Few lucky Vietnam users were able to get their hands on Apple’s New iPad. The users were able to run some benchmark tests to figure out some of the specifications. The Geekbench benchmark results were able to confirm that Apple did not change the clock speed on the processor. The processor is Armv7 with the same 1.0GHz clock speed, this buries the speculations that there might be a slight bump to 1.2 or 1.5GHz in the CPU speeds.
