iPad 2, all about the new Apple iPad

New iPad 2. It's here. So we can call Apple tablet has just been unveiled and wearing many waiting more than a year. Not so for those who bought the first version because the iPad 2 and leaves it as something historical, but no news on the operating system is something we cripple the new iPad. The Apple iPad 2 retains the essence of the first model but adds features that were already needed in this tablet, including a new design that makes it thinner and more manageable in hand, the front camera (also opens the rear) and a new dual-core processor for Android tablets presented in the past MWC 2011 would not escape into the race for power.

No news yet on the screen or connectivity. We now give an overview of all the features of the new iPad 2. If you are not well versed in the world of tablets, hard to find the differences in design between the two models of Apple tablets at a glance. The new iPad 2 because we like that is slimmer (only 8.8 mm thick, less than the iPhone 4) and occupies a little less than the last.

With regard to form, still betting on the curves which I think difficult handling. I am more in favor of straight lines in the style of the phone. Design change iPad 2 we especially like the reduced weight, reduced from 630 to 601 grams in the model only WiFi, and a little more for the 3G.

The final screen size does not change nor resolution. Remains at 9.7 inches with 1024 × 768 pixels, and multi-IPS type. No news on the frame around it, which we would have liked to see reduced. Where is yes you will notice differences in camera featuring double. Not talking about a 3D like the Optimus Pad but one front and one rear.

Apple currently does not give details of their resolution for photos, but video is VGA front and rear can record at 720p. Keep looking for a real utility to the rear camera. Apple's new A5 processor at 1 GHz is responsible along with RAM that does not specify what it is but it seems logical value that will be of 512 MB.

The group promises an improvement of 9 times the original figure of IPAD and the same amount, promising up to 10 hours of autonomy in the end, making use of the equipment, are less. As an interesting change adds a gyroscope. On the connectivity there is no change either. It was rumored at length about the possibility that Apple incorporated at least one SD card slot or USB port, but nothing.

In this respect, the new Apple iPad remains as closed, a shame. The integrated speaker seems improved but does not indicate anything that Apple is stereo. There are developments in the range of accessories, which will result in much more revenue for the company. The most notable is that it accords to 1080p HDMI output and that works for all applications, a novelty which we also rejoice.

The same cable will charge the iPad because we can connect the power cord at the same time. Also cover the house has brand new and is now looking better and not add weight or thickness of the new iPad 2. These cases will be called Smart Covers and can be changed to suit. IPad joins using magnets and only plug or screen or back, can become support.

It is a kind of second skin. In addition, the inside is used to clean the screen. You can buy polyurethane or leather in various colors. Now that I think Apple has made a case according to its tablet, not the first. Prices remain high, 39 and 69 dollars depending on the material. The new iPad 2 will be available from the U.S.

March 11 and March 25 in Spain in three models: 16, 32 and 64 GB, with teams only WiFi and WiFi +3 G, as with the current Apple tablet. And attention because there are two models, both black and white (from the first day, not like the iPhone) with very good looking second. As for prices, the improvements are not a price increase and we have a new iPad from 488 euros.

It would be the most basic model with only WiFi connectivity and internal memory of 16 GB. We end this review the new iPad 2 saying that this minor change should boost sales of Apple tablet, placing it on par performance with its rivals, but with a iPad 3 on the horizon even before the end of the year.

Or at least, a new version of IOS to take advantage of the hardware.
