Advantages Looks good, light and easy to carry, functional, starts up quickly
Disadvantages Concerns over build quality, poor camera, software glitches can be annoying

I have never been a huge advocate of Apple products although I must be honest here and say the huge price tags attached to many of their laptop and desktop computers has something to do with that. However I do have reservations about the closed system they use and, if I am honest, dislike just how big they have become in recent times. I've owned an iPod Touch for a few years now and one of the things I love about it is its ability to work as a media player and a tool for surfing the web. When Apple announced the launch of the iPad I was intrigued as it struck me as being like a larger version ... more

Advantages Great design; sounds great with through headphones and speakers; powerful; easy to use.
Disadvantages Somewhat dated interface; poor battery life; cameras; not much different from other iOS devices.

Nowadays, buying an Apple product such as the iPad comes down to whether you are against the company or not. The company used to be well-respected by many but has now gone downhill in terms of its reputation, with high pricing and lack of innovation being used as arguments against it. As such, not everyone will buy the iPad 2 after being told it’s a good product. I can recommend it, however, to anyone who, a) doesn’t absolutely hate Apple, and b) can afford it. The iPad 2 has its shares of flaws and doesn’t outweigh the competition but it should be one of your first choices if you’re buying a ... more

ILove the IPad!!! 15/02/2012

User recommends the product

Advantages So lightweight, Great Design, Incredibly Fast, Easy to use, Brilliant Battery life
Disadvantages Its a bit on the pricey side

My friend recently bought an Ipad and after a few days of being the extremely pleasant and simply the bestest best friend ever to her in the whole wide world…she let me borrow it for a few days! Quite a few of my friends had got an Ipad and all of them said that I should get one because it’s fantastic. I was going to buy one straight away, but when my friend said that I could borrow it, I thought that I might as well try before I buy. Features The Ipad2 is the newest version of the Ipad and this 32GB version is the one with the 2nd highest storage space, there are also 16GB and 64GB versions ... more

Advantages It's an Apple device, that's all you need to know
Disadvantages Used mainly by unlikeable people

Besides from sounding like a dual-layer, 6 droplet rated lady's sanitary towel with wings, and being as portable as a heaving a dead rat around in your trouser pocket, the iPad 2 is actually a very good device to use. My wife has one, and has used it as a reason to mock me and remind me of my lack of tablet based computing until I got my Sony Tablet S. I can't blame her, because the machine itself is very easy to use, fast, responsive, and the Apple name tag makes its owners turn into rude, fart sniffing members of society. It is basically an oversized iPod Touch, with a higher price tag to go ... more

iPad 2 - Possibly the best tablet on the market for its price 18/03/2012

User recommends the product

Advantages Possibly the best tablet on the market, excellent screen, apps, cheaper
Disadvantages Battery life, lack of flash support

I'm sure the vast majority of those buying an iPad 2 will be very pleased with it. For the most part it lives up to the hype and is a very seductive piece of kit. After downloading iTunes onto the computer and registering, setting up the iPad is a doddle as it's simply a case of connecting it to the computer and the automatic 'synching' process does the rest. Connecting to the internet via Wi-Fi with my 'N' router was as easy as entering the password and I have to say the response time of the Safari web browser was very impressive, with pages loading very quickly making web browsing a joy. The ... more

Apple iPad 2
Review with images
14/09/2012

Advantages Sleek, durable, fast
Disadvantages No flash, no usb, camera quality

Intro Despite already having both a laptop and a MacBook, when i saw that my local tesco had the iPad 2's reduced from £399 to just £329, I decided to buy one as at that price it was hard to resist! What is an iPad? An iPad is a tablet computer. It is a bit like a cross between a laptop and an iPhone and it is basically a large screen which you operate by simply touching it. No keyboard, mouse or any other bulky accessories - everything that you need is built into the device. The iPad wirelessly connects to the Internet so it can be used in any room around the house - really handy. It also ... more

Ipad 2 - not worth the RRP - but a nice piece of kit 09/06/2012

User recommends the product

Advantages Easy to use, looks good, fast and responsive
Disadvantages Battery life, price, extra things to purchase such as cases etc

When the Ipad 2 was released, i have to be honest and thought it would be a bit of a 'damp squid'. I had owned the original Ipad, and although i was impressed at first with its much bigger screen for surfing the web and playing games - i struggled to see from the media what all the fuss was about. When the Ipad 2 was released i thought to myself that i would not allow myself to be tempted - after all its new features didnt strike me as something worth paying the almighty price tag for. Then, at Christmas, i recieved the Ipad 2 as a gift, and before i knew it i was one of the people out ... more

Not much new, but what's wrong with that? 03/05/2011

User recommends the product

Advantages Ease of use, portability, and tons of functionality.
Disadvantages Not much new versus the last iPad, and lack of a physical keyboard makes for slower typing

The iPad 2 is an odd product. It's hard to explain just how amazing having one feels, but I will try to put it into words. Before I got the iPad I did not think that I even wanted one. I already owned an iPhone and I had a laptop as well. But when I was given it for Christmas I quickly fell in love with it. The first thing you notice when you turn the iPad on is how crisp the screen looks. The screen readjusts itself to match the orientation you hold it in, even if you hold it upside down! It feels good in your hands and the smooth screen is cool to the touch. Eventually smudges begin to ... more

Advantages Light, Fun, Fast, Feel first class!
Disadvantages Price - although it has lowered recently.

Introduction The much awaited release of the iPad came and went before we could turn on the future-bricks of hell - which I'm sure are the closest thing to the ancestors of the Armageddon, the iPads are smarter than humans already, they are only limbless; this separates them from us humans - nothing else, a technological takoever is only round the corner. Consider these the scouts, they video you, you feed them your information, you give them energy whenever they tell you, you give them a safety jacket to keep them safe...these are the first step to taking over the human race, next our ... more

Disadvantages Price

Ipad Review: Introduction: The Ipad is one of many products on offer by the giant consumer electronics firm: Apple. Before having purchased my Ipad, I was already an owner of a Macbook Pro and an Iphone. Now initially I wasn’t really keen on the concept of the Ipad, I saw it as being quite gimmicky and rather pointless. I saw it as exploiting a gap in the market: between a phone and a laptop, that didn’t really need to be exploited. Last year, whilst at university, I broke my wrist in an American football game and was thus unable to make any notes in my lectures, but wasn’t keen on having to ... more
