What Is New With The iPad 2?

By Ernylla Breger


For most of us, it is impossible to escape the fact that the iPad 2 is out. Apple releases constantly create a good deal of buzz. Apple lovers could be the cause of this or is it truly that their product releases are so good? I would say it could be both, speaking as an unbiased onlooker in this. The iPad 2 was launched and released only recently, and it comes just a year after the first iPad was made public. Hence, if you got the original model, I will now give my opinion on if you should consider shifting to the iPad 2.

The first thing to notice with the iPad 2 is the reduction in in terms of size. The screen size has stayed the same at a nice 9.7 inches; nevertheless, the thickness of the second iPad has been reduced by one third of the original size, which of course is a great thing. At just 600 grams, the iPad 2 is not as heavy. That's very light. I've held both an iPad and an iPad 2 and I should say there is a noticeable difference in its feel. It would be an incorrect presumption to think that this slimmer, lighter version does not run as well.

These few things to consider will make a difference in your information as they relate to iPad movies. Of course we strongly suggest you learn more about them. We feel you will find them to be beneficial in a lot of ways. Getting a high altitude snapshot will be of immense value to you. But we have saved the best for last, and you will know what we mean once you have read through.

The new iPad is in fact a good deal faster than the original model. For the latest iPad, the performance of the graphics is announced to be nine times as fast according to Apple. This is a significant advancement if we believe that as read. Gaming demands and the introduction of cameras is the reason this had to happen. Plus, the shift from an A4 to an A5 chip would mean that Apple has a better processor inside. The A5 chip features a dual core processor and it makes a difference to the speed of the recent iPad. Regardless of what I was using, I could see that it was faster. Loading time is quicker and I observe this when using the web and video functions on both the original iPad and iPad 2.

The launch of the iPad 2 has likewise resulted in the inclusion of two cameras. The cameras are situated at the front and at the back. If you like the idea of having a camera, then you will embrace this shift of stance as when the iPad was initially released, there were no cameras. One camera shoots 720p HD and the other isn't as wonderful. FaceTime and PhotoBooth are a couple of new additions to the iPad which give you the ability to make video calls and snap interesting pictures, respectively. 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.

Overall, I would personally recommend changing over from the original iPad to the iPad 2 if you can afford it, however if you're not interested in slightly faster loading times then don't bother. Even though the upgrades are an improvement, it's nothing groundbreaking, apart from possibly the camera which is a brand new addition.
