The iPad 4 is a big surprise for performance oriented users, but for the users of The New iPad, it is more just angry. The "flagship" tablet that was just bought for a short time was eliminated, which is difficult to balance users' minds. Compared with The New iPad, the iPad 4 has three changes, namely, SOC, front camera and Lightning interface. Of course, the upgrade of SOC has the greatest impact on users. This article will use actual tests to see how much the A6X of the iPad 4 has improved compared with the A5X.

At the Apple press conference, Apple officially announced that the iPad 4 is twice as fast as the original The New iPad in terms of CPU and GPU. Ordinary users may not have any idea about these values. The author will use some quantifiable and visible differences to tell you how far the iPad 4 has progressed.

CPU Performance Testing

The CPU of the A6X is the same as the A6 of the iPhone 5, but the frequency is higher, reaching 1.39G. This is not only higher in frequency than the previous A5X, but also much higher in efficiency. Since the author has also conducted performance tests on iPhone 5 and iPad 4 before, I won't go into details here. Let's take a look at the results directly.

The CPU is single threaded, and the javascript web page scores browsermark. The iPad 4 scores twice as much as The New iPad. It seems that Apple's propaganda is true (on the iPad 4, under The New iPad, the same below).

CPU and memory test Geekbench, iPad 4 has more than doubled that of The New iPad, and A6X has significantly improved its overall performance.

The game loading test is demonstrated by video here, and it can be seen that the iPad 4 is faster to load both menus and game scenes (the left side of the first half of the video is the iPad 4, and the lower side of the second half is the iPad 4).

GPU performance test

GLBenchmark 2.5.1， The old GPU performance test software is relatively objective, and the results show that the graphics performance of iPad 4 can indeed reach twice that of The New iPad.

Game measurement

Here are some games that have high requirements for GPU. In the past, The New iPad had only two choices to play these games, one is to "simulate low resolution", the other is to reduce special effects. Let's see how much the iPad 4 has improved. Some of these games have been updated in time due to the launch of iPad 4 and iPad mini, which will support these devices better.

The road gap is very obvious. The road surface of The New iPad is "pasted" together, while the iPad 4 is superior in terms of light, shadow and details. (Click to view the original picture, go up to iPad 4 and down to The New iPad)
