iPad5 is Getting Closer

Got your sleeping bag?


It appears for those in the I-Can't-Wait queue, which is probably already forming somewhere, that the new iPad 5 is slightly smaller (9.7") and getting really close to its debut in October or November. Last years event took place October 23rd.

Dimensions above show a very slight length difference with a modest width reduction. You might think of it as the iPad mini on steroids.

Faster CPU

 As with the iPhone5s, it too will come with a version of the new A7 CPU chip, for faster processing, much faster. 

Compact thinner design

It is also rumored that the iPad5 will have mini-style dual speakers and dual volume buttons. And because of the switch from dual LED to a single LED light bar, it allows for a thinner case and a higher power efficient lighting technology which then allows for a smaller battery, supposedly with similar use time. 

Video showing dimensions

Here is a video posted at macrumors showing the differences between the 3 models, though admittedly the video is rather poorly made and rudimentary in technique. It's unclear what part the company which made the video supplies for the iPad5 but clearly they have a connection, and for now I'll assume they provided some part or parts for the new model.

The latest details 

Macrumors has a page dedicated to the iPad5 and it is being continuously updated from wherever they can find details and rumors worldwide. Macrumors iPad5 page.
