subject: Comparing The Ipad 2 With Google Nexus 7 [print this page] Whether it is Apple, Google, Samsung, or even HTC, God knows to where the competition among the companies will lead the market. However I can say this, at the end, it will be for the benefit of the end users that they will get the best products in town.
The iPad 2 when came around with its many iPad 2 cases, famous for protection and safety, the market thought this was the ultimate tablet. However, as we all know iPads and even the iPhones have had the Samsung Retina display technology, now we have our doubts. This also confirmed that Google also was working up something its sleeve. Kindle on the other hand, thrashed the whole tablet market and now we know the top competitors are just a few.
Let me compare the top leader of the tablet market: the Google Nexus 7 with the iPad 2/3 technology.
The iPad VS Nexus
1) The iPad 2 is 8.8 mm, and is thinner than the Nexus. The Nexus is 10.45 mm thick.
2) The total apps that you can get for Apple iPad are around 425k. For Google Nexus, the android app market has around 400k.
3) The battery power for the iPad is much better than that for the Nexus. It is 6930mAH VS 4325mAH.
4) The iPad 2 has a screen size of 9.7 inches, while Nexus is only 7(iPad mini is coming in 7 inches now What a match!)
5) Google Nexus has 8 GB storage while the iPad has 16, 32 and now 64GB of storage. However just like Apple, Google provides online cloud storage for data as much as unlimited.
6) However, let me not just stop here. Google Nexus has so many other features that imply it wins over the iPad. The Nexus is considerable shorter in size, and is much more feasible to hold and work on as its weight is less too. 340 g VS 601 g for Apple is too much to take.
7) The RAM is 1 GB, VS iPads 0.5 GB.
8) The CPU clock is also faster on Nexus: 4 X 1.5 GHz VS 2 X1 GHz.
9) The pixel density for Nexus is around 215 PPI VS iPads 132 PPI.
10) The screen resolution is 800 X 1280 pixels, and as for iPad 2 it is just 768 X 1024 pixels. Apple does not support Flash apps and software like Nexus.
