Lab Report: More iPad 2 benchmark results

22.03.2011

The iPhone 4 performed better than the original iPad, but only by a couple of frames per second in each test. It was no match for the iPad 2.

In the , I mentioned that the iPad 2 recharging seemed faster than that of the original iPad, but that I hadn't timed it. Some of you asked for specific results, and I'm glad you did.

It turns out that the iPad 2 was faster, but only by a hair. It took 4 hours, 10 minutes for the iPad 2 to charge from a completely drained battery to a full charge. The original iPad took 4 hours, 16 minutes (2.4 percent longer). The charge time may have seemed longer to me due to impatience on my part--I was waiting for it to finish so I could start a second battery test before leaving for my son's birthday party.
