Will the tiny Lightning connector be sturdy enough for docking stations?
You could argue that the new port on the bottom of the new iPad 4G is a downgrade
The smaller Lightning port is easier to use
But it does mean it won’t work with existing cables
Docks and accessories. This might be less of an issue for the iPad than the iPhone or iPod touch however - it’s always been too big for most docks anyway - and Apple has made up for this change (which

Abstract: At the iPad mini event, Apple did something that it hasn't done in quite some time: it surprised us. With most of the company's recent products leaking well before their announcements, the days of being thrown for a loop at an Apple event appeared to be o...

The newest iPad's faster A6X processor adds extra system speed and graphics power. Improved worldwide cellular compatibility makes the LTE model a more appealing proposition. And the iOS App Store remains best in class, with the widest selection
The fourth-gen iPad is otherwise identical to its recent predecessor -- same size, weight, and Retina screen. It's heavy to hold in one hand, and most older accessories won't work without investing in a pricey Lightning adapter
The latest iPad adds several tweaks and improvements to secure its position at the top of the tablet heap. It's better all around, but third-gen owners need not apply.
Abstract: So the iPad 4 is the new iPad, or rather the new new iPad because the new iPad was first the iPad 3, which has now become the old and discontinued new iPad half a year later. Yeah, it's awkward. But anyway. This new iPad is just the same as the old iPad e...
Abstract: In addition to the new Nexus 4 smartphone, which we've already put up against the iPhone 5 , Google and Samsung have announced the brand new Nexus 10 big boy tablet now as well. So experience vs. ecosystem, integrated vs. licenses, yadda vs. yadda, we're ...
Abstract: Design The two tablets, besides their suspiciously similar rectangular shapes with rounded corners and identical black and white colour options, couldn't be any more different in terms of design. The new Apple Ipad is crafted from weighty aluminium, while...
Abstract: In terms of size, the Surface is 0.1mm thicker than the latest Ipad, although it's heavier than Apple's tablet, weighing 676g compared to Apple's 652g. While people probably won't notice the 0.1mm difference in thickness, they are likely to notice t...
Abstract: The New iPad is one that brings in some old an New. Design wise it looks like the iPad 2, in almost every facet expect for a few key changes both external and internal. First of it packs a 9.7-inch Retina display with resolution at 2048×1536. 44% greater ...
Abstract: If you are an iPad 'one' user, or a user of any other tablet available in the market, then you should consider the upgrade to the New iPad. If you are an iPad 2 user however, we suggest you skip this iteration and wait for the fourth generation iPad as th...
