Apple added its new 128GB iPad to the Apple Store on Tuesday. The site promises any orders will ship in one to three days.
The pricey new device comes in two models: Wi-Fi only ($799) and
Wi-Fi+LTE ($929). Previously, the 9.7-inch iPad with retina display was
available only with 16GB, 32GB or 64GB of storage.
Apart from the
increased memory, the new iPad is identical to the other models in the
line, and customers can choose between two colors: black or white
When Apple debuted the third-generation iPad with retina display,
many expressed concerns that apps that support the higher resolution
would demand more memory, and that low-capacity models — especially the
16GB version — wouldn't be able to hold many retina apps. With a 128GB
retina iPad, fears about inadequate storage are mitigated... for a
price.
“With twice the storage capacity and an unparalleled selection of
over 300,000 native iPad apps, enterprises, educators and artists have
even more reasons to use iPad for all their business and personal
needs,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide
Marketing, in a statement.
Following a circulation of rumors, Apple announced last week it would be introducing a 128 GB iPad
with retina display to its product lineup. Despite its typical fanfare
announcements, the company said in a press release it would be coming to
stores in the near future.
