Comparison Video: BlackBerry PlayBook vs Apple iPad
In a video comparison, RIM's PlayBook tablet demonstrates superior speed, better handling of Adobe Flash content, and stronger HTML5 support compared to the early iPad running iOS 3.2.2. This video, presented by RIM to emphasize the PlayBook's advantages, is intended for those eagerly awaiting the PlayBook's release and those who enjoy seeing the iPad outperformed.
The PlayBook's speed advantage is due to its newer hardware platform and modern operating system compared to the iPad's first software version. The iPad, running on iOS 3.2.2, was more limited in multitasking and graphics performance.
The PlayBook's native support for Adobe Flash allows it to display Flash video and interactive content seamlessly, while the iPad, lacking this support, cannot play this content without workaround apps or conversions.
In terms of HTML5, the PlayBook's browser supports more advanced features than the iPad's Safari browser at iOS 3.2.2, allowing richer media and interactive web content.
Combining speed, Flash compatibility, and HTML5 support, the PlayBook offers a more modern web browsing experience and application performance compared to the early iPad shown.
This comparison is consistent with the timeline: The PlayBook was released in April 2011, boasting features aimed to differentiate it, including Flash support and a QNX-based OS optimized for performance. The original iPad in iOS 3.2.2 was from early 2010 and lacked these capabilities.
It is important to note that this advantage was relative to the early iPad software version (3.2.2); later updates to iOS and newer iPad models improved speed and added support for modern web standards, diminishing this gap over time. The PlayBook eventually failed to compete strongly in the market, partly due to hardware limitations and a limited app ecosystem.
