LTE iPhone 5 Rumors, Verizon iPad Wins Our Best Choice & More - iReview

2012-03-25
Elte iPhone rumors begin to string around we tell you why the Verizon iPad is your best choice and the new iPad is hot and I mean that literally all this and more coming up right now hello we're one I'm Hina with pocketnow.com and welcome to the pocket nail I review the show we go through all this week school and the not so cool has had the world of Apple's iOS devices let's talk this week off with what's cool well apple's new ipad is hot and sadly that goes both ways so stay tuned for the not so cool section as we go through why that's not necessarily good news but so far Apple has sold three million units in just a couple of days after launch day just to give you an idea took Apple eighty days to sell those same three million units for the original iPad and you and I remember how long it took for us to get one of those devices so so far so good for Apple and sales but sadly again not everything's fun so stay tuned for the rest and the round of applications that supports the new iPads Retina display keeps growing at launch there were only twenty four titles supporting the Retina display but as of now there are already 58 a supporting it and just hit the filter in the app store application to get full details of all the applications that have been enhanced a good chunk of these are free so it's really good to hit the filter and keep updating your applications now an interesting move from Apple and we actually even filmed a video about this Brandon than recently where he shows us that iPhone applications that are enhanced for the retina display have better graphics that even iPad 2 or old iPad applications that are available in the App Store so just to give you an idea the Facebook application for the tablet and hands version sadly gives you a lot of pixels with the exception that if you run the Facebook application for the iPhone you'll get better graphics kind of an irony but hopefully that'll be fixed soon out of this week's coverage make sure you catch Brandon's videos on the new iPad we've got four videos so far first of all we have the unboxing and hardware tour of the iPad in comparison to the iPad 2 then we go through what we love and we hate about the new my iPad and just the first weekend of experience then we have how the iPad manages Retina display applications from the iPhone just that we talked about and finally we have another video where we tell you which iPad is best to choose and why the Verizon version of the LTE iPad is better than the AT&T model we also have Michael Fisher's recent editorial of how it feels to come from the first generation iPad to the new iPad iPad 3 or whatever you want to call it all really good coverage coming up and hey what would your new iPad be without your ability to jailbreak it and the dev team has come on record to show us that they've already figured out a way to jailbreak it even though according to them there's still a lot more work to do so so far so good sadly we still don't have any dates as to when we could expect it either tethered or even untethered but hopefully they will get this figured out soon trust me anything's better than having your iPad locked anyways and before we get to the not so cool section recent reports that Apple already placing orders for an LTE equipped iPhone which is kind of a no-brainer but sadly that's not fun and games because apparently Apple is ordering the same 3.5 inch displayed for this iPhone and the cake topping is taken by none other than orders for October 2012 release when we were expecting it to be launched in June now what's interesting here is the fact that Apple had to figure out how to fit a 42 watt hour battery into the new iPad in order to provide LTE support and also power for the new Retina display so it's kind of a no-brainer to consider that Apple should consider the rumors of a 4.6 inch display only to make the iPhone bigger in order to fit a bigger battery and therefore have the same battery life that we currently get in the iPhone 4 because the iPhone 4s was sadly not as good so hopefully Apple will take these hints and bring a larger design hopefully Donny is listening to this and well Johnny since I just gave you the idea how about if I get the 1 million pounds a year that you get just as a compensation you know just so us first to be even all right so thatís for the cool that's continue on with the not so cool just as we get a new iPad we also get a new list of complaints first of all we have complaints about the device heating up even though in our personal tests we didn't find the device to heat up that bad even with tough games and processing power now it could be just something specific to certain devices so art by C you take it to a genius barn let them tell you or probably could even get a swab for that device now second of all they're also complaining about Wi-Fi gate issues apparently there's something wrong with Wi-Fi and the device connecting to Wi-Fi routers I've been experiencing this problem with the iPad 2 on iOS 5.1 so apparently this has to do with software but let's just hope that they don't take weeks to figure that one out and third of all it seems that people are complaining about the Smart Covers it seems that the first generation smart foot covers are not working with the new iPad so our advice to you is sadly you're gonna have to buy a new smart cover the new generation color smart covers you can see the difference here are apparently working with a new iPad better than the old ones so that the smart cover was built from October on with the refresh in colors apparently these are the ones that are gonna be working well with the new iPad sad news that's it for today's show thank you very much for watching I'm high memory better remember to give us a thumbs up if you liked what you saw that's it for now
