Apple iPad 2Along with its GSM and CDMA-equipped contemporaries, the iPad 2 (Wi-Fi Only) was proclaimed to be the start of a "post PC" era (although it still originally was required to be "tethered" to a Mac or Windows PC for synchronization and updates). Just like the original iPad, the Wi-Fi only iPad 2 (A1395) is a tablet computer designed for "browsing the web, reading and sending e-mail, enjoying photos, watching videos, listening to music, playing games, reading e-books, and much more".

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.

On or around March 25, 2012, Apple also quietly began shipping a new version of this model with a smaller 32 nm processor and a different identifier, although the company is believed to still ship this model as well. EveryiPad.com has documented the variant as its own model -- the iPad 2 (Wi-Fi Only, iPad2,4).
