle for a later ship date. The Cupertino-born slate, initially set for a March 16th release, now appears to have been pushed back to the 19th.

Forcing prospective online buyers to seek out any remaining stock at brick and mortar outlets on launch day. While this is by no means an indication that the company's sold out of its third-generation tablet wares, consider it a last call for the early adopter train.

Just three months after the holiday season, Apple is releasing the next version of its popular tablet. The long awaited New iPad will be released March 16 (this coming Friday). Here’s everything you need to know about the device and whether updating your iPad will be worth it.

Clearer Display

Apple is beefing up the iPad’s retina display, which creates clearer fonts and pictures. Apple has the iPad 2 and New iPad laid out side-by-side on their website and the new iPad’s clarity is astounding. The new retina display has a 2048-by-1536 resolution with 3.1 million pixels. By comparison, HDTV has 2.1 million pixels. Overall, the New iPad has four times the amount of pixels the iPad 2 does.

Faster connection

According to Apples’ website, the New iPad uses 4G LTE, one of the fastest cellular networks in the world. The new iPad comes with two cellular antennas, allowing for more connectivity around the world. The new iPad comes with Apple’s latest chip, the A5X, ensuring the device is just as fluid and smooth as other iPads. The New iPad even has the same amount of battery life (10 hours) and comes to life instantly with a single touch.

Users should note however that many cell phone providers have yet to set up a 4G network. Paying extra for faster connectivity features doesn’t necessarily mean they will be utilized from the get go.

Better camera

The new iPad comes with a 5-megapixel camera with more exposure options and better face recognition than previous iPads. Perhaps the biggest upgrade with the camera is HD recording, allowing users to record in full 1080p. The new camera also has a hybrid filter, similar filters used in SLR cameras, allowing for clearer pictures.

Is it worth it?

Apple is asking pricing at $499 for the New iPad. The iPad 2 received a $100 price drop, fetching a $399 price tag through Apple. Despite the numerous improvements, the New iPad hasn’t dazzled everyone.

Online reviewers say that while the new HD features have created the best picture on a tablet so far and the upgraded camera records incredible videos, the overall features of the new iPad aren’t quite enough to ditch the iPad 2 yet. If you haven’t bought an iPad yet, forking over an extra $100 may be worth it. But for current iPad 2 owners or money conscious consumers, sticking with older models may be the best bet.

Motorola XYBOARD Waterproof Tablet Specs and Price

Motorola has released Motorola XYBOARD 8.2 Waterproof editions. This is the first tablet PC with waterproof features. It’s just the Wi-fi versions of the tablets you’ll be grabbing with waterproofing all around, as the Saturday Night Live “it breaks immediately” gag holds strong for dunking your LTE XYBOARD into the drink. Note of course that doing this is never a good idea, even if you do have waterproofing on your devices – spillproof doesn’t mean “left in the kiddie pool for 2 hours” proof.

    New iPad Price, Features and Specs

    “It’s Resolutionary” Apple says of the new iPad 2012, and we have to agree. We’ve just grabbed some hands-on time with the new Retina Display iOS 5.1 tablet, and the difference from the iPad 2 – which, remember, stays on sale alongside it – is vast. The pixels in the 2048 x 1536 display are, at regular arm’s length, completely indistinguishable: it’s only when you get up close that you can make them out.

    New iPad features

    1. Retia Display
    Pick up the new iPad and suddenly, it’s clear. You’re actually touching your photos, reading a book, playing the piano. Nothing comes between you and what you love. To make that hands-on experience even better, we made the fundamental elements of iPad better — the display, the camera, the wireless connection. All of which makes the new, third-generation iPad capable of so much more than you ever imagined.

    With New iPad Retia Display Four times more pixels than iPad 2. Razor-sharp text. Richer colors. The Retina display transforms the entire iPad experience. So everything looks and feels incredibly lifelike and perfectly detailed.

    2. iSight Camera
    The 5-megapixel iSight camera features a backside illumination sensor that captures great-looking pictures whether by sunlight or candlelight. Autofocus, tap to focus, and tap to set exposure functions mean every photo you take instantly becomes a frameworthy gem. And with built-in face detection that automatically balances focus and exposure across up to 10 faces, there’s more room for more grins. So everyone look at iPad and say “Cheese.

    3. HD Video Recording
    Record HD video in full 1080p. Sometimes life takes you by surprise. You’re reading a best seller on your iPad waiting for the morning train when you spy a gifted performer on the platform. Or you’re browsing the web on the couch when your dog trots by wearing your daughter’s tutu.

    The iSight camera on the new iPad lets you capture all these unpredictable, beautiful, and hilarious moments. In 1080p HD, no less. And with automatic video stabilization, your recording is free of bumps and shakes. Which is a big advantage when you’re laughing uncontrollably.

    4. Ultrafast 4G LTE
    Built with the latest in wireless technology, the new iPad lets you connect to fast data networks around the world — up to 4G LTE.

    5. Pixel perfect performace with A5 Chip
    Pixel-perfect performance. The A5X chip with quad-core graphics drives four times the pixels of iPad 2 yet it delivers the same smoothness and fluidity iPad is known for. Even with all that extra oomph, the new iPad still gets an amazing 10 hours of battery life

    Toshiba Qosmio X870 Laptop Specs and Price

    Toshiba Qosmio X870 is new gaming laptop by Toshiba. Though this notebook hasn't been announced here in the US, UK-based site TechDigest is showing us the first photo of the Qosmio X870, which seems to have a rather reined-in design compared to previous Toshiba gaming machines we've seen (to the extent that a PC with red accents can ever be called staid).
