New iPad Runs 10 Degrees Hotter Than iPad 2; But Within Operating Temperature Limit
Ever since the new iPad has been launched, several users have been complaining on Apple support forums and MacRumors forums that their iPad feels a lot warmer than iPad 2 after extended usage.
While most users are reporting that the new iPad gets warmer than the new iPad 2, it doesn't get hot, not even laptop warm, some users are reporting that it getting too warm, making it difficult to hold the new iPad.

Mine gets warm but not HOTbut I live in England so it makes a nice Hand warmer in the cold wind :)

I found the new iPad no different to my previous one.. However I'm not always running on LTE. I think my iPhone feels hotter on heavy use..
-
I used to live in uk. I wish we iPad back then. It was very cold there in winter.
-
Mine was very hot on Friday after buying it, though screen was up full and WIFI was working hard backing up from iCloud16GB WIFI only
-
Wait till u see who hot the iPhone gets?
-
iPad, it's new and hot!
-
Why need to test ? Internal energy is converted to light and heat while using. 70% more power consumption than ipad 2. It means more heat ... Hmm
-
how hot will it get in the summer then....thats when my ipad 2 got incredibly hot too
-
33,6 C isn't even body temperature.. i'm not buying the ''too warm to hold''
-
I got the WiFi version only, not the 4G LTE, so I am not experiencing a lot of heat compared to other people, but I gotta say I have noticed that it feels indeed warmer than my iPad 2. What's more, the back area gives me a feeling of static electricity which is a little bit annoying, like ants walking on my fingers lol (this only happens when iPad is charging thou).

The new iPad 2? LOL
-
that's what it is. It is the new ipad2, because it's not called the ipad3. ;)

Can this overheating issue could affect the quality of the New iPad after a period of time? This will surely affect the sales of this new tablet. I think the best solution would be to extend the warranty of the New iPad, but it would be better if they will recall every device and let the consumers wait for the improved version. Just my opinion!
