Mobile networks
A mobile network is a radio system that allows multiple mobile devices to communicate with each other.
GSM GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) is designed to replace the analogue mobile network (1G). For this reason, GSM is often called a 2G mobile network. It is improved by the addition of GPRS (General Packet Radio Services), and later EDGE (Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution) technologies. | GSM 850 MHz GSM 900 MHz GSM 1800 MHz GSM 1900 MHz |
CDMA CDMA (Code-Division Multiple Access) is a channel access method used in communications in mobile networks. Compared to other 2G and 2.5G standards like GSM and TDMA, it provides higher data transfer speeds and the ability to connect more consumers at the same time. | CDMA 800 MHz CDMA 1900 MHz |
CDMA2000 CDMA2000 is a group of 3G mobile network standards based on CDMA. Their advantages include a more powerful signal, fewer interruptions and network breaks, support for an analog signal, wide spectral coverage, etc. | 1xEV-DO Rev. A |
UMTS UMTS is an abbreviation for Universal Mobile Telecommunications System. It is based on the GSM standard and belongs to 3G mobile networks. Developed by 3GPP and its biggest advantage is providing greater speed and spectral efficiency thanks to W-CDMA technology. | UMTS 850 MHz UMTS 900 MHz UMTS 1900 MHz UMTS 2100 MHz |
LTE LTE (Long Term Evolution) is defined as a fourth generation (4G) technology. It is developed by 3GPP based on GSM/EDGE and UMTS/HSPA to increase the capacity and speed of wireless mobile networks. The subsequent technology development is called LTE Advanced. | LTE 700 MHz Class 13 LTE 700 MHz Class 17 LTE 2100 MHz |
Mobile communication technologies and data transfer speeds
Communication between devices on mobile networks is carried out using technologies that provide different data transfer rates.
Operating system
An operating system is a system software that manages and coordinates the operation of hardware components in a device.
SoC (System on Chip)
A system on a chip (SoC) includes all the most important hardware components of a mobile device on a single chip.
SoC (System on Chip) A system on a chip (SoC) integrates various hardware components, such as a processor, graphics processor, memory, peripherals, interfaces, etc., as well as the software necessary for their operation. | Apple A5X APL5498 |
Process Information about the technological process by which the chip is manufactured. Nanometers measure half the distance between elements in the processor. | 45 nm (nanometers) |
Processor (CPU) The primary function of a mobile device's processor (CPU) is to interpret and execute instructions contained in software applications. | ARM Cortex-A9 |
Processor size The size (in bits) of a processor is determined by the size (in bits) of the registers, address buses, and data buses. 64-bit processors have higher performance compared to 32-bit processors, which in turn are more powerful than 16-bit processors. | 32 bit |
Instruction Set Architecture Instructions are commands with which the software sets/controls the operation of the processor. Information about the instruction set (ISA) that the processor can execute. | ARMv7 |
Level 1 cache (L1) Cache memory is used by the processor to reduce access time to more frequently used data and instructions. L1 (level 1) cache is small in size and is much faster than both system memory and other cache levels. If the processor does not find the requested data in L1, it continues to look for it in the L2 cache. On some processors, this search is performed simultaneously in L1 and L2. | 32 kB + 32 kB (kilobytes) |
Level 2 cache (L2) L2 (level 2) cache is slower than L1 cache, but in return it has a higher capacity, allowing it to cache more data. It, like L1, is much faster than system memory (RAM). If the processor does not find the requested data in L2, it continues to look for it in the L3 cache (if available) or in RAM memory. | 1024 kB (kilobytes) 1 MB (megabytes) |
Number of processor cores The processor core executes software instructions. There are processors with one, two or more cores. Having more cores increases performance by allowing multiple instructions to be executed in parallel. | 2 |
CPU clock speed The clock speed of a processor describes its speed in terms of cycles per second. It is measured in megahertz (MHz) or gigahertz (GHz). | 1000 MHz (megahertz) |
Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) The Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) handles calculations for various 2D/3D graphics applications. In mobile devices, it is most often used by games, consumer interfaces, video applications, etc. | PowerVR SGX543 MP4 |
Number of GPU cores Like a CPU, a GPU is made up of several working parts called cores. They handle graphics calculations for various applications. | 4 |
Amount of random access memory (RAM) Random access memory (RAM) is used by the operating system and all installed applications. Data stored in RAM is lost after the device is turned off or restarted. | 1 GB (gigabytes) |

1. Large, clear screen. 2. Mobility 3. With the release of firmware 4.2.1, multitasking appeared. Programs no longer close when you press the home button, but are minimized. To call the process manager, double-click the same button. Very convenient. 4. Lots of applications in the AppStore. Allows you to turn the device into an almost complete replacement for a laptop. 5. I use a capacitive stylus pen with a rubber ball at the end. I recommend it to everyone, many advantages, including a clean screen. 6. Capacious battery. It lasts me 2 days of intensive use, including entries in the penultimate program.

Speed of operation. Does not heat up, you can lie on the couch for hours without fear of overheating and breakdown (unlike laptops). The books are read perfectly, the eyes do not get tired, they open quickly and, unlike e-readers, they look in color and with illustrations, so that it becomes excruciatingly painful for a lot of money wasted on them. The Internet is fast, you just need to get used to Safari. There are a lot of applications of all kinds, from games to necessary and unnecessary utilities. I haven’t turned on the PC at home for a week, I check my email in seconds, I don’t wait for the computer to boot. I don’t want to solve serious problems on it, I have a PC and work for that, and with the iPad I just relax. Advice, take at least 32 GB for video, without 3G, it is not needed. There is no speed at all on 3G, it’s just a disappointment, if you need mobility, buy a Yota egg.

Everything flies. The user visual interface is extremely user-friendly and finger-oriented. It fits well in the hand (not very heavy), and with a case it looks extremely elegant. The battery capacity allows you not to think about it at all during the day. All of Apple's advertising slogans are justified in this sense. Very high quality build. The front panel is glossy glass and feels very durable. The case is metal. Installation of programs from a single repository with automated update and search support.

Replaces many items at home. When installing free applications, it acts as an Internet TV and radio with a huge number of stations, an old striking clock, a very good ability to work on the Internet, this toy is the best (in terms of the graphical representation of the book) e-reader, a good video and audio player. For normal operation of the product, you need a good router and a fairly high-speed Internet connection. To fully understand the charms of this unique product, unfortunately, you need to tinker with it for many hours, be able to convert movies and, of course, work with the AppStore. In terms of the abundance of functions performed and everyday joys, alas, he has no equal.

1. The screen gets dirty if you don’t use a stylus.
2. Not enough memory for running applications. The new stitching exposed this matter. When 3-4 applications are open + a browser with at least 5 pages, the programs begin to glitch. For example quick office. I have to close other applications for the sake of comfortable viewing of a 3MB presentation.

The main disadvantages include the price of the device and the operating principles of the Apple OS. The price for such functionality is exorbitant. The user is equated to a stupid user, from whom nothing more is required than to have a credit card.
The restriction on the file sharing policy both inside and outside the device is very annoying. All manipulations with data inside the device are possible only with the use of specialized software (often paid), and even then in its own memory area. Data exchange with the outside world is only possible using the same third-party software, email, or iTunes. Particularly infuriating is the device’s attachment to Apple’s proprietary data exchange program iTunes. Everything from the computer to the tablet is uploaded only through it.

The most annoying thing about iTunes is the inability to upload files directly!
Update: with the release of iOS 5, iTunes stopped being so annoying, because... Now it synchronizes via WiFi and does not require constantly plugging in the cord. So minus 1 drawback :)
In addition, I discovered such a thing as DropBox - now all the necessary documents are always with me...

A fairly easily soiled screen, even with a protective film, always has to be wiped with a good quality chamois leather.
In this article we will discuss one of the most important characteristics of the iPad - screen diagonal. This is the most impressive detail of the tablet that immediately catches your eye. During its existence, the Apple company has released many models of this device. And they all come with different display sizes. Let's see how gadgets have changed according to this criterion over the years. Let's start the review with the very first lines - iPad 1, 2 and so on.
A tablet is a type of device whose display diagonal size is of great importance. The first generation, released 7 years ago, already came in a standard version, which took root for many years. The parameter in question did not change for gadgets until the 4th generation, although something new was added in terms of other screen characteristics:
- iPad 1 had a diagonal of 9.7 inches (in iPad 2 the diagonal was left the same as in iPad 3 and iPad 4), with a resolution of 1024x768, 132 ppi.
- iPad 2 – the same parameters in inches, exactly the same resolution and pixel density.
- iPad 3 - 100% higher resolution than the first and second line of devices, the same with pixel density.
- iPad 4 is all the same as its predecessor.
But regardless of the model, the picture on the display of Apple tablets has always been excellent. But technology is developing continuously and gadgets of the 3 and 4 line received a Retina display .
The four also increased the screen resolution and pixel density parameter. This made it possible to make the image look like a picture from a glossy magazine. Pixels are not visible at all, which adds realism. The developer made the 100% right choice by introducing this technology. Among 10-inch tablets, this device is considered the best. The only drawback is the lack of anti-reflective coating. This disadvantage was noted by many users on the forums.
The IPS matrix element, included in models of lines 1 – 4, produces a color gamut of maximum naturalism and provides maximum viewing angles. Its quality is especially visible when compared with previous display options. The capacitive sensor has also been improved. In addition, a warmer color scheme and improved image detail have been added.
Display sizes of iPad Air, iPad Air 2
The further development of tablets was very interesting. The body has been radically improved, new shades have appeared. The frames were significantly reduced, but the display sizes remained the same (as in the fourth and other iPads).
The more compact dimensions of the iPad Air line of tablets have brought them to a higher level, making them stylish and modern.
Characteristics of displays of Air model devices:
- iPad Air – 9.7 inches, Retina, resolution 2048×1536, 264 ppi.
- iPad Air 2 has exactly the same parameters as the first “air” tablet.
As you can see, everything remains the same. Only Retina technology is of interest. Thanks to it, the response period to touching the display and energy consumption have been significantly reduced.
iPad mini, iPad mini 2-4 screen parameters
The time has come to highlight tablets that are close to modern standards of top-end devices. The developer paused a bit with the display sizes and this innovation is for the better.
The mini versions have become widespread and are loved by many users. After all, carrying such a gadget with you is very comfortable, and its functionality is not inferior to ordinary models:
- iPad mini - 7.9 inches, with a resolution of 1024x768, pixel density 163 ppi.
- iPad mini 2 - the same diagonal, but the resolution and pixel density have been increased by 100%.
- iPad mini 3 - exactly the same performance as the second mini variation.
- iPad mini 4 - exactly the same as versions 2 and 3.
As can be seen from the characteristics presented above, the diagonals of the mini devices are not at all the same as in the 4 iPad and other standard versions. They are much smaller. The resolution setting is similar, but the number of dots is 1 inch larger.
Pro line tablets
In terms of “appearance”, the two variations of the gadget in this line are almost identical. Therefore, users here choose based on functionality, because not everyone needs a TV to carry with them all the time:
- Pro variation 1 - 9.7 inches, Retina, resolution 2732x2048, 264 ppi.
- Pro variation 2 – 12.9 inches, other parameters are exactly the same.
Today, these two models are the best, both in terms of picture quality and performance. The latest anti-reflective coating makes working in the sun comfortable.
Above was a historical background regarding the development of tablets from the Apple company in terms of display size. It's interesting how iPads will evolve in the future, but that's anyone's guess. But judging by the performance. For at least another 2-3 years, Pro will be at its best and will satisfy the needs of the most demanding users.
And since the subject of our conversation today is the second line of iPads, we will now consider in detail the other characteristics of this line of tablets.
iPad 2 design
There has been no revolution since the release of the second generation of devices. Consumers were presented with the same product in a minimalist style, very neat, made of glass and aluminum materials. You may not like Apple devices, but you cannot deny that they are of decent quality. In terms of design, they are several steps ahead of similar gadgets from competitors. Let’s say you can’t put them on the same level as plastic products from Samsung Tab or Motorola XOOM, which consist of individual elements assembled together. If you have any doubts about this, just turn the Apple tablet in your hands and immediately feel the difference.
The rear part remained the same “indestructible”. It is made of scratch-resistant metal. The panel has now become almost flat - it narrows only towards the end part. The first line of tablets did not have this.
The Deuce is significantly thinner than its predecessor (and even the iPhone 4). Visually it seems that you can even scratch it, like a piece of paper. This effect is created thanks to the same narrowing towards the ends. In it, the developer used the same design idea as in the MacBook Air, in which the minimum thickness parameters are only 3 millimeters.
The tablet also lost a little weight. True, only 6 grams compared to its predecessors, but still this is a positive result. However, at that time, according to this criterion, the iPad 2 was ahead of its competitor from the Korean company - Galaxy, which weighed 7 grams less. At the same time, its body was made of plastic, which does not add to its price.
iPad 2 equipment
Everything here is standard and predictable, nothing new. In the box with the second tablet, in addition to the device itself, the user found:
- charging element;
- USB cord;
- documentation;
- brochures and stickers with Apple logos.
The Apple company, as always, has not betrayed the principles of minimalism. The rather large box did not contain anything notable accessories. By the way, the adapter is for an American outlet. So, whether you like it or not, you will have to purchase an adapter.
Battery for the second tablet
The period of operation without additional recharging of devices of the second line is the same 10-12 hours. The same was true for the starter product of this type. And this is all during active use using wireless elements, while watching movies and listening to music tracks.
All this is impressive, considering that we are talking about a device with a nine-cell battery. According to these criteria, Apple's tablet has no competitors to this day. Similar gadgets from other companies operating on Android work for about 6 hours without recharging. It is especially pleasing that a long period of autonomous operation was preserved with a significant reduction in the thickness of the case.
And a little more about the display...
This element was already the pride of the company in the very first tablet. At that time it was of the best quality - competitors had nothing like it. In the second generation tablet everything remains the same. Many fans of Apple products expected to see Retina technology in it, that is, a resolution increased by 400%. But for such parameters the device did not have enough processor power and graphics element. In other words, a miracle did not happen. And if it happened, the starting price of the gadget would soar by at least 50%.
But this display has also become one of the best in terms of brightness, resolution and responsiveness to touch. It’s not for nothing that any devices with a touch mechanism are usually compared with iPhones and iPads, because the latter have no equal.
However, there are also more significant distinctive points compared to the previous version and competitors. For example, thanks to the oleophobic layer, the display is not easily soiled. It is very difficult to stain it with touches. And if any dirt suddenly appears, it is easy to remove. Users have to clean the devices of the first line and tablets of competitors constantly.
Efficiency has increased in many areas - when surfing the Internet, when working with graphic elements. Separately, it is worth mentioning the increase in memory on board the second tablet to 512 megabytes. Of course, today such an indicator will seem ridiculous, but at that time it caused delight.
The operating system in this line of tablets, compared to the previous one, was also more advanced. She was an order of magnitude taller. Accordingly, the functionality has expanded, and the work has become faster.
The tablet performs all commands perfectly. This applies to the interface, a fast browser, no freezing or slowdown of programs, and lively playing video.
The tablet received an improved Apple A5X processor, specially created for the Retina display. The processor contains 2 main ARM Cortex A9 cores and 4 graphics cores (PowerVR SGX543MP4) and, according to Schiller, is four times faster in graphics computing speed than the 4-core Nvidia Tegra 3 chip. The tablet also received a new 5-megapixel camera capable of shooting video in Full HD 1080p. The new iPad now has the expected support for 4G LTE technology.
