Should You Make the Switch To The iPad 2?

By Stephanie Burns


The iPad 2 has mentioned a lot in the news, so most of us are aware that it now available. There is always a good deal of hoopla when it comes to Apple products. Apple lovers could be the cause of this or is it truly that their products are so good? I would propose it could be both, talking as a neutral in this. A year separates the launching dates of the iPad and now the iPad 2. Thus, if you got the first model, I will now give my opinion on if you should consider shifting to the iPad 2.

You'll now be able to use ipad movies downloads. When it comes to physical size, the iPad 2 is tinier compared to the first iPad. The size of the screen has stayed the same at a pleasant 9.7 inches; nevertheless, the thickness of this newer model has been reduced by 33% of the original size, which of course is a great thing. The iPad 2 is likewise weighs less, tipping the scale at just a little more than 600g. Not heavy at all. I've held both an iPad and an iPad 2 and I have got to say there is an evident deviation in its feel. Any thought you may have that it will not work as well, because of the size alterations, could not be more wrong.

The iPad 2 is a lot faster than the first iPad. 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 take that as read. Gaming requisites and the introduction of cameras is the reason this had to happen. The processor is also much speedier, as Apple have advanced from the old A4 chip to an A5 chip. The newly released iPad's A5 dual core processor is what makes it speedier than the first model. No matter what I was using, I could distinguish that it was speedier. I've likewise checked out both the iPad and iPad 2 side by side and I can certainly say you note things, such as web pages and video, loading faster.

Now, let's move on to the recent addition of the cameras; not simply one, but two cameras are on the iPad 2. The two cameras are located at the front and at the back. This is a major move as the initial iPad did not have camera in the least and this may be essential to you. One camera shoots 720p HD and the second camera isn't as wonderful. Video calling and fun photographs are now feasible with the new iPad with the inclusion of FaceTime and Photobooth. The front camera positions you face-to-face when video calling using FaceTime whereas the iPad's back camera gives a view of your surroundings.

All in all, I would personally recommend 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. Although the upgrades are an improvement, it's nothing groundbreaking, apart from possibly the camera which is a brand new inclusion.
