It's not PhoneArena, krApple refuses to publish the FFC specification; it's the same way on krApple's websiTe.

The four-core GPU of the new iPad sure is something. But I'd like to see the performance of the entire SoC first.

the processor in the "new ipad" is cortex A-9.

its the exact same processor with minor tweaking. maybe they clocked it over 800mhz? lol. now.... with a 1ghz dual core!! no.. more than likely they bumped it to 1.2 to 1.4 to compensate for the higher resolution.

22. cepcamba posted on 07 Mar 2012, 15:27 0

Yeah, it's more likely to be at 1.2 or 1.4 otherwise it'll surely lag because of it's resolution alone.

it has a PowerVR SGX543MP4. let me repeat that, an MP...4. the new iPad will probably have the best GPU for the rest of the year.

@KingKurogiii
Yeah you're right. Would you know how many cores the GPU have? I think it's four but not really sure.

Would be sweet to have the PowerVR SGX543MP4 on a

powervr is a great gpu, no doubt. still dont know why Sammy moved away from them.
the gpu is quad core, the CPU is the same dual core in the last iPad/ i4s.

yeah, that's right. Apple would've killed it with a pair of A-15 cores. i'll bet the A6 will be Quad-Core though.

I don't think Phonearena is taking Apple's claim. Afterall the article said "which Apple claims to be superior to the quad-core Tegra 3".

the iPad costs just as much as the other tablets out there, so...

and that's why they aren't buying a tablet at all...
