How To Use An iPad 2 | A New User’s Guide
IPAD 2 – AT A GLANCE
Before you can unleash your iPad’s power, you’ll need to take a few minutes to get acquainted with its
hardware features—every button, switch, slot, port, and plug—and we’ve put together a comprehensive visual
guide to help you how to use iPad 2.
It’s always best to start from the beginning. And the beginning, in this case, is the outside of the iPad 2. Here is
a quick guide to your iPad’s switches, buttons, and ports.
(A) Front Camera. The iPad 2 has two cameras: a 0.3-megapixel VGA front-facing camera; and a 0.7-
megapixel camera located on the rear of the tablet. The front-facing camera is primarily designed for
FaceTime conversation, but can also shoot SD video and 640-by-480-pixel stills.
(B) Touchscreen Display. The iPad doesn’t have a tactile keyboard or a bunch of hardware buttons.
Instead, you use its 9.7-inch LED-backlit glossy widescreen glass display to surf the Web, compose e-
mail messages, navigate apps, and change settings. The screen has a resolution of 1024 by 768 pixels at
132 pixels per inch. It also has an oleophobic coating‚ so it’s easy to wipe off fingerprints and smudges.
