Sayonara, iPad 2—you had a good run. On Tuesday, Apple announced that it’s
replacing the iPad 2 in its iPad line-up with the iPad with Retina display, finally retiring the 9.7-inch model first introduced in 2011.</p><p>
Its successor,
the fourth-generation iPad introduced in late 2012, boasts an A6X processor, a 5MP iSight camera, a FaceTime HD camera, support for LTE cellular networking (on Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, or T-Mobile), 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi support on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz, Bluetooth 4.0, and—as the name suggests—a Retina display with 2048-by-1536 resolution. Available only in 16GB configurations with and without wireless networking, the Retina iPad retains the same $399/$529 price points as its predecessor, and provides much more bang for one’s buck.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2109221/ipad-2-bids-us-farewell-is-replaced-by-fourth-generation-retina-model.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
