An overwhelming 82 per cent of Apple’s new iPad owners are very satisfied while 16 per cent are somewhat satisfied with their shiny new device, a recent iPad satisfaction survey reveals. The results fade away the doubts and fears that were raised in the media that said the device runs “significantly hotter" than previous models.
The ranking by Consumer Reports said it did not find the considerably hotter temperatures to be cause for concern. “The problem was limited to times when the device was playing a demanding game with the screen fully bright,” it said.
The nonprofit organization also called the new iPad’s high-resolution screen as best among all tablets since it provides the best detail and color accuracy.
The publication also commended the tablet’s fast connectivity and camera. During the survey, nearly 74 per cent of the users appreciated the high-res Retina Display of the new device.
It said, the iPad “establishes a new benchmark of excellence”. However, in contrast the device’s display does, in at least some applications, serve to magnify imperfections in content designed for lower-screen resolution, it emphasized.
The new iPad has been ranked above tablets like: the Toshiba Corp. Excite 10LE, the Pantech Co. Element, the Sony Corp. Tablet P, and Samsung Electronics Co.'s Galaxy Tab 7.7.
