iPad 2 – The iPad 2 is the second-generation iPad tablet computer from Apple.

The iPad 2 is primarily different from its predecessor in terms of its size and weight (it's thinner and lighter), its faster processor, and inclusion of two cameras, while the first-generation model had none.

As before, the iPad 2 runs the iOS and, as a result, can run programs from the App Store.

Some models also include an optional always-on cellular Internet connection through AT&T or Verizon.
