we're going to introduce today iPad 2 the second generation iPad so what is iPad 2 what have we learned what can we improve well it is an all-new design it is not a tweak design it's not got marginal improvements it's a completely new design and the first thing is it's dramatically faster we have a new chip we call a 5-hour chip wizards have come up with this and it's great its dual-core processors alright two processors inside and so we get up to twice as fast on CPU performance but we've really gone all out on the graphics performance up to nine times faster graphics the graphics on this thing are wonderful same low power as a4 we don't want to give up any of that legendary battery life and even though others are starting the ship I think this is going to be the first dual-core tablet to ship in volume so a5 is a really a quite an achievement and is going to give us something that's up to twice as fast on CPU performance up to nine times faster on graphics and the first iPad was no slouch so a lot faster with a five second we've built in some cameras for video we've got a rear camera out the back and we've got a front facing camera out the front we'll talk more about that in a few minutes we've also built in the gyroscope that we have in the iPhone and the iPod touch now having built in all of this stuff one of the most startling things about the iPad 2 is it is dramatically thinner not a little bit thinner aford thinner 33% thinner that's what it looks like so if you look at the numbers when you look at the numbers go on from thirteen point four millimeters down to eight point eight millimeters thick it's dramatic and for those of you that have iPhone 4s the new iPad 2 is actually thinner than your iPhone 4 so we're incredibly happy with this and when you get your hands on one it feels totally different and all these other tablets are coming out most of them even thicker than the original iPad nothing even approaching this in addition to thicker it's lighter as well going from 1.5 pounds down to 1.3 and you might not think that's a lot but when you get down to 1.5 pounds a tenth of a pound is a lot and it feels quite a bit lighter and it's got an all new design it's just beautiful so this is what it looks like it's really thin and it comes in two colors black and white we're going to be shipping white from day one and to give you some scale this is what it looks like again you can just pick this thing up it almost floats black and white black or whites here now in addition to having both colors we also have models that work with both AT&T and Verizon 3G networking from day one and you would think that we would have to give up some of the iPads legendary battery life but our engineering team found a way and we have the same legendary ten-hour battery life as the original iPad with all this extra stuff in it and yet dramatically thinner and again that's over a month of standby so ten hours of battery life again a lot of these other guys are coming out with substantially less and this has been tried and tested by every reviewer iPads get 10 hours of battery life so we're really happy to keep that and never let that go now in addition to preserving the battery life when we add all this stuff we've also preserved the price and so we're going to keep the same exact prices starting at just $4.99 same exact prices is the current iPad yet with all these new features a dramatically improved product
