For me, I have iPad 3 64GB LTE version. I am really happy with it and don't feel the over-heating issue at all. I use it everyday at least 3-4 hours for work and stuff and some gaming when I'm bored. 

The main issue here is that I won't get the iPad 4 because it will come preloaded with iOS 6. I need my iPad to be jailbroken, not for the free apps but for the tweaks that I am using.

Maybe the only time I will ever think of upgrading is if my iPad is spoilt or stolen (touch wood).

I have an estimate of 85+ books in iBooks and around 30+ pdf files ranging from 1mb to 10mb. Instantaneous start for iBooks and about 2 secs for loading all the books and another 1 sec for it to start the last-read book.

Thx for ur comment bro smile.gif my iBook also starts instantly, and takes 1sec like that to load all the thumbnails of the books smile.gif

I myself feel a bit warmonger my ipad after long time of web browsing, perhaps I set my brightness too bright? Haha.
Btw, really wish Apple released a6x for us back in march doh.gif

The heat probs still there..the only things is the heats produced when u use for gaming about 15-20 mins,which is slower than ipad3..
*
I think the heat is from the screen as well as the huge battery itself. Btw, what about browsing for 30mins? Will it become warm @ 50% brightness?

looks like the ipad4 is extremely not getting any attention from most people..and looks like being ignored lol.

everyone is hyped about ipad mini but not the ipad 4
*
Some people might even not aware of the iPad 4 hardware upgrade. They just thought Apple changed the name and that's why it is not that famous smile.gif Some even mis-thought the Mini iPad is iPad 4 tongue.gif

BTW, i think another reason iPad mini is hotter in demand because it is a new product, compared to full size iPad which existed 2 years ago

For those who just bought iPad 4 aka iPad with retina display , did iPad 4 still facing overheat problem ?
*
According to anandtech ipad 4 still run hot just like ipad 3 while gaming or while the processor is really being pushed.
However, the warm issue is not that obvious at normal usage like web browsing.

I'm still thinking this ipad 4 worth my money to upgrade or not hmm.gif I need some1 to compare the battery life between ipad 3 and ipad 4 tongue.gif

IPad 4 user here... on a heavy usage.. from say.. 8 in the morning.. (internet is always on) i switch between wifi and 3g... after 12 hours.. still have 20% battery life... heat issue is still there.. but the SIRI is quite nice... display same as IPAD 3.. performance not much difference.. except for almost no lag at all during games and stuff.. i caught on act the ipad 3 lagged during me playing around with it.. lol
*
Thanks for the input bro! Looks like the ipad 4 really do have better battery life as compared to ipad 3, thanks to the new A6x processor thumbup.gif

Ya, I agree with u, sometimes I just feel like my ipad 3 is a bit lag. I think maybe the a5x is not that powerful for the retina display, but overall it is still ok la smile.gif

QUOTE(cavaliars @ Dec 11 2012, 11:10 AM)
good point to get the latest version.as the price not much difference right.only rm120 cheaper for ipad 3.
*
Ya, it is a no brainer to choose ipad 4 over ipad 3 if ones is buying their first ipad. But, I personally don't think it is worth to upgrade from ipad 3 to ipad 4.

Wow, I am ipad 3 user. I can confirm ipad 4 last way way longer than ipad 3 @@ a 6 hours movie would have consumed almost 50% of my battery rclxub.gif

this is a bad move because different not much, i think next year around march/april they will release new ipad similiar design with ipad mini, consumer need spend money again to replace their old ipad XD

If you are upgrading from iPad 3, yea it is not worth. If you are upgrading from iPad 2 or lower, it is worth smile.gif If you are first timer and never had an iPad before, this is a very wise decision to take the iPad 4 smile.gif

p/s iPad 5 i am suspecting will definitely have a new design + thinner + lighter + A7x ( Quad Core ?) tongue.gif

Haha .. cant solely compared like that. Perhaps iPad mini could run that game smooth since its resolution is 4 times lower tongue.gif hehe But if iPad 4 also got some lag, then surely iPad 3 would be more lag doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif

i just checked my benchmark via geekbench 2. Score is 1786. But the Model number is Ipad 3,6 which i assume they directly call it IPAD 4.. lol

Ya, indeed the code name is still under iPad 3 despite Apple chose to call it iPad 4. It seems more like an Ipad 3s to me. But no worries, if your ipad have a geekbench mark of 1700 something, that is definitely an ipad 4 smile.gif
