iPad 2 - Review


Apple introduced 2nd next generation iPad  with new Slim design which is much thinner than the iPad 1st generation. 
On the Hardware, they used Apple A5 chip -Dual core processor with same 512 MB ram like iPhone 4. Also they maintained same 10Hrs battery without compromised  by the new sleek design.
New Design:
New iPad is much 33% thinner than the 1st Generation iPad.
 It looks much slimmer than the iPhone 4 and this is  what we called "Best Hardware engineering Design"  without comprising the actually features. This new design drops the new Rumors for iPhone 5 going to way much thinner from the current 9.33mm to 7-8 mm.
Apple Dual Core Chip:
In Mobile World Congress 2011,  we seen  many Dual core Tablets and smartphones (LG Optimus2X,Samsung Galaxy S2) . now apple taken the path to go with current trend and build the custom dual core Chip(2ghz) with much faster CPU and GPU than the 1st generation A4 Chip in iPad and iPhone 4) . RAM is same as iPad 1 and iPhone 4.
Soon they use the A5 (Dual core chip) in iPhone 5 have horsepower to record 1080p videos.  Next iPhone 5 launch in very near soon they will introduce 1st Dual Core iPhone this June with iOS 5.
Front Facing and Rear Camera
Rear camera capable for 720p video recording at 30fps will be on tap from the rear-facing camera, which can also do a 5x digital zoom if you're into that kind of thing, whereas the front-facing imager will record at a more modest VGA resolution, also at 30fps.

New tablet will come with an HDMI output capable of 1080p -- which will set you back $39 for the requisite dongle, called an Apple Digital AV Adapter -- but there will sadly be no rumblings of Thunderbolt connectivity here.
Battery Life
Even though they done very slim design and maintained the same battery life.
Conculsion
With this new iPad 2 , apple set up the tough challenge to others  HP,Samsung,Blackberry and  Google. Even though there is not a much difference from previous generation  with faster CPU and camera and with the same price.
This upgrade looks like iPhone 3G to 3GS . iPad 3 only going to have Retina Display will thrown the stone to copycats.
