7 reasons you shouldn’t go to iPad

The Apple iPad, one of the best selling tablet device has got amazing features beside several flaws. In this post we will discuss about few of them, and decide whether its worth spending $500.

1. No Camera support

iPad doesn’t feature a camera, which is of course expected as an upgrade later on, same as the new iPod touch. its very disappointing fact that such a branded device doesn't give support for photography. you can view photos taken from different devices or a computer, same as the iPhone. While the other tablets are in a race for capturing attention through their tablets such as the new Samsung galaxy tab.

2. No Adobe Flash Support

As you know, there are millions of websites around the world built on Flash, but when you want to have any of these website you would get a flash upgrade needed message. obviously disappointing fact, but iPad fully provide support of HTML5 which has a support for video with a <video> tag. also there are many users which plays online flash based games, but they cant do this on their iPad.

3. No USB port or HDMI out

By default, iPad does not provide support for built-in USB and you have to buy a separate USB adapter for plugging in external USB keyboard or any other device. its surprising that while other apple devices has this option, iPad which is considered as a revolutionary tablet doesn’t have this feature.

4.No Full support for GPS

The Wi-Fi version of iPad doesn’t give you the support for GPS, while the 3G versions have assistance for GPS, which makes use of the cellular connection to locate your destination. but still you could consider this as an incomplete support for GPS.

5. No User Replaceable Battery

As Apple promises to give you complete 10 hours of battery backup, along with full month of stand-by time, the battery structure in a iPad is so designed that it is sealed and one cannot easily swap the batter from the case. So, for the user its a tedious process in the iPad.

6. AT&T only for 3G

Apple announced that iPad will be released into the market unlocked for all carriers, reports suggest that Apple signed an exclusive deal with AT&T for the 3G service. also the iPad’s 3G modem supports UMTS/HSDPA 850/1900/2100MHz and GSM/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 MHz bands which implies that T-Mobile’s 3G band has already been ruled out from the list as it runs on 1700MHz.

7. Unprotected Display

The iPad screens tos at 1024x768 falling under the aspect ration of 4:3 which is definitely very far behind the most preferred high definition aspect ration of 16:9. the screen features a wide 9.7” screen without a screen guard or any kind of cover to protect it, you may consider this reason as waste if you like you iPad to be open as a Phone.

   With these reason you can judge whether or not its worth a good deal for $499 price tag.
