iPad Air 80 percent faster than iPad 4 in benchmarks
The iPad Air is 80 percent faster than the fourth-generation iPad, say new benchmark tests.
Running the new iPad through the paces via Geekbench 3 tests, Primate Labs found that the tablet comes close to reaching Apple’s promise of doubling the speed of the iPad 4.
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The iPad Air is powered by an A7 processor, just like the iPhone 5S. But the new iPad runs at 1.4GHz — which is 100MHz faster than the 5S, Primate Labs founder John Poole said on Wednesday. He said he’s not sure whether the iPad Air’s processor is faster due to a larger battery (which offers more power), a larger chassis (which offers better cooling), or a combination of the two. But he does expect the iPad Mini’s A7 processor to also clock in at 1.4GHz.
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The new Air is also five times faster than the iPad 2, leading Poole to question why Apple is still selling the second-generation model, especially at $399, just $100 less than the starting price for the iPad Air.
He said that, from a performance standpoint, the iPad Air is a great upgrade to the iPad 4.
“With most recent Mac updates showing only modest performance improvements, it’s exciting to see iOS devices do the opposite, with substantial improvements between generations,” he said. “I wonder how much longer Apple can keep this up?”
The iPad Air is due to hit stores on Friday.

iOS 7 for which iPhone / iPad and what’s new?
Until now, iOS had changed little stacking serve at the pleasure of small updates, leaving little bit of a picture aging OS. 6 years after the first iPhone Edge and iOS 1.0, the mobile operating system, Apple makes its revolution and is about to give a second life to “iDevices.”
Control center
Camera app
Again, there is a sense of movement to move from photo to video capture (filters are introduced), the method square (square ideally for Instagram) and panning. The exposure lock and put the point so convenient video are always present and the HDR mode is now directly accessible.
Photo App
Safari
The web browser evolves and goes into full screen landscape both in portrait mode. In addition to a unified field and “intelligent” search, display shared links on Twitter, this is the new tabbed browsing that commands attention. Vertical scrolling intuitive way Chrome and especially no limit in the opening tabs (8 Max iOS 6).
AirDrop
Solution initiated by sharing OS X Lion, iOS Airdrop is extended to where it fits on many menus. It allows the exchange of files over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth simple and transparent manner.
Siri
The voice assistant is a little smarter by looking for the answer to a query on Wikipedia, it now takes hold of the Wi-Fi, brightness, or can search on Twitter.

Alleged next iPad is displayed with the current video model
That could be part of the next iPad have appeared in a new video, placing them side by side with the current model. And if these parts are original, the new version has a thinner bezel, so it is close enough to handle with one hand.
The video was uploaded by Unbox Therapy. There is no word on how he got his hands on the parts, so we have to take with a large pinch of salt just for now. But with invitations sent to an Apple event on Tuesday made a new tablet of Cupertino could be with us soon. I joined the video so you can take a look for yourself.
As you can see, the window is closer to that observed in the mini iPad. This makes the device much closer – 17 cm against 18.5 cm for the current iPad, according to the guy in the video – so you can fit your hand around it. Must do much more manageable.
And what else? The following model should be thinner, with a more square look, instead of the current model tapered sides. The volume controls on the side also been redesigned with two separate instead of a long buttons.
