IPAD 2 REVIEW

The Apple iPad 2 comes with iOS 4.3, bringing a host of important new features and improvements. The iPad 2 is an undeniably faster and more responsive tablet than its predecessor. With a new dual-core A5 processor that promises to be twice as fast with nine times the graphics performance.

The IPad 2 has the Multi-Touch display which uses electrical fields to sense your touch. If you’ve ever used an iPhone or iPod Touch, the iPad 2 will feel immediately familiar. The height and width may look similar, but in terms of thickness, the iPad has done some dieting, shrinking from 13.4mm thick on the original model to 8.8mm thick for the iPad 2. It’s thinner, even, than the iPhone 4.

The IPad 2 comes complete with 2 cameras, one forward facing and one rear facing camera, supports 720p video capture. Both able to record video or snap photos, the original iPad doesn’t even have one. Another advantage of iPad 2 models enabled with 3G is the added capability of assisted GPS (A-GPS). The Battery Life is about 10 hours. The IPad 2 operates without an on-off switch, it goes to sleep when not in use, and comes on instantly because it utilizes flash storage vs. a hard drive.

The iPad has more games than any other tablet, and many of the titles feature graphic and play quality on par with full-blown gaming consoles. The iPad 2 adds the same three-axis gyroscope sensor shared by the iPhone 4 and iPod Touch, similar to the feeling of holding a Nintendo Wii remote. The gyro’s appeal is mostly for gaming, allowing for more precise motion control and realistic navigation within virtual environments.

IPAD 2 PRICE

For the price, the iPad 2 offers very good value. Apple now offers both white and black versions of the iPad 2 in every price and configuration. The base model starts at $499, giving you 16GB of storage and a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet. If you want more storage for all your applications, photos, music, and videos, you can jump up to the 32GB ($599) or 64GB ($699) models.
