this episode of unboxed era p is brought to you by carbonite what's up guys it's Lou from unbox therapy and today we're taking a look at the latest generation full-size iPad you guys know I recently unboxed the iPad Mini this is the full-size model packing the Retina display some are calling it the iPad 4 others are calling it the iPad 4th generation you can call it whatever you like basically it's the latest gen full-size iPad with the nine point seven inch display rather than the seven point nine inch display if you guys want me to compare this to the iPad Mini in a future video to a full-on comparison then make sure to hit the thumbs up down below if that's something you want to see maybe I can help you figure out which one is the right eye pad for you whether it's the full size or the iPad Mini or maybe something else maybe a different tablet in general anyways if you haven't subscribed yet do that now because there probably will be a comparison video coming up shortly so here is the latest fourth-generation iPad and as you can tell it looks exactly the same as the last generation there are some minor modifications I'll get to in a moment here's the power brick which is slightly larger than the power brick that ships with the iPad Mini of course bigger I've had bigger power brick that's to be expected you've got a little bit of paperwork from Apple once again incredibly similar to every other Apple product and you've also got the Apple stickers which I think you get with every Apple product if you've ever purchased an Apple product without the Apple stickers let me know down in the comments because it's never happened to me and I can't remember any at the moment you've also got the lightning cable which has replaced the older generation 30 pin connector so that's a little bit more convenient and it is the first physical change of this fourth generation iPad or the iPad 4 whichever you prefer to call it so as you can tell it's just as sleek as the last generation you have the aluminum finish on the back unlike on the many where you've got you know the new sort of anodized look the black look on the darker model or they're calling it slate I should be proper here anyways I'll go ahead and set it up off camera you of course got your forward facing camera for 720p video conferencing you also have your home button which is on every single iPad regardless of model here you can see I finally gone ahead and got it set up you can take a little look at that Retina display and of course the performance is now improve this new iPad is packing an a6 X processor which is supposed to be twice as fast as on the previous generation which seems to be a major improvement when you consider the fact that this just came out you know shortly after the release of the last generation on top you have your headphone jack a microphone and lastly you have your power switch of course that's also going to be used to turn your screen on and off unless you're using a smart cover of course I've got one of those too for the mini that I'll be reviewing or at least unboxing and showing you giving you a demonstration of soon you have the single speaker on the bottom of the unit and as well that's also where your lightning port is going to live once again that's the new connector that Apple's using on all of their devices you have your hold lock switch or mute switch as well as your volume up and down rocker on the right hand side on the back of the unit is where you'll find your rear facing camera which is going to shoot five megapixels the same camera I believe that the iPad Mini is packin maybe I'll do a comparison in that actual video you've also got the Apple logo as well as the iPad logo on the back once again the back is done in a nice aluminum finish which seems to be fairly durable at least it has been for my past generation models really the big story here is the screen though you've still got the very beautiful Retina display with tight pixel density and that's the main thing people are concerned with when comparing the mini to the full-size a lot of people were expecting or at least hoping to have retina quality or retina pixel density on the smaller iPad Mini but how does it really pan out what does it really mean for you if you're interested in either product how bad does the mini look or how good does the retina look I'll be tackling all that stuff in the future full comparison video so definitely stick around for that and as I said earlier hit the thumbs up button if that's something you're totally
