Apple defined the tablet computer with the original iPad just two years ago. And now, with their latest iPad, they have pushed boundaries that nobody has pushed before – and not only usability boundaries, but technical boundaries as well, such as their inclusion of a Retina display.
After the original iPad had launched, something truly amazing happened: dozens of companies who didn’t give a rat’s ass about tablets just months before suddenly decided it would be a good idea for them to create one. Of course, as any of these companies would tell you, that had nothing to do with the fact that Apple had just released what would become one of the most popular devices of all time.
So, let’s fast forward. How are these companies who suddenly stumbled upon the idea of tablet computing faring today? I think Apple’s domination of the tablet market says it all. Nevertheless, in the spirit of “me, too!” gadget makers, enjoy the below chart assembled by Redmond Pie showing how the new iPad stacks up to current and former offerings from many different manufacturers!
