The Apple conference ended hours ago, and in continuation of Apple's policy, it fulfilled all traditional expectations and violated all rosy dreams. Apple launched its new device, the "new" iPad, as it came equipped with a one-million-pixel Retina screen, in addition to a new A5X processor and a major update for the camera, and provided its device with4G LTE network And I announced a new TV that supports HD technology, in addition to the development of some programs and the release of the new operating system 5.1, and we will now review a summary of the conference.

This conference is the first announcement of a new product in the absence of Steve Jobs, and it is also an update of the latest innovations and products of Steve Jobs "iPad" ... Apple CEO Tim Cook ascends to start the conference.

The conference began with Apple talking about its achievement and that it had achieved huge sales in the market of its three portable devices, "iPhone - iPad - iPod Touch", with sales reaching a total of 315 million devices as a historical total.

And last year alone, 172 million devices were sold, and this achieved 76% of Apple's income, in addition to reaching its stores around the world to 362 stores.

Then they reviewed a group of stores during their opening and the huge public turnout for them.

Then he moved on again to talk about the trio and that only their sales over the past three months had reached 62 million devices.

Then he talked about Siri, the genius personal assistant, and the love of Apple customers, and said that Siri is available in English in its three accents (American, English and Australian) in addition to French and German languages, then he said that it is now available in Japanese through the 5.1 update, which will be available today.

Then he moved to talk about the iCloud cloud service and that the iTunes cloud service now supports videos, and that the iTunes store now supports 1080p high-quality videos by mentioning the videos and watching them.

The time for the iPad came

In the beginning, he talked about the strong sales of the iPad during the past three months and that it reached 15.4 million iPads, and this number is greater than all the production of any company that produces computers around the world, and he added illustrations, as follows:

Then he reviewed the Twitter application on a Samsung tablet and commented on its poor quality compared to the similar Twitter application on the iPad, then opened another application, Yelp, and also compared it to its counterpart on the iPad, and these are evidence of the iPad's progress despite the presence of more than a hundred competing tablets. To the market during the past year, but the superiority of the iPad with more sales of them all.

This was due to the high quality of providing applications to the user, then he moved to the software store, which celebrated the arrival of the number of 25 billion downloads, and it also includes 200 thousand applications for the iPad.

Suddenly, a new iPad appeared.

As we all expected and mentioned several times, the new iPad came with a high-quality Retina screen, but he said that we cannot imagine it because the iPad screen reached more than three million pixels and this is in the size of only 9.7 inches.

This high concentration is higher than any screen in the world, whether the screens of mobile devices, including laptops, or even (traditional) televisions, meaning that it is beyond description because even if you see an advertisement, you will see it on your computer screen, which is less good than the iPad screen, and this makes you see the texts on the screen More visible than traditional newspapers.

Some people may think that Apple has only raised the quality of the images, this matter is not as simple as we think, the size of the images has reached 2048 x 1536, and to know what this size means, we must mention that the advanced HD home TV screens have a pixel count of 1920 * 1080, which is less than clarity IPad screen much as shown in the following picture:

Then the number of pixels has doubled 4 times and this makes us in need of a powerful processor that supports these high graphics, and here came the dual-core A5X processor like the previous one, but with a quad-core graphics processor twice as fast than the previous graphics processor on the iPad 2.

Then he moved to talk about the camera, as we all know that the first iPad did not have a camera, then the second came and added a camera but it is bad 0.7 mega and now the new iPad came with a 5 mega pixel camera like the iPhone 4 and the iPhone 4S lenses.

As Apple said before, some think that the quality of photography is "mega-pixel" and that a 12-megapixel camera must be better than an 8-megapixel camera, and this is not true, as there are several other criteria in quality so Apple offers a 5-megapixel camera like the iPhone 4, but it surpasses the iPhone. IPhone 4 includes all the features and technologies of the 4S camera in terms of the number of lenses, and this provides more clarity of the image, and anti-flicker has been added to improve the quality of the images, and a feature of face recognition has also been added.

Then he moved to filming the video, as we mention that the iPhone 4 camera shoots 720p video, but this camera, although it is the same size in filming, but it is similar to the quality of the 4S as it shoots 1080p and there is a sensor to prevent vibration during the filming of the video, you can imagine this high quality when it is displayed on the Retina screen.

Everyone knows that the iPad is one of the most comfortable devices to write if not the most, but a new update has been added to the keyboard, which is an extra small button, press it and speak and it will know what you said, yes it is the voice recognition of the new iPad and it supports English and French And German and of course the Japanese language. (Of course, there is general frustration in not supporting Siri)

Let's move to networks, as the new device supports all types of networks from HSPA + with a speed of up to 21 MB to its sister, which reaches 42 MB, in addition to that the famous LTE networks called 4G with speeds of 72 MB, terrible speed, whatever the speed of the Internet and your network, the new iPad will make the most of Of which.

And now a quick review of what we have said, the new specifications are:

  1. Retina screen
  2. New processor
  3. High quality 5 mega rear camera
  4. 1080p video recording
  5. Voice recognition
  6. 4G networks support

We mentioned that the fourth generation networks consume the battery a lot, do you think that Apple forgot that? Of course not, as its new device is able to work 10 hours, or 9 hours, in XNUMXG networks.

As for the prices, they did not differ at all and will be available starting from the price of 499 dollars for the 16 GB Wi-Fi version.

We were previously told that the date of availability of the device for sale is Friday, March 16th, in ten countries, including the United States of America, Canada, France, Germany, Switzerland, and others, as shown in the following picture. Then, on March 24, a number of countries, none of which are Arab, is expected to be available in the Arab countries during the following months.

Then Apple reviewed a number of videos and games that show high quality. Of course, the iPad is the king of games, but imagine the games now with a graphics engine 4 times faster than the traditional engine and also on the screen.

And now, after Apple previously introduced the popular iWork service package on the iPad and iPhone, the time has come to move the other entertainment group, iLife, so Mac users know very well what iPhoto means, for example, and indeed Apple has moved it in a way that preserved all the traditional features and added new features. Open the application and you will find all the pictures that you have taken recorded in it, choose the picture you want and it will automatically find other similar pictures only without your interference.

The application not only brings similar images, but also enables you to add professional adjustments to them and enables you to display them beautifully.

Conclusion: Take pictures with a high-quality camera and it will automatically fetch similar ones, make professional adjustments to the images, choose what you like, and share them with your friends from within the application. As for its price, it is $ 4.99.

What about iPad 2? Is it gone forever? There will be no remaining for the 16 GB version, and its price will be reduced to $ 399, so there is a cheap alternative in the iPad category available to everyone.

Thus, the price list becomes as follows

Have you ever thought What is the name of the new device? Is it the iPad 3 or the iPad 2S or the iPad HD? No ... not all the answers are wrong :), Apple has decided to name the new iPad with a completely different name The new iPadYes, this is the name, not a mistake. The name of the new iPad is the new iPad. As shown in the picture.

It seems that Apple decided to cancel the numbering of its devices and treat the iPad like the Mac devices, as it is only called its name without any number, so it decided that the name would be the new iPad temporarily. This Apple weird!

The conference ended with the Apple logo, which combines the old traditional logo of the company and its colors with the other logo that was painted on the building.

This is only the summary of the conference, and we will, God willing, talk in detail during the coming hours to learn every big and small about the new iPad
