The next is just an upgrade: The real iPad 3 has to wait for the third quarter of next year

According to news from the upstream supply chain, Apple's new iPad will soon be put into mass production, and then released in March 2012, but within Apple, it is not known as the iPad 3, but only an upgraded version of the iPad 2.

As for the real new iPad 3, it will not be available until the third quarter of 2012 at the earliest.

The iPad 2 upgrade will be thinner than it is now, and battery life will be longer. Other changes are less clear, but basically it can be concluded that the 2048×1536 high resolution screen will not exist.

Since the Chinese Lunar New Year will come in January of next year, Apple has decided to begin shipments of upgraded iPads in small quantities in the fourth quarter of this year to meet the needs of the Chinese market.

Some channel retailers believe that the iPad 2 is still the most popular tablet in the market, leading the obvious advantages, and Apple is not in a hurry to release new products.
