Hi there!
I am planning to buy an iPad and I will be mainly using it whilst i'm travelling watching movies, listening to music, surfing the net, taking notes and most especially playing games.(Oh...yes!)
I have seen loads of videos comparing the CPU and the GPU of both devices especially when comparing it with website graphics rendering, photos and reading e-books which on careful scrutiny (and setting your eyes to macro mode) the "new" iPad looks better than the previous-gen. But, how about games?
When i had my iPad 2 4 months ago i mostly have fighting games (Marvel vs Capcom 2, Soul Calibur & Infinity Blade) and i am planning to buy more games like Resident Evil, FIFA, some shooters, more fighting games and the usual casual/everyday games like Angry Birds and Cut the rope.
Because of the specs difference (esp. on the RAM & GPU department) is it worth getting the new iPad (3rd-gen) as it renders better graphics i.e. better shading, colours, sharpness, pixels, etc.? Or would the difference be negligible? Seen comparison videos showing the iPad 2 actually loads apps slightly faster than the "new" iPad.
So, get the "new" iPad or wait for the rumoured 7-inch iPad Mini with rumoured even faster CPU and an improved GPU?
Advice please. Thanks.
