Performance
The iPad 3 was powered by the Apple A5X chipset, featuring a dual-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A9 CPU and PowerVR SGX543MP4 graphics. This setup provided a noticeable performance boost over previous models, particularly in graphics tasks and multimedia. Paired with 1GB of RAM, the device was capable of handling iOS 5.1 smoothly, with an upgrade path up to iOS 9.3.5. However, the 1GB RAM sometimes limited multitasking capabilities, especially with software updates requiring more resources.
