If you have been wondering if New iPad is “magical”, you might want to take a look at this video comparison between the New iPad 3rd generation and the Galaxy Tab 10.1 for a reality check.

Yes, the New iPad 3rd gen comes with a higher-resolution screen but that’s about it and there’s virtually zero apps that can support that resolution.
