Walt Mossberg cites a dramatically improved screen and superior cellular speed as the high points of Apple’s new iPad in his Wall Street Journal review.
The new display is like “getting a new eyeglasses prescription… Text is much sharper and photos look richer.”
The new iPad is 8 percent heavier and 7 percent thicker, but it retains the long battery life which is much better than any other tablets Mossberg has tested.
The 4G LTE gave the impression of being continuously on Wi-Fi with average speeds over 17mbps on Verizon and 12mbps on AT&T. You can also use the device as a personal hotspot — “a base station to connect laptops and other devices to the Internet.”
The iPad has some 200,000 apps and a multitude of music, books, periodicals and video options available.
Mossberg recommends the new iPad as “the best tablet on the planet.”
