外國傳媒在今天發佈一系列的iPad 2測試，雖然大致上都好評，但不少都認為iPad 2只是Tablet市場上其中一部，不是這麼的突出。以Engadget的Joshua為例，他指出iPad 2絕對不是完美的產品，以相機為例，其質素就不太好。TechCrunch的報道亦指出，如果已經擁有iPad的，未必一定需要升級。因為若不計機身，舊一代iPad與iPad 2的用法上，始終都是iOS，其分別不算很大。
不過，大部份的報道都指出，其處理速度上都很出色，而且機身真的很薄。若有興趣詳閱所有的測試報告，可以參考以下來源。

大部份review都係8成讚, 2成彈. 你就只講差果d. 似係你反iOS多d…
已經全部稿都係抄的, 仲要咁bias. 不知所為!
TechCrunch Review — The iPad 2: Yeah, You’re Gonna Want One – by MG Siegler

頭幾段內容：“In January 2010, shortly after its unveiling, I first got my hands on an iPad. My initial reaction? “The iPad is like holding the future.” And that’s funny because here we are, just a little over a year into that future, and something new has come along that makes holding the iPad 1 feel like holding the past: the iPad 2.
A week ago, after its unveiling, I got some hands on time with the new hardware and my initial assessment was that it pushed a device that already had no true competition, even farther ahead. But now I’ve had the chance to actually use the thing non-stop for a week. Is my feeling the same?
Actually, it’s even stronger.
The original iPad was considered a huge hit — but that was with no real competition. The iPad 2 has some competition — right now, the Xoom, and many more are coming. But I have no doubt that the iPad 2 will be an even bigger hit than the original.”
觀乎上述D keyword (e.g. no true competition, even stronger, even bigger hit 等等)，想請問 dave兄：有邊度講／暗示／明示 “不是這麼的突出”？
人地Joshua話其他tablet”無得揮”,都可以比你講到錦,睇黎你地個site嘅將來同啲”平板64”都差不多矣。

Engadget iPad 2 review ﹣ By Joshua Topolsky

“It might frustrate the competition to hear this, but it needs to be said: the iPad 2 isn’t just the best tablet on the market, it feels like the only tablet on the market. As much as we’d like to say that something like the Xoom has threatened Apple’s presence in this space, it’s difficult (if not impossible) to do that. Is the iPad 2 a perfect product? Absolutely not. The cameras are severely lacking, the screen — while extremely high quality — is touting last year’s spec, and its operating system still has significant annoyances, like the aggravating pop-up notifications. At a price point of $499, and lots of options after that (like more storage and models that work on both Verizon’s and AT&T’s 3G networks), there’s little to argue about in the way of price, and in terms of usability, apps like GarageBand prove that we haven’t even scratched the surface of what the iPad can do.”
Key phrases: isn’t just the best but the only tablet on the market, difficult, if not impossible, to threaten
“不是這麼的突出”？
其實iPad2真的不是完美的產品，但請問歷史上邊款IT產品是完美的？請舉例說明之。
筆者不懂英文的話就不要胡亂翻譯了!
不說文章問題, 而是針對主題的話. 雙核便是一個潛在的最大賣點了, 剛轉雙核的iOS根本未真正發揮實力啦. 如果硬要說與原來分別不大的話, 都是因為iPAD本身便已很流暢, 0.1秒與0.3秒的分別, 我覺得蘋果是時候支援FLASH了, 再來一個大炸彈, 其他TABLET便不用玩啦
一群患被害妄想症的人…哀哉
不知所謂嘅報道！
不是想討論iPad2有咩好/唔好，只係想話:人地用咗唔少心血寫O既review,請大家都用心仔細讀,然後作出最精確的轉述,也可以加上自己的評論/不同意見,萬萬不要扭曲/誤解別人的論點,這是對原作者最起碼的尊重~
Btw,樓上 Dan Li 你睇咗O個兩篇review 味? 雖然有D長但幾精彩架~
DAVE, 你點解要扭曲JOSHUA既REVIEW?
萍果d産品不嬲第一代用來試market ga la
一年後就改良出二代, 咁先買得過
睇清楚先好寫啦！

MacWorld
– “Pick up an iPad 2 after handling an original iPad, and you’ll notice the difference right away. This is a lighter, thinner device.”
– “The iPad 2 also has 512MB of RAM–twice that of the original iPad–and a 200MHz bus speed, likewise twice that of the original.”
– “Though the iPad 2 is an improvement on the original iPad in numerous ways, its still an evolutionary product, not a revolutionary one”
– “In short, the iPad 2 is the fastest iOS device ever made, by a long shot.”
– AllThingsD
– Cameras take mediocre still photos, decent video
– Battery life not as strong as first iPad, but impressive.
– “It never crashed in my tests, unlike every Android tablet I’ve tested.”
– “As of now, I can comfortably recommend it as the best tablet for average consumers.”
– Engadget
– “iPad 2 managed an astonishing 10 hours and 26 minutes of non-stop playback” — better than iPad 1 in their testing.
– Cameras are “pretty bad” for stills, reasonably useful for video
– GarageBand is a “groundbreaking piece of software for tablets”
– “The iPad 2 isn’t just the best tablet on the market, it feels like the only tablet on the market”
Benchmarks from Engadget
– NYTimes
– “My friends, I’m telling you: just that much improvement in thinness, weight and speed transforms the experience. ”
– 5-megapixel camera on back (no flash) (? Only review to claim this stat and is contradicted by other reviews)
– SlashGear
– “We were able to software decode a side loaded 1.4GB .avi file in OPlayer on the fly, while watching it, without and lag or stutter. The same clip in the same app on the original iPad loads slower and drops frames and audio during playback.”
iPad 初出時都是不看好的啦, 開賣後又不是賣個滿堂紅!
