Best Buy Apple iPad 2 Wi-Fi 32GB Tablet


Apple iPad Wi-Fi-only iPad 2 version is the cheapest of them all, and also the lightest at 1.33 pounds (601 grams). It improves on its predecessor in both desing and hardware, since the iconic tablet is now thinner than even the iPhone 4 at 0.34" (8.8mm). It is powered by a 1 GHz dual-core Apple A5 chipset, which provides 2x the CPU and 9x the GPU performance of its predecessor. All the while it keeps the same 10 hours of battery life. It is equipped with a 9.7-inch (1024x768, 132 ppi) multitouch "glossy" LED-backlit IPS display and runs a version of the same iOS operating system that powers the iPhone and iPod touch models. As a result it is compatible with thousands of iPad-specific apps as well as most apps for the iPhone/iPod touch, but not Mac OS X apps.

It is powered by a custom-designed 1 GHz dual-core Apple A5 "system on a chip", has 16 GB, 32 GB, or 64 GB of flash memory, front and rear mounted cameras, 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi support, an accelerometer, a three-axis gyroscope, an ambient light sensor, digital compass, a speaker and a built-in mic packed in a 0.34 inch thick, 1.33 pound glass and aluminum case with a black or white front and an aluminum back. The battery life of this iPad 2 is reportedly 10 hours "surfing the web on Wi-Fi, watching video, or listening to music."

Compared to the original iPad, major differences for the iPad 2 models include a thinner, lighter case design, faster processors, system-wide mirroring support, and the aforementioned cameras. They also support a new magnetic "Smart Cover" -- available at additional cost -- that protects the screen when not in use and automatically wakes up the iPad 2 when the cover is removed and puts it to sleep when the cover is attached.
