And that’s just the tip of the iceberg; iPad 2 now runs on a more powerful dual-core A4 processor and a battery that can last up to 10 hours. It retained its previous 9.7-inch LED-backlit LCD screen but two new distinctive front and rear mounted cameras were added. Yes, you know what that means – FaceTime.

HTC THUNDERBOLT REVIEW

The HTC Thunderbolt just released, so we just had to get one to open up and peer into. Before watching the video, here’s a few things worth noting about the Thunderbolt:It runs Android 2.2, not 3.0 The display is 4.3″ and 800×480. In the video below, I incorrectly stated it’s 4″ The Thunderbolt runs on Verizon’s 4G LTE network The camera on the back is 8MP, not 5MP.

It feels heavier, though the screen does feel smaller, which is perhaps why I thought it was a 4″ display at first glance....
