The most impressive thing about the Apple iPad 2 is its build quality. Constructed out of a solid piece of aluminium
With a bright and vivid glass display

The editors didn't like
Poor camera quality

Design
The first thing that stands out about the iPad 2 is its beautiful shape. It is noticeably thinner than the original iPad
At 241mm tall
186mm wide and 8.8mm thick. It is worth noting that
No Retina display
Doesn't get all features of iOS 7 and likely to fall further behind in future
May struggle with demanding apps and games
Three years old
Now discontinued
Dated Screen
Cameras are poor and let the tablet down
New Model Released
Apple-only applications
Limited connectivity
Sub-standard cameras
No removable storage
No Flash support
Complex tasks are fiddly and take time
Difficult to transfer noniTunes content back and forth
The omission of Flash video is a big issue
ITunes is dated and it’s hard to transfer data without iTunes
Where's the innovation?
No retina screen
Still no Flash
Negligable performance boost
Still expensive
Not enough new to tempt existing owners
Poorquality camera
No builtin SD card reader (optional adapter only) / No USB port / Single proprietary connection
No Flash compatibility for web browsing
Can't play DivX files without a special app or file conversion
ICloud can be intrusive in its interaction with other iDevices
No display resolution bump
Trouble with backlight bleeding
Not quite worth the upgrade for iPad owners
Closed shop for content
No Flash
More features elsewhere
The biggest problem with the Apple iPad 2 is its lack of ports. It's a shame that there's no USB port – making it impossible to easily hook up other devices without buying peripherals
And the need to use iTunes to copy your music across is also frustrating.

Abstract: An year after the iPad, Apple launched the iPad 2. Faster, thinner, lighter. The original iPad created an all new tablet industry which was subsequently entered into by various Android manufacturers, some with better specs but not necessarily better exper...
How does the new iPad 2 rack up against the current competitors? On top of the table, I would say. Although iPad 2 has some shortcomings, it strikes a chord with the consumers when it comes to its easy-to-use interface and variety of apps and games. Anoth...
The iPad 2 is priced at the same price points as the first generation model. This makes it much better value than the model it is replacing, which already was good value. It is thinner, lighter, much faster, has cameras and a slightly better display an...
Our first Apple iPad review was posted in our blog. Sure, our blog was only just starting at the time and needed a boost. But that's only one side to the story. Tablets back then just couldn't match phones and weren't ready for primetime. Look at them now...

Apple's iPad was the first post-PC device that people took seriously. Microsoft, Nokia and countless manufacturers have tried to find the right balance between a tablet and a computer for the last 10 years, but the iPad was the first device to get it righ...

Apple's iPad 2 is dramatically thinner; boasts front and rear cameras; FaceTime video chat; faster processor; 3G option.
The iPad's screen resolution hasn't budged; camera photo quality is mediocre; there's still no Adobe Flash support; ports for HDMI, USB, and SD all require adapters.
The iPad 2 refines an already excellent product. Its easy-to-use interface, vast app catalog, and marathon battery life bolster Apple's claim to being the king of tablets. ...
Abstract: After the great success of the first edition it was only a matter of time before the Apple iPad 2. The Primus on the front side of the Tablet is not yet changed. The unit still has an aluminum backing and rounded corners. Through a flatter structure and a...
