You've probably already seen how people with guns use the new iPad 3. And those enthusiasts who can't afford a machine gun and a shotgun, but itch to break their tablet, go out and throw it on the granite floor. And they don't just drop it, but compare it with the previous iPad. So SquareTrade employees are trying to test how durable the iPad 3 will be and how it will show itself in the confrontation with granite
tiles. We all know that the new iPad is slightly heavier than its predecessor - does this difference in weight affect the damage it receives after a fall?

The test showed that the new iPad 3 has become more fragile compared to the iPad 2 - it cannot be said that the second generation can survive such falls painlessly, but the damage to the new iPad was much more serious, especially after falling with the screen down from shoulder height. However, even when falling from a height of the waist, half of the iPad 3's screen cracked, while the iPad 2's screen cracked only from one corner. Note that in case of falling on the back surface, the tablet practically does not suffer. If you accidentally miss your iPad 3, try to drop it screen-up.
