Browser battle: PlayBook vs iPad

Ok so this video is not really new but its fairly recent to get a some attention here. It’s a video comparing the browser performance of the BlackBerry Playbook and the Apple iPad. It gives a good indication of what the PlayBook can do and you can get a feel of how responsive the device is but do note that the video is made by RIM.

In the video you’ll see a PlayBook and iPad (running iOS 3.2.2) running through a series of tests and websites to showcase the the speed of the PlayBook browser, it’s support for Flash and the performance of open web standards like HTML 5 on the PlayBook.

So far we’re liking what we see but considering that the PlayBook needs to compete with the iPad 2, it has to be better it a lot of other things as well.

Head on over to after the jump to see the video.
