iPad 2 and iPhone 5 All you Need to Know [Report]

It worth reading, a very interesting report posted last night by Joshua Topolsky, editor-in-chief of Engadget, reveals new details about Apple's next products scheduled for 2011. Talking about iPad 2, iPhone 5 and the next generation Apple TV. Engadget has a pretty solid track record with their Apple scoops and the details will surprise you.


The sources claims that iPad 2 will feature a higher resolution screen with Retina Display, the same as iPhone 4’s one. Couple of days back, Kevin Rose of Digg has revealed some information including that it will feature higher resolution screen without being Retina Display.

Engadget also reports that the iPad 2 will get a SD card slot, yeah, that big hole we’ve already seen in leaked cases. The iPad 2 is set to come out in April, won’t feature a USB port and will be “lighter”.

About iPhone 5! Engadget reports that the iPhone 5 will be a “completely re-designed handset,” and will feature Apple’s new CPU, A5. The iPhone 5 is on track for a summer launch and it’s being tested discreetly by senior staff at Apple. Both iPhone 5 and iPad 2 will feature a Qualcomm chipset that does triple duty as the CDMA / GSM / UMTS baseband processor.

Last and not least, Apple is working on the next generation of Apple TV, which will include the speedy A5 chip from the iPhone 5 and that the chip is powerful enough to bring 1080P video to Apple’s TV.

What do you think? Is that all gonna be real? Share us your ideas in the comment section below.
