The iPad 2's screen design is even more durable than that of the iPad 1, claims iFixYouri. The repair outfit recently conducted a series of tests on parts for both tablets, attempting to break the screens by dropping objects on them, or flexing them by hand or with a plank of wood. Whereas the iPad 1 screens invariably broke with enough effort, the iPad 2 parts refused to crack until extreme hand-bending was used.
