Your own personal big screen.
A beautiful 9.7-inch high-resolution display makes iPad perfect for watching any kind of c: from HD movies and TV shows to podcasts and music videos. Since iPad is essentially one 9.7-inch screen - with no distracting keypad or buttons - you feel completely immersed in whatever you're watching. And you can keep watching videos on iPad for up to 10 hours, thanks to the lithium-polymer battery in iPad.*
Buy or rent a movie on the go.
Tap the iTunes icon and you'll find thousands of movies — including HD movies — ready and waiting. Tap and browse around. When you find a movie you like, watch a preview. Whatever you buy or rent downloads right to your iPad video library, so you'll be at the movies in minutes.

Even tap to browse through chapters.
Movies on the fly.
Say you're on an airplane. Pull out your iPad, prop it on your tray table using the optional iPad Case, and fill your flight with movies. Though iPad have 9.7-inch high-resolution display, you can watch videos on iPad up to 10 hours, so even the longest flight will really fly by. Because the iPad display uses IPS technology, it has an amazingly wide 178° viewing angle. So you can see the display clearly even off to the side. IPS and the powerful built-in speaker also make iPad perfect for watching with a friend (or two) when you land.
Sync with iTunes.
When you connect iPad to your Mac or PC, whatever you downloaded on the go can sync to the iTunes library on your computer. It works the other way around, too. Movies, TV shows, and video from iTunes on your computer can sync to your iPad. And syncing to iTunes is a great way to back up video on your iPad.
