We already know that iPad 2 is 27% thinner then first generation iPad. But when it comes to the glass front end it was assumed that iPad 2 would be weaker then iPad 1. It has already been reveled that the iPad 2 has 8.8mm width which is much thinner then iPhone 4.
But a new test by folks at iFixYouri shows that iPad 2 glass screen is in fact stronger than iPad 1 even though its thinner. For those who don’t know that iPad 2 width has went from 13.4mm to 8.8mm which is 27% thinner from the original iPad. But much thinner glass of iPad 2 doesnt’ mean it is vulnerable to break. Instead now it has become much more flexible and more bending tolerance then the first generation iPad.
You can checkout the video of the tests below:
