Is The iPad 2 Worth Purchasing?

By Kristina Alsop


The iPad 2 has mentioned a lot in the news, so almost of us know that it has been released. There is always intense media coverage of anything Apple do. Is this due to Apple's product line being terrific or merely noise from their loyal fan base? I would propose it could be one or the other, speaking as a neutral in this. A year separates the launching dates of the iPad and now the iPad 2. So, if you purchased the initial model, I will now offer my opinion on if you should consider changing to the iPad 2.

The first thing to notice with the iPad 2 is the decrease in physical size. The iPad 2 is skinnier by roughly a third of the original although the screen dimensions remain unaltered. The weight of the iPad 2 has likewise seen a decrease with it now tipping the scales at just 600 grams. That's light. These changes are perceptible as I observed by holding the iPad and iPad 2. Any thought you may have that it will not function as well, as a result the size changes, could not be further from the truth.

There just is no denying about the ability of iPad movies to dramatically alter some situations is incredible. At times there is simply way too much to even attempt to cover in one go, and that is important for you to realize and take home. But I wanted to pause for a moment so you can reflect on the value of what you have just read. We are highly confident about the ability of what we offer, today, to make a difference. The balance of this article is not to be overlooked because it can make a huge difference.

The iPad 2 works faster than the original iPad. First up, Apple touts that its graphics processor is nine times faster than the initial iPad. If that is right, it is a huge jump forward. The reason for this improvement is for demanding games and the camera, which we'll discuss soon. Plus, the change from an A4 to an A5 chip means that Apple has a quick processor inside. The newly released iPad's A5 dual core processor is what makes it speedier than the last model. No matter what I was using, I could tell that it was zippier. I've likewise taken a look at both the original iPad and new iPad side by side and I can definitely say you note things, such as web pages and video, loading faster.

The iPad 2 now comes with two cameras. You will find the cameras situated at both the rear and the front. If you care for the idea of having a camera, then you will welcome this shift of stance considering when the iPad was originally released, there were no cameras. One camera shoots 720p HD and the other isn't as good. FaceTime and PhotoBooth are just two new additions to the iPad which give you the ability to make video calls and take great pictures, respectively. The front camera puts you face-to-face when video calling through FaceTime whereas the iPad's back camera gives a view of your surroundings.

All in all, I would personally urge upgrading from the original iPad to the iPad 2 if you have the money, however if you're not interested in slightly faster loading times then don't bother. If we dismiss the cameras, then the changes are not significant but do make it a better model.
