Apple released the third-generation iPad in March 2012. The third-generation iPad kept many of the same features found on earlier versions, such as the 9.7-inch display, 30-pin dock connector, options for 16GB, 32GB, or 64GB of internal storage space, and it was available in a WiFi-only or WiFi + Cellular model. The cellular connectivity did step up from the iPad 2, with the third-generation iPad now offering 3G and LTE connectivity. The front-facing camera remained the same at 0.3MP VGA, and the rear-facing camera was bumped to a 5MP with the ability to record 1080p video. Other features of the third-generation iPad include iOS 5.1 along with the Apple A5X chip, WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, a home button, volume rocker, and function switch that could be used to mute and/or lock the rotation.
