Fairly speaking, Apple just made its 4th generation iPad slightly advanced, due to the fact that no much innovation other than a twice powered A6X chip was introduced. Not surprisingly, however, this new version of iPad was dubbed not iPad 4, but iPad with Retina Display. It seems that Apple is misleading consumers that it is the first time they debut the Retina Display on their tablets, which turns out it's not. So, to those who already have the previous generation of iPad, there seems to be no reason to upgrade just 7 months away from their purchases, or even less. To those who are considering an iPad, now there are two choices, iPad 4 the larger size, or iPad Mini the smaller one.

Apple has eventually gone where many of the consumers, techies, and media's have long rumored about. Or, maybe from the day when the original iPad came out, this topic had been argued like thousands of times inside the company, among the decision makers. iPad Mini, just 1.8 inch smaller, brings Apple a fresher tablet experience. As speculated, the new tablet comes in 16GB, 32GB and 64 GB of onboard storage for both the basic Wi-Fi version and the Wi-Fi + Cellular model. But, there is an obvious downscale on its display, which is just on par with the first-gen iPad. Without Retina Display, is this smaller iPad can display crystal clear images?
