Faster processor and graphics
There's little doubt that the next iPad will have a more powerful next-generation processor with improved graphical capabilities. Despite the power boost, that chip, which most people expect to be called the A6 (the iPad 2 and iPhone 4S have the A5), is supposed to be more energy-efficient, so it isn't expected to be a battery killer.

Whether the A6 will be a quad-core chip remains unclear, but we should get all the details in March, with Apple boasting how many times the graphics have been boosted (e.g. "4x faster graphics than iPad 2").

The discussion hasn’t started yet. Why don’t you begin it?
