Analysis of the iPad 2 # 4

1.0 out of 5 star review analysis

The authors purpose of this review is to persuade the reader to not but the iPad 2 by saying things like it was "defect". I believe that it is not reliable because there are some typos in the review such as " benifit" and "defect" instead of defective in which it  would Amazom.com fit better. Most of the review was bias that Amazon.com in not good and along whith that there was some biast against the iPad 2. The viewpoint is that the iPad 2 is not a device worth the money and should not necessarily be bought from Amazon because it is "defected".

Analysis of iPad 2 #3

5.0 out of 5 star review analysis
The purpose of the 5 star review is both to persuade and to inform. The author is trying to get the reader[s] to but an iPad 2, there is no conflicting evidence in this review but there is pros and cons so it is to inform. This review was from Amazon.com and is not very reliable, but a review like this is not reliable unless it is from Apple.com. If it is from Apple.com it is true because apple is the maker of the iPad 2. This specific review shows a lot of bias and slant and some statistics and the info makes sense. Some examples of the bias and slant are when the author was listing the pros and cons. The viewpoint is that the iPad 2 is an amazing electronic device and should be bought. The bias and slant can make the article not reliable because the info is slanted to 1 belief.

Analysis of iPad 2 #2

I looked on a web site for info on the iPad2.They are very reliable, in their info and credibility. CNBC is affiliated with NBC, a government agency. So knowing they’re reliable, I proceeded to the info.

First Of All, They give accurate statistics about Apple being ahead of its competitors, 86% compared to 78%. These statistics are reliable because they were taken from a study executed by the University Of Michigan. There is no bias or slant, the author has no viewpoint, no conflicting evidence, and they are organized and reliable.

The info makes sense, because more people buy apple products (wider variety) than Amazon or other competitors. The author purpose is to inform his readers that more people are happy with the iPad than the Nook, Kindle, and the e reader.

Analysis of iPad 2 #1

          I looked at a reliable source, and I believe the author’s purpose is to inform, because the author is giving facts based on a poll, which says that 84% of iPad 2 users said that they were happy with the product, which is saying something, especially compared to its competitors, such as Amazon (Kindle) and Barnes & Noble (Nook).

           The important thing is reliability, which if it is not, could dash everything just said to dust. I believe it is reliable because of some key details needed on a site.

• 1) The site has a status on updates and when it was published.

• 2) The site has advertisements, which goes to show that some companies trust the site and believe that it is reliable.                                

• 3) They have a link to contact them in case anything is amiss.

• 4) They present a lot of facts, they are straightforward w/ out bias or slant, the article has common sense. The author has no viewpoint  on the subject. He is merely relaying the statistics.

So all in all, I believe this source is reliable.
