Hello everybody! Today a model came to us for a review Apple iPad 32GB Wi-Fi, and we'll tell you a little about it. First, we will consider all the characteristics, and only then we will compare a little with other models.
Specifications
It is considered an ordinary model and, by the way, is the cheapest - 24,500 rubles. Has a screen resolution of 2048 × 1536 pixels, even more than on my monitor. Inside stands powerful processor PowerVR GT7600 Plus. Not all known WiFi standards work: 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. This refers to those that are more often used at home.
There is a 3.5 mm mini-jack headphone jack. If you take a similar model with support for LTE, 3G, 4G mobile internet and communications - then the model will cost 8,000 - 10,000 rubles more. So here you need to clarify in advance the complete set that you need. Inside there is a powerful accumulator battery 8827 mAh, which can work at full load for up to 10 hours in a row.
Analysis and personal review
And so the cheapest configuration comes with 32 GB of memory and without the Cellular module, that is, it will not support a SIM card, and it will be possible to access the Internet only with Wi-Fi. You can also buy more memory - 128 GB, but then the model will cost from 32,000 rubles. When buying an iPad with mobile Internet support, the price rises from 25,500 to 35,000 rubles. I honestly don't even understand why the price rises so much - when the module is added.
Inside there is a good and quality camera which allows you to take great and beautiful photos. But if you still chose a model with 32 GB of memory, then most likely you will constantly miss it, since the camera shoots in wide resolution. Therefore, I would still advise taking 128 GB for a tablet.
Now about performance testing. In the test of the Antutu program, the model scored 206745 "parrots", which is quite good. The test of the central processor has the highest scores - 89500. Therefore, it can be safely taken and it will be in service for many years.
Now many will ask - why are there no Air and Mini models in the review? - the fact is that these tablets have a memory size starting from 64 GB. About Pro version and it's pointless to say, since the initial memory there starts at 128 GB and they cost almost twice as much.
On my own I will add that I really like the device: it is smart, fast and works stably. There are no freezes, and the iOS operating system is still the most optimized and fastest. That is, the iPad can be safely taken for 5-7 years, since the processor's power will be enough for many more years.
REQUEST! Dear readers, write your opinion on this model. It will be helpful to get feedback from real users. Write down some positive and negative aspects of this iPad models- in the comments below.

An excellent display, the picture quality is just amazing ...) It's convenient to surf the Internet (well, it's cool that there is no flash anyway) ...) It reproduces music very well, albeit mono, but I'm not a particular connoisseur, so for me quite suitable) Well, perhaps, we also need to mention the battery - it really holds a charge for a long time)

A large and sensitive screen with multitouch (and moderately sensitive), powerful Wi-Fi, a convenient browser, auto-rotate (you can even keep it upside down), strong (the screen too), a convenient Mail program, it's a pity that it doesn't work well with Yandex, pretty fast rechargeable, slim, just enjoyable to use. With iOS 5, it's just a BOMB! Although the device is not entirely new, everything just flies (as always :-))

1) iTunes (iPod) is an incomplete iPod that has retained all the disadvantages of aytyuns. Do not put a rating, do not view information, do not change, or delete! solid fences!
2) Safari / flash: Uploading to the Internet, downloading from the Internet is always a problem. After FireFox on a computer, it also appears to be an underbrowser! The lack of flash is a big disadvantage: half of all videos and almost all music from the Internet are not available
3) Non-support for video / audio formats: As for VIDEO, it is partly solved by buying OPlayer for $ 5, which reads absolutely all formats, but do not think that it reproduces all of them perfectly, this is not so. Often there are problems with the sound out of sync by about half a second-second. AUDIO: reads mp3, wma, m4a formats .. so if you need anything else - please! - convert to health)! Of course not

There is a feeling of lack random access memory when surfing the internet (iCab browser).
Lacks ability to work with Flash :(

No Flash !!! Browsing the Internet becomes, to put it mildly, sad ... Everywhere on your favorite sites a stupid face and a request to update the player. And you can't update it on a tablet. You cannot download anything from the net, neither music nor video. Do not connect a USB flash drive. It is not possible to transfer large files via mail. It is impossible to receive and transfer files via bluetooth, the device simply does not see phones of other brands. Everything is downloaded ONLY through iTunes, and only what is in the store. This is inconveniently insane, you just have to lose the folders on the PC (or change the system on your computer), and your tablet becomes pristine. You cannot watch the video in the usual format, you need to look for a converter, do a bunch of manipulations, and only after that, through tunes, throw it onto the tablet. Why do I need all this ???? Quite frankly, I'm disappointed

The price in Russia is very high.
ITunes is not the most convenient program for synchronization, it requires synchronization with only one computer.
We have already written about the lack of USB and cameras.
I had to buy the 3G version. Refuses to use the phone as a modem.

Suddenly, the multimedia device plays audio - mono. This is the last century.<_<
Apple iPad does not have a single camera (for Skype or the like) and this is one of its main drawbacks compared to competitors. The operating system is only 256 MB. It hangs on heavy sites.
