When your iPad says its 100% fully charged it actually might not be. IPad users have been very concerned because they have been hoping to get the most out of their iPads battery. When the Apple device says its 100% fully charged , it actually releases a small percentage of the charge, then charges back up, repeating this process until you unplug it. Apple says that when it reaches to this point you are guaranteed 10 hours at least of  battery life.

                 How many times have we heard about                       smaller Apple iPad?
  

       How many times have we heard about smaller Apple iPad ?  Well we know that Apple doesn't have much pressure on Samsung or Amazon.  Apple says to keep the product pipeline narrow and the consumers choice very simple. Why would it want to make it more complicated to a market it already owns? Apple has tested on a lot of screen sizes before it picked on the 9.7-inch form. We have seen some reports that Apple was working on iPads with 6-inch screens, 7-inch screens, 7.85-inch screens and, now, 8-inch screens.

Winter

I absolutely love winter for a lot of reasons. One reason why i love winter is because I enjoy going sledding with my friends and having snowball fights. Also because i like being with my family watching Christmas movies while drinking hot chocolate. My last reason is Christmas of course ...opening up presents and spending time with my favorite people.
