ActiveWin.com: Apple iPad 2 - Review | |
|
||
| Time: 00:00 EST/05:00 GMT | News Source: ActiveWin.com | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||
John has posted his review of Apple's iPad 2. Here is an excerpt: This is the part that maturity is lacking. There are hundreds of thousands of apps, proving the old saying wrong ‘A million monkeys at a million keyboards in a million years would create War and Peace’. The current app market proves that completely wrong. The iPad has a nice large screen compared to the iPhone 4, with plenty of display area, but the majority of applications waste the space. Why give me a 2x button, I mean honestly, iPhone apps and iPad apps that make the device feel cheap, and make it look more like a joke remote or over-sized iPhone rather than a useful and powerful tablet pc. The 2x button at the bottom right in some cases even makes the application almost unusable, as the text is hard to read. Even some iPad apps like Chase for iPad is nothing more than a glorified iPhone app that uses the larger display. | ||

I've never seen an iPad app with a 2x button. That's not an iPad app.
Every iPad app I have uses the screen properly. |

| The article is referring to iPod/iPhone apps that have not been upgraded to leverage the larger screen. Instead, the just provide a 2x button to fill the screen. |
