5.9/10 💬 Comment

With one SIM card slot, the Apple iPad 3 (4G 16GB) allows download up to 100 Mbps for internet browsing, but it also depends on the carrier.

Good connectivity of this device includes Bluetooth 4.0 + A2DP, WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n [wifi4] (2.4GHz, 5GHz), but it lacks NFC connection.

Including the battery, the Apple iPad 3 (4G 16GB) tablet has 662 grams and it's a very thin device, only 9.4mm.
