A gyroscope adds twisting motions to this, which gives the iPad 2 much more accurate sensing of movement in space. Accelerometers can feel when the iPad is moved up/down, left/right and backwards/forwards. The original iPad did have an accelerometer like the new one, but the gyroscope adds one thing – the ability to sense rotation as well as movement. More on the iPad 2 camera quality further down the page.Īnother difference is the iPad 2 has a gyroscope just like the iPhone 4. It will be nice to snap photos of notes in a well lit meeting to import to Evernote. The cameras seem to primarily be intended for things like FaceTime or other video conferencing. The cameras are not going to win a photo contest due to the quality specifically they are a little poor for still images and are very grainy in low light.
The original iPad doesn’t have any while iPad 2 has a pair, on the front and the back.

The most heralded upgrade is the two cameras on the iPad 2. We didn’t notice an audible difference in the sound quality coming from the iPad to the iPad 2, especially with headphones plugged in, so don’t expect your MP3s to suddenly sound better.
We still wish the speakers could go, “up to 11”, to handle noisy environments, but they are sufficiently loud for most settings. While the quality of sound is no better the volume is slightly louder on the new iPad, which is a plus. One big upgrade is the built-in speakers. The switches and buttons are also at a slight angle and take some getting used to, but we quickly adjusted. This takes a bit of getting used to, but you’ll get the hang of it after a few days use. This is due to the oh-so-slightly different angle compared to the previous iPad. One side effect of the tapered edges is that plugging in the dock connector can be a bit challenging, especially if you try to do so in the dark. It’s still a bit heavy for holding for extended periods, but we are impressed with how much difference. When you hold the iPad 2 in your hands, the new flat back, tapered sides and lighter weight combine to make it feel much more like a device that is meant to be held.

The new iPad 2 is made of just two pieces of aluminum, again similar to the MacBook Air or MacBook Pro unibody construction, which is one way that Apple is able to deliver the lighter and thinner iPad experience. This is part of the thinning of the iPad and leads to a new flat back. They take their style cue from the new MacBook Air, tapering to a sharper edge on the front side and rounded towards the back of the iPad 2.
Once you get past the new lighter feel of the iPad 2, the edges are what stands out when the iPad 2 is held. While there are those who will argue that the iPad 2 is but an incremental upgrade, all of the incremental changes add up to deliver a markedly improved iPad. The refinements are small, like the iPad 2, but instantly noticeable when you hold the iPad 2 in your hand. The iPad 2 is a refinement of the most popular tablet made. The Apple iPad 2 is the most usable tablet device available today and we highly recommend the device. The iPad 2 starts at $499 and goes up to $829 depending on the storage and connectivity options you choose.
The iPad 2 adds front and rear facing cameras, a faster dual core processor and several other improvements to the device that has set the standard for what consumers expect when they buy a tablet. The new iPad has WiFi as well as options for 3G connections from AT&T and Verizon and comes in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB sizes. The Apple iPad 2 is a 1.3 pound tablet computer from Apple which has a 9.7″ display and comes in black or white. Our iPad 2 Review will show you what’s new, how the iPad 2 compares to the iPad, how the iPad 2 performs and most importantly help you decide if the iPad 2 is the right tablet for you.
