Apple launched the fourth-generation tablet just nine months after the iPad 3. The latest model in the popular range packs the same 9.7in Retina Display as its predecessor, but also includes key upgrades such a beefed up processor, lightning dock connecto...

Powerful A6X processor; excellent battery life; vibrant Retina Display; iOS has the best selection of apps; outperforms the Surface RT and Nexus 7, LTE when you can get it is super fast.

EE's 4G plans are too expensive; iPad doesn't work natively with existing 30pin accessories and peripherals...

The iPad 4 is the best Apple tablet yet by a long way, offering twice the processing power of its predecessor. The iOS ecosystem still has the biggest and best selection of tablet-specific applications too. But with EE's 4G coverage still offering incons...

This fourth-generation model is only a step up from the third-gen iPad, so for owners of that, this upgrade is of no interest. If you have an older iPad or are considering your first tablet purchase, there’s plenty to enjoy, from the 4G support to t...

Great Retina display; Amazingly good battery life; Nice range of apps; 4G support; improved FaceTime camera.

Not terribly portable; Lacks memory card slot.

This fourth-generation iPad has got a boost in the power stakes and now offers 4G support as well as a better FaceTime snapper – but it's still not as portable as its rivals...

It’s daft to say Apple’s fourth-generation iPad is its best yet - how could it not be? If you're sure you want an iPad, fanboy or not, it's the one to go for. Still, there’s no need at all to upgrade if you have an iPad 3, of course - wait for the 5...

With the Apple iPad 4G, the tech giant has shocked gadget fans across the world and upset convention. The four generation iOS slate arrives just seven months after the third model, breaking Apple’s unwritten rule of annual instalments. On the surface n...

Apple’s not tinkered with the formula much: the metal iPad 4G is the identical size to the third gen, and it’s all the better for it. This is the most polished, premium slate on the market, even if it’s not the lightest.The screen is the crown jewel though, and has to be seen to be believed. You cannot see individual pixels, which makes reading and surfing the web on the blindingly fast Safari an...

You could argue that the new port on the bottom of the new iPad 4G is a downgrade: the smaller Lightning port is easier to use, but it does mean it won’t work with existing cables, docks and accessories. This might be less of an issue for the iPad than the iPhone or iPod touch however - it’s always been too big for most docks anyway - and Apple has made up for this change (which, let’s not forget...

While the likes of Google, Asus and Samsung have been giving it a good crack lately, the Apple iPad remains the very best tablet you can buy today - and now that Apple’s got global 4G and its new Lightning port on board, don’t worry about an immediate...
