A5X processor with quad-core graphics

Together with the new Retina Display, the new iPad has an A5X processor which has a quad-core graphics module. This feature makes the new Ipad  4x faster than Tegra 3 found on Asus’ Transformer Prime and some quad-core Android devices.

iSight camera

The new iPad now has the iSight camera. A 5MP side-iluminated sensor, sported with 5-element lens and an infrared filter which was also found in the recently launched iPhone 4S. Also, you’re going to enjoy the new 1080p video recording feature.

Voice dictation

This new voice dictation is not Siri though, but more of a text-to-speech engine which can understand multiple major languages.

4G LTE

You’ll also get 4G LTE support here if you opt for the non-WiFi-only version. For the Philippines, you can take advantage of the up to 21Mbps HSPA+ networks with this device and it will also be ready for LTE when local telcos start rolling them out.

Oh you can also use it as a personal hotspot too so that’s a good thing since it has a longer battery life than mobile phones.
