Every year we see the release of tablets Appleand if in 2010 the first iPads it was available in a single version, over the years the models have multiplied. We’ve had the Mini, Air and Pro variants, but for many the obvious choice is the basic model, the more pocket-sized one for those who don’t want to shell out a penny. But as we can see from resistance test made by JerryRigEverything, Apple has also cut corners in terms of build quality.
The 2022 iPad doesn’t fare well under stress in the endurance tests
Let’s talk about the elephant in the room right away: the bending testthe famous bending test that caused a new victim in the form of iPad 2022. Trying to bend it with both hands, Zach simply manages to break the body of the Apple tablet, whose weak point turns out to be the section where the magnetic pins of the Smart Connector are located. Thanks to them it is possible to connect the Smart Keyboard and transform the tablet into a laptop, provided you have a less resistant side frame.
It must be said that the bend test is not exactly an ideal test for testing the build quality of a device, even if tablets are more prone to bending due to their larger diagonal than smartphones. But it is also true that the profitability of the 2022 iPad can also be denoted by another more significant detail, such as the distance between the glass and the LCD panel which returns a less premium visual effect than the more expensive Apple tablets. Otherwise, the iPad lives up to expectations, with a glass front and a metal body with medium scratch resistance.
