PaulSaint Posted 14 May, 2012 Author Share Posted 14 May, 2012 It is a 1 but if you check out the reviews of the 2 you'll see it didnt really gain that much (would you really use a tablet for video & photography?). You still get that gorgeous "high end" metal case, the really clear LED screen, 10 second start up, 70,000 apps (many free), easy to use " very rarely crashing" operating system, etc, etc "Techradar's Apple iPad 2: Verdict The lighter design, A5 processor, cameras, gyroscope, and other enhancements increase the iPad 2's value over the iPad. But the original iPad is now £100 cheaper and Apple has had a full year to innovate further without really delivering much. We really wanted to see some jaw-dropping new features. In actual real-world speed tests, the most common apps don't perform any faster... yet. Maybe that will change when developers start to optimise apps for the iPad 2's hardware. But for now, only a few apps truly benefit. So where does that leave the iPad 2? We liked: When pressed into a corner, we have to admit that the new design is attractive enough to make anyone want to upgrade. It's simply gorgeous, and retains the solid, premium feel of the original iPad. The lighter styling means more mobility, and even less reliance on a laptop. Steve Jobs talks about a post-PC world – we're not there yet, but the writing is most certainly on the wall. The speed improvements for GarageBand, iMovie, and several games are noteworthy. As with Android 3.0 tablets like the Xoom, the iPad 2's best days are certainly ahead of it. Will developers start to produce games and apps that make the most of the A5 chip inside the iPad 2? We'd like to think the answer is yes – but those same developers will not want to forget about about the 15 million people out there who already have a first generation iPad – so the extent to which games and apps will be optimised is unclear."

maddog Posted 16 May, 2012 Share Posted 16 May, 2012 £225 is a bit steep for a model which has now be superceded by 2 other models, on ebay your looking at about £180 - £200 tops. How about £150 as im just down the road at junction 7 and will save you the hassle of listing and postage etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry already turned down an offer of £200 this morning & another guy asking me questions, this iPad was purchased by a friend in Feb 2011 for holiday use only and when she tried to use it abroad the email server got blocked. In the home she preferred to use her Laptop. You wont find a better example apart from a shop. PM me your email address if you want to see some pictures?

maddog Posted 16 May, 2012 Share Posted 16 May, 2012 To be honest i can get a re-conditioned IPAD 1 of the apple site for £200. The warranty on that for a year has to be worth at least £40-£50. I will go fo that then if you cant drop it. e-mail me at ianausten51@hotmail.com if you reconsider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulSaint Posted 16 May, 2012 Author Share Posted 16 May, 2012 Would that be £200 for a 32gb machine with official Apple cover? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddog Posted 16 May, 2012 Share Posted 16 May, 2012 To be fair its £200 for a 16GB with 1 year apple cover. So yours has double the capacity for the same price but you cant offer me any sort of warranty if it should break down. Feel free to send some pics over but i wouldnt pay £225 for it, not when i can get one with cover. The capacity isnt an issue for me as with iCloud i can choose what is store locally and what i dont. If you think you can get more no probs :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jillyanne Posted 17 May, 2012 Share Posted 17 May, 2012 To the techno spastics on here, all you have to do is get the updates to the new IOS5 which costs nothing!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
This Charming Man Posted 18 May, 2012 Share Posted 18 May, 2012 To the techno spastics on here, all you have to do is get the updates to the new IOS5 which costs nothing!!! Does that reduce the size and weight? Does it improve the screen quality? Does it improve the speed of the processor? Does it increase the battery life? The answer to all of that is NO. So no matter what you do, it's still far inferior to the other 2 models on the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulSaint Posted 19 May, 2012 Author Share Posted 19 May, 2012 Depends what you want to do with your iPad, the web experience with Safari is pretty much the same on all 3 models, so is email & many of the apps look & act the same. If you want to do photography/filming/make video calls then get a newer model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
