AnandTech: Earlier this morning we published our first impressions on Apple’s iPad 2, including analysis on camera quality and a dive into the architecture behind Apple’s A5 SoC. Our SoC investigation mostly focused on CPU performance, which we found to be a healthy 50% faster than the A4 in the original iPad – at least in web browsing. We were able to exceed Apple’s claim of up to 2x performance increase in some synthetic tests, but even a 50% increase in javascript and web page loading performance isn’t anything to be upset about. We briefly touched on the GPU: Imagination Technologies’ PowerVR SGX 543MP2. Here Apple is promising up to a 9x increase in performance, but it’s something we wanted to investigate…
