What Is New With The iPad 2?

By Catherine Bader


For many of us, it is unimaginable to escape the fact that the iPad 2 is out. There is always a good deal of hype when it comes to Apple products. Apple lovers could be the cause of this or is it truly that their releases are so good? I would propose it could be both, talking as an impartial person in this. Twelve months separate the launching dates of the iPad and now the iPad 2. The one question that enters almost all people's minds is 'is it worth getting the new iPad?', and that is the question I will try to resolve in this mini-review.

Regarding the physical size, the iPad 2 is smaller than the original iPad. The iPad 2's screen size has remained the same at a nice 9.7 inches; nevertheless, the thickness of iPad 2 has been reduced by one third of the original size, which of course is a great thing. The iPad 2 is likewise much lighter, tipping the scale at just a little more than 600g. That's very light. If you handle the iPad and the new iPad 2, the change in design can be felt. Any thought you may have that it will not work as well, as a result the size changes, could not be more incorrect.

Now that you have read through this far, has that stirred your opinions in any way? There is a great deal in the body of information surrounding iPad movies. A lot of people have found certain other areas are beneficial and contribute good information. You should be careful about making too many presumptions until the big picture is more clear. It is always a wise decision to determine what your circumstances call for, and then go from that point. The rest of our talk will add to what we have mentioned so far.

When compared to the first model, the iPad 2 is speedier. The graphics processor is touted by Apple to be 9 times speedier than the original iPad. This is a remarkable improvement if we assume that as read. The reason for this improvement is for demanding games and the camera, which we'll talk about before long. Plus, the change from an A4 to an A5 chip would mean that Apple has a better processor inside. The latest iPad's A5 dual core processor is what makes it faster than the last model. I surely noted it was a lot faster, even with a lot of programs running in the background. Loading time is faster and I notice this when using the web and video functions on both iPad models.

The release of the iPad 2 has as well resulted in the addition of two cameras. These are located at the front side and at the rear. If you care for the idea of having a camera, then you will like this shift of stance as when the iPad was first released, there were no cameras. One camera snaps 720p HD and the second camera isn't as good. The iPad 2 decided to add FaceTime and Photobooth, giving you the ability to video call and take all sorts of pics. With FaceTime, the front camera lets your calling partner to see you and the back camera lets him see what you can see, on the back side of the iPad.

Switching from the iPad to the iPad 2 is, I would state, for people who feel the need for the faster processors and have the available cash. The new features are not out of this world, although you do now have cameras and all in all the enhancements are excellent.
