Apple once again under-reported the new ipad's true battery capacity. Go and look at the teardown is live right now --- the label on actual battery is printed as 3.7v 43 wh (not 42.5 wh on their website) and 11560 mah. Ifixit managed to over-loo…

A lot of it is easy to figure out, but a few items can't be confirmed until we have a teardown. Gorilla Glass 2 is 20% thinner, so Apple took that space (and more) to put in a much bigger battery. A portion of the additional RAM will have to go …
