Heavier and thicker than the iPad 2
No Flash support in the web browser
No standard USB port
Non replaceable battery
No stereo loudspeakers
No GPS receiver in the Wi-Fi version

No Siri
Can get uncomfortably hot at times
No charging while in use
Lack of basic iOS apps - weather, stocks, clock, calculator, voice memos
Need jailbrake :P

I bought this iPad yesterday, great product. Everything works so well, no wonder why this is best tablet out there and sells millions and get's 4,5 or 5 star ratings everywhere.
Why so much hate without trying?
Screen is stunning, very sharp and great Color saturation, looks better than my samsung pc monitor.
I dont have wifi problems and Screen isn't yellow, everything works very well, device get's warm on normal use, i dont know how warm iPad 2 was.
Now i have surfed web for half hour and battery still 100%, so things are looking very good,
This is my first tablet.

" The 2048 x 1536 pixel Retina display has four times the resolution of the previous model. The bar is yet again set too high for the competition. " why? This display is made by samsung... A little bias dont u think

Good Review. But why does every reviewer have such inconsistencies with the comparison devices...?
In this articel you compared the sound of the new iPad to a Samuncg Galaxy S phone .. the original almost over 2 yrs old. I want to see how it matches to the 10.1, or 7.7. TODAYS DEVICES....
I lose total interest when sites do this - stick with the latest from each competitor and show the real data not pick and choose to suit your case.

I need Advice please: I am in Africa, Zambia and I want to buy the new ipad 3 + wifi + 4G from Amazon. But what is offered is either 4G with AT&T or Verizon. Are these sim locked to these carriers, in other words, will it work on any network in Zambia, if I bought any of these .

Johnny, 23 Mar 2012Hi people, dont you think that the screen of the ipad 3 is ... more"Note that our (new) iPad uses a warmer (yellowish) color scheme than the colder (bluish) iPad 2. This is an issue present to all iGadgets - depending on the screen manufacturer, each iPhone/iPad has a warm or cold color scheme."
It's the same case with the iPhones as well, I can confirm.

Hi people, dont you think that the screen of the ipad 3 is kind of pinkish.... I mean the screen of ipad 2 is much better. I agree in the tech specs section, ipad 3 has a better resolution, but check out the screen difference of ipad 2 and ipad 3, you would def find that in the ipad 3, the screen is kind of pinkish.....
If Steve Jobs was alive, he would have looked into getting this fixed at the earliest.
Let's hope sooner or latter, Tim Cook realizes this.
Cheers!!

um, i think the "no charging while using" thing is a feature, not a bug. seeing how hot the thing gets running on battery, using it AND charging will make it even hotter still. probably a security feature.

Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1 doesnt have ics (android 4.0)
the new ipad is the best tablet with 3G (because the only tablet with quad core cpu is the prime and doesnt have 3G
witch makes it not usefull )
quad core + 3G Tablets aren't coming in the next few month
and most of them doesn't have a Full USB port only Acer's (and samsung tabs +prime with adapter :(
samsung's Note 10.1 isn't a breakthrough just a tab with an s pen (expecting more from sammy )
and to put you in the picture apple did a lot to make that screen happen (battery 11.666 mH(70% more) +thicker +heaveir +strongest Gpu available+ hotter)
correct me if i'm wrong and i'am happy to hear your responses :)
