At an MRP ranging from Rs. 29,500 for the 16 GB model, to 46,900 for the 64 GB model with 3G support, the iPad 2 is only slightly costlier than its predecessor, but more expensive than any other tablet on the market.

Smooth interface; Speedy performance; Healthy app ecosystem

Pricey; Unsatisfactory HD upscaling

Apple has done a great job of taking what was already a compelling product and making it even more enticing in its second generation version. If you skipped the original iPad, the iPad 2 is a great place to get in on the tablet action.

Better performance and graphics; thinner; more comfortable to hold; video mirroring

Poor camera quality; tapered edges make ports and buttons difficult to use

The iPad 2 builds on the success of the original iPad. It's slightly thinner and smaller, while also including two cameras - one on the front for video calls and the other one on the back that can take 720p HD videos at 300 fps.

Verizon 4G LTE network is incredibly fast; 32GB microSD card included; Integrated kickstand works in portrait and landscape

Battery life is among the worst weve ever seen; No 4G LTE power toggle option; Kickstand in landscape orientation blocks microUSB port

If you already own the original iPad there's little reason to splurge on the latest. While the cameras bring new functionality, the results as far as the rear camera is concerned, are basic.

More horsepower under the hood; slightly lighter; looks and feels great; battery life is still brilliant

Rear-facing camera offers basic results

I got this iPad a year ago .Till now no complaints. I have it my kitchen always, to check recepies,do banking,book tickets all in one click. We take it wherever we go out for checking mails and we take pictures with this which has a very good clarity..

The OS gets updated automatically ; It has a great battery life

This ipad is great for home and work use. My kids play on it all the time both at home and out and about. I use it for work and fun. For work I am able to use the wifi anywhere for a small fee. As above, this ipad gets taken everywhere and has held up great.

APPLE'S SECOND GENERATION TABLET has arrived in the UK in the form of the Ipad 2 , and we've got our hands on one at The INQUIRER to see how it shapes up compared to the first model and other tablets available.

Thin and light; reliable operating system; same battery life as previous Ipad but better performance

Still no support for Flash; no USB or HDMI; Poor cameras

Apple has done a fine job with the iPad 2, sure it doesn't have removable storage, or 1080p video cameras in the front and back that do 24p in 16x9 or 22x9 format, or 4G or Wi-MAX, etc but it does a great job for what it is.

: Speedier and more streamlined than its predecessor, the iPad 2 is a wonderfully sleek next-gen device – which makes the lack of Flash video, and that clunky iTunes software even more noticeable.

: Very sleek and stylish; lots of iPad apps; especially new media and magazines; video calling facilities

: The omission of Flash video is a big issue; iTunes is dated and it's hard to transfer data without iTunes
