If you have read my article about the reviews of the iPad 2 tablet so far, then you already know that the great disappointment of all those who have tested the tablet is represented by the poor quality of the cameras included by Apple. The iPad 2 has cameras almost identical to those of the iPod Touch 4G and it says almost identical because the quality of the pictures/video clips recorded with the iPad 2 are of a slightly lower quality. Probably many people will be equally disappointed with the cameras after purchasing the tablet, but do the cameras matter so much? I'm sure Apple included the front camera specifically for FaceTime and the back camera just to give people a camera considering all the other tablets have something like that. In real life, it is very unlikely that you will use the rear camera so often, considering that you have a rather large tablet in your hands and handling it is not that easy. I for one consider that these cameras are good enough for a tablet, I don't see the need to implement an 8 megapixel camera that you will hardly use at all.

In addition to the information about the cameras, I found out that the iPad 2 has 512 MB of RAM, just like the iPhone 4 and I noticed that many people are dissatisfied with this aspect. Think that it doesn't really matter how much RAM the tablet has, but how the system knows how to use that amount of RAM. iOS is very well optimized and so far the iPhone 4 has done very well with running applications and opening web pages with 512 MB RAM, so the iPad 2 will not have poor performance, especially since it has a dual-core processor of 1 Ghz.
