Apple iPad 2 Wifi VS 3G Review

If you’re going to compare iPad Wifi vs 3g, do you think the added cost of an iPad 3G model is justified over an iPad Wifi? What’s the difference between them?

My research turned up 5 major differences so far. There are more if you care to keep on looking, but these 5 are enough to make a reasonable choice.

Extent of connectivity. The iPad 2 with 3g lets you connect to the Internet both from a WiFi connection or the 3G cellular network, while the iPad wifi models only let you browse the web from a WiFi connection. So if you buy iPad 3g, you’ll be able to surf the Internet anywhere there’s cell phone coverage. With wifi iPad models, you can only connect to the Internet in places where there is a WiFi connection. If you want your iPad wifi to surf the Internet using 3G, you will need to bring another device – smart phone model that has the capability to act like a WiFi.

The iPad 3g price includes built-in GPS service. You get very accurate location fixes in addition to the convenience of needing only one gadget for extensive Internet browsing activities.

Apple iPad 3G

The iPad 3g also means you pay more connectivity costs. You pay an additional U.S. $130 to buy iPad 3g than just the Wifi model. Plus, you will need to avail of a wireless data plan if you want to use the 3G capability. That means anywhere from $15 to $30 additional monthly payments to your carrier, depending on the data plan you get. This usually ranges from 250MB to 2G of data monthly.

Using 3G connection cuts into your battery life. Your usage is shortened anywhere from 2 to 3 hours from the average battery life of 10 hours. That’s not really a big deal unless you don’t have time to recharge where ever it is you’re going to.

Minor differences. The iPad 16g 3g has a side door where you can insert your Micro SIM card. There’s also a section at the back that lets you get better 3G connectivity. You’ll likely want to get a cover for your iPad with 3g to provide protection for these additional sections.

Pros
Thinner than the original. New A5 chip offers faster graphics processing, general performance. Dual cameras for video chat, HD video recording, and stills. Improved design incorporates internal magnets for Smart Cover accessory. 3G versions available on AT&T and Verizon Wireless. Improved AirPlay features. Supports HDMI output (via optional adapter).

Cons
Image quality with rear-facing camera is not great. Front-facing camera is not HD. Still no Flash video support. No earbuds included.

Bottom Line
The clear standout in the ever-widening sea of tablets, the Apple iPad 2 brings a slimmer design, faster processing, dual cameras, and FaceTime video chat to a tablet that already had a leg up on the competition.

As we all know that new contenders move into the field, Apple isn’t likely to keep its 90% share of the booming tablet market. But the iPad and the iPad 2 moves the goal posts, by being slimmer and lighter, boosting speed and power, and holding its price advantages, available apps and long battery life. As of now, I therefore can comfortably recommend it as the best tablet for average consumers.
