Should You Change To The iPad 2 Today?

By Brian Appleberry


The iPad 2 has been in the news, so most of us are aware that it has been released. Apple launches always create a lot of buzz. Possibly it's because of all the fan boys, or is it just because Apple produces quality products? From an impartial standpoint, I think it is a combination of these. Following on one year from when the first iPad was launched, the iPad 2 is now available. Today, I will look at what different with this new release and if going over to the iPad 2 makes sense.

As for the physical size, the iPad 2 is a lot smaller in size than the first iPad. The screen size continues to be the same at a nice 9.7 inches; nevertheless, the thickness of iPad 2 has been reduced by a third of the original size, which of course is a great thing. The weight of the iPad 2 has also seen a diminution with it now weighing in on the scales at six hundred grams. That's very light. I've had both an iPad and an iPad 2 and I have got to state there is an evident deviation in its feel. Any thought you may have that it will not work as well, due to the size modifications, could not be more wrong.

The relative impact of iPad movies on your situation can be remarkable and cause issues of all varieties. No one really can effectively address all the different situations that could arise with this particular topic. So we feel this is just an ideal time to take a break and assess what has just been covered. This is important information that can help you, and there is no doubting that. If you continue, we know you will not be unhappy with what we have to offer in this article.

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 availability of the iPad 2 has likewise caused the inclusion of two cameras. You will find the cameras set at both the back and the front of the device. The first iPad didn't come with cameras in the least, so this is a major feature if you're bothered about having a camera on your device. A more or less better capability of one of the cameras is the ability to shoot in 720p HD. Video calling and fun pictures are now possible with the new iPad with the add-on of FaceTime and Photobooth. With FaceTime, the front camera permits your calling partner to watch you and the back camera lets him see what you can see, on the back side of the iPad.

Moving up from the iPad to the iPad 2 is, I would suppose, for those who feel the need for the faster processors and have money. Even though the upgrades are an improvement, it's nothing serious, apart from perhaps the camera which is a brand new inclusion.
