iPad Tear Down 

I can't stand such a big guy doing something so gently :x

Great vid Omar and if anyone from Milliamp sees this comment thanks for letting Omar shoot this vid! Very interesting and informative, I love taking electronics apart and putting them back together. FTW

definitely the geekiest ipad video yet! that was awesome. its so cool how he put it back together.

@plektrum93 It is there 1. to allow the user to hold the iPad comfortably without engaging the touch screen, and 2. to give space for air to circulate, keeping it cool. :) hope this helps!

Wow good video. The good new is that there is a ton of space inside so there is room for new things. I take it some of that space is going to be filled with a 3G radio but I still think there is going to be room for a camera and other stuff in the second generation model.

@mulymule12 It keeps him grounded so he doesn't create an accidental static charge which could ruin the board

Excellent video. You always seem to find interest takes on products I could never do. Thumbs up!

Wow i got a little shocked when you lift the lid of, it is so mutch space left to fill out with what could have been a very good camera at the back

@bogart1252 They use a special tool that they developed just for opening the iPad and they didn't want it to be displayed.

@TimDeNomie Its a rotation lock, so that it wont rotate if you lie down for example

That was super interesting, thanks for the vid!

That logic board looks very similar to an iMac G3 motherboard. (no hardware similarity implied!)

@diciccsh keeps him grounded so he doesn't create a static charge that could damage the circuitry

Excellent and clear video... thank you

excellent camerawork

thank you for showing me this,the batteries are huge!

Fantastic video!

No one seems to "need" an iPad... That is.. until they get their hands on one. =)

wow great video....you guys know your stuff! great job

Apple should use those free space for more battery or memory slot

Great video Omar/Milliamp! Very Interesting...

I love iPad, I'm typing from mine right now! :P

@Jshulman1995 The cutaway is the exact same size and shape as the iSight camera found in a MacBook

awesome vid,It felt like Mr. Rogers neighborhood.sweet omar

this is the song from "Plane" on the iPad haha!

wow awesome video!!! thats really cool. anthony is so cool, taking apart things looks like fun. but i dont have the guts to do it cuz id never be able to get it back together haha

If there wasn't a black frame around the edge of the screen, then you'd be putting your hand on the screen when you held it which would be pretty annoying.

Lol the frame was a iPad 2 prototype. Metal frame for magnetic smart cover. Also camera

@Frans000003 yes, and you think it all came together by magic, right? Did you see how small the logic board is, how big the battery is, how bright and vivid the display is, and how fluid the software works? Don't you realise that people have to research and test these things to be able to make them? Do you think this is all done for free? People complaining about the price just want to have one but are too close-fisted to admit it, I wouldn't be surprised at all if you are a digital pirate.

I just sent my 1st gen iPod touch to them, waiting for it to come back see if they can fix it

@phcnh u know how its say safely disasemble part thats to tell you he can put it back

@plektrum93 A buffer for your fingers, I'm assuming. That way your hands don't get in the way of the screen or cause unwanted movement on the multitouch display.

@TheApplefan1000 ipad can hold up to 6 on the homescreen dock without jailbreak due to its size

What is the unused connector between the speaker connector and digitizer connector

@VivaLaBamEpisodes yup, when I built my computer, I had to wear 1 to stop static building up and fking the new parts up :D

when you zoom in it's blurry and i cant tell what i'm looking at. otherwise, pretty interesting. and i was hoping u'd put it back together and speed it up.

@plektrum93: In that case, how would you hold the thing without accidentally touching the parts of the screen you don't want touched............

@naumankhawaja I would still prefer a slim "only-screen-looking" ipad. the technology/algebra for palmrejection is an eaysi instal. Everything bigger than a coin is not a tuch from a finger. The only good reason why the frame might be there is for the air cirkulation which is totaly accepteble but unnecessary. I have an Ipad my self and it is always very chilled no matter how hard I do run it.

can you use the screen to make a small tv somehow

So there's an orientation button? What's the purpose for it if there is an accelerometer?

@VivaLaBamEpisodes exactly

alot of room in their could easily fit a camera a company should do that

@luislastiri The info is in the description. It's Outlined by Budian

@MrMrGadgetboy1 since when can you fill space with software?

It's on a flash card not a hard drive it's the card u put on cameras kinda

hi can you help me to my ipad 64g my problem is i jail break my ipad then i accedentaly drain the battery. after that i charge it then when im trying to on just stock to apple logo? can you help me pls

@ferbrz for information, I removed the comment because I had a problem posting it, had to copy/paste and it did not work well. It was the same thing as above.

omg that was awesome :) :D

y u wearing that wrist band thing for ?

@TheApplefan1000 not if your iPad is jailbroken

you can tell that the tape in the speaker wires are human taped 0.o

Such a simple design. If only some companies that design tablets would make their logic boards slightly bigger then they could put more components in. I WISH I JUST WISH there was some kind of tablet that can support desktop linux os i would defiantly buy that =D but other then that iPad is cool i just kinda don't like apple for making great mobile devices because i don't like their software but its cool =D

@PALSHQ70 the iphone 4 wasn't out then.... the iphone 4 came out in june... that was april...

@WhiteFireDK Oh ok, that makes sense lol. Thanks!

wow my ipad showed me what is inside of it.

Smart

nice boondock saints tattoo lol

What's on his wrist ?

@VivaLaBamEpisodes Agains electic shocks....

How is it that an iPad requires such a tiny motherboard (and large battery) and a laptop has such a big motherboard and a relatively equal sized battery???

Helps prevent static shock from his hands damaging the components.

that is what happens to an iPad when I bust my magical moves!!!

That is true. But if Apple released a product like that they wouldnt make as much sales with their next product. They just make it thinner by 0.01 mm everytime. Thats how big ass companies make so much money.

cool

OK it's an ok vid, but u never said what one of the coax cables was for.... ????

the hole is for the ambiant light sensore, that frame is not that special

Why can't they show the proper way to open it?

Mt iPad owns all iPads

Don't worry bro, I don't kno how to focus a camera either...

@CoDFreak200 try apple customer service

veritas

Finnaly apple is using its own manifactured product and does not have toshiba chips

Hyundai that the name

Interesting - they don't use any form of hard drive

@omarcorrea are you sure or is this a joke

i bet apple is so pissed watching this now

this vid rulz

can you buy me an iphone?

lots of unused space! =(

Now try putting it back together. I bet you CAN'T!!!

anybody else think he sounds like khumar from harold and khumar????

Over 600$ for a motherboard a cpu and a battery -_- oh yeah and I forgot THE APPLE LOGO !!

This is an iPad "2"

why does apple make that fat uggly black design frame round the screen if its that much space left inside the ipad? seriously it would be much better/cool looking if it looked like it just be a screen.

the wifi cable? sounds really stupid lol

apple released this iPad so people would buy it, and they r going to release another one with a camera 2 make more money.

i think apple made the first ipad like shit on purpose, many people bought it. then they will make the ipad 2g and that one will have usb plugs and all awesome things that havent been in the first one, and most of the people who bought the first one will buy the second one, too.

use are lucky use dont have school tomorrow!!!!!!

looks so cheap when opened

cool vid but i really hate the soundtrack

K

I don't like the music together with this video

My

This is not what's inside an iPad

.

This video kills me

ha the only other people who have seen this are slaves

Za 😁

@Dylan54333 Really? And where did you get the statistics? Take your bad language somewhere away from me, please. Tell me one tech company that doesn't "suck" and show me concrete proof, and maybe you'll get your credibility back, otherwise you're just an angry little person who watches a video about a product made by a company that you don't like and comment on it because you are just an attention seeker that thinks it's funny to make rude comments... We aren't all children here.

You just wasted your or someone's money....
