Comparison photos of purported iPad 3 shell point to more tapering, thicker form-factor, narrower bezel

Comparison photos of purported iPad 3 shell point to more tapering, thicker form-factor, narrower bezel:


In their own roundup of iPad 3 rumors, MICGadget includes photos of a purported iPad 3 shell. This shell is shown in comparison to an iPad 2 back shell. Notable differences include a 1mm-1.5mm thicker design, depending on where on the iPad 3 you are measuring. Also, more tapering is shown. This will likely make the iPad 3 feel thinner than the iPad 2 while being held. While not visible in the images, the report claims the iPad 3 bezel will be slightly narrower than the iPad 2′s bezel.



MIC’s sources also point to the iPad 3 having a larger camera lens. This would mean the iPad 3 has an improved camera, but MIC is uncertain of the quality. They also include some bits such as 16GB, 32GB, and 128GB iPad 3 capacities in addition to claims of a 7 inch iPad launch later this year. We wouldn’t put too much trust in that iPad mini claim, as these smaller iPad rumors typically come and go with no success.
