The Apple iPad 2 first launched in 2011, and, despite all odds, managed to stay on sale among Apple's iPad line-up until 2014, outlasting the iPad 3 and iPad 4, which were replaced by the new iPad Air. But is the iPad 2 still worth a look? Here's our iPad...

Without a doubt, the most impressive thing about the Apple iPad 2 is its build quality. Constructed out of a solid piece of aluminium, with a bright and vivid glass display, it's every bit the premium gadget. We also love the operating system on the Apple iPad 2.

The biggest problem with the Apple iPad 2 is its lack of ports. It's a shame that there's no USB port – making it impossible to easily hook up other devices without buying peripherals, and the need to use iTunes to copy your music across is also frustrating.
Despite its failings, we love the Apple iPad 2. The sheer quality and usability of Apples tablet makes it the choice of the field, with other products still lagging when it comes to apps, battery life or even build quality. Best offers for the Apple iP...
