iPad help? What Size? - SV650.org

JamesMio · 15-12-11, 03:56 PM

I'm looking into iPad2's for work stuff and swithering over the size to get (i.e. is it worth paying more or will a 16gb suffice?).

It'll be used almost exclusively for work stuff - apps/presentations etc.

Throw in a bit of email & web browsing and I suppose anything else I discover it can do that I hadn't thought of.

I can get them at a really good price via my mobile phone account, but they're struggling to get the 32gb ones. Question is - has anyone ever managed to fill a 16gb one (I've got an iPod for all my music)..?

It depends what media you're going to have on it really - I've got a 16GB samsung galaxy tab and it's constantly full of HD movies and TV series that I stream straight to my TV. It can be a bit of pain having to empty it every week and put new stuff on it...

As above, 16gb is not a lot of data at all by today's standards. Films will gobble it all up almost instantly 16 high def. films if that?

What's the price difference?

If you're positive it's going to be work only then it'll probably be fine...but the chaps I know with them use them more at home than work.

As above if you want it for storing films or media on then go for storage. If not then 16gb will be OK I would have thought.

IMHO.

I have the 64gb. I love it. So easy to use and it is really addictive. Bet you won't be able to put it down nce you start using it, for work or otherwise!

32GB to be on the safe side if not available I would wait or get the 64GB

32Gb £50

With a 3G contract like, but still - my thinking is for the sake of £50, I'd be as well waiting and getting hold of a 32gigger...

And with that I've just had note that they've sourced me one and it's on route to the store now. 32gb in black, a nice touch all round.
