Rotating Camera Captures Photos and Videos
The InnoTab 2 has a digital camera, so kids can take pictures and videos of themselves and their friends. Children can save and edit their photos and customize them using wacky special effects and stamps. The camera built into the tablet's frame rotates from back to front to capture the action wherever it is happening. Videos can be purchased, downloaded from the Learning Lodge Navigator, and played back on the InnoTab 2 Learning App Tablet.
Interactive E-Reader Brings Stories to Life
The InnoTab 2 Learning App Tablet lets your child explore e-books in an interactive way. Each e-book features story narration, character voices, animation, and vivid graphics to keep new readers engaged. Children can even interact with the characters in their story. Words are highlighted on the screen as your child reads, and they can touch individual words to see how they are pronounced. Each e-book also comes with a story dictionary to help build vocabulary and reading comprehension. The InnoTab 2 includes one e-book "What's That Noise?" and more are available for purchase via VTech's Learning Lodge Navigator.
Control Games with the Touch Screen and Motion Sensor
With the 5-inch touch screen and motion sensor, kids can enjoy interactive play with educational games and apps. They can tap, flick, drag and drop, just as their parents do with their own touch-screen tablet device. The motion sensor lets you turn, tilt, and move the tablet in different directions for additional fun while game playing.
The InnoTab 2 also comes with a pop-up, on-screen keypad and two styluses. Kids can take notes, draw pictures, create an address book, or use built-in utilities like the calendar and calculator. Each InnoTab 2 can be personalized for up to four users with different photo wallpaper, user names, avatars, and voice and typed greetings. It even has a kickstand so it can stand upon its own.
Tablet Includes Apps, with More Available Online
With the included apps and games, kids can begin to play as soon as they receive their InnoTab 2. The tablet comes with two motions games, two free downloads on the Learning Lodge Navigator, two touch-screen games, one e-book, art studio and coloring book apps, and several other options for fun and learning.
VTech also offers an extensive library of games, apps, and e-books to purchase via the Learning Lodge Naviagtor or on individual cartridges.

Customer Reviews
- Both have the same screen size (2 ˝" x 4 ˝"), or 5" if you're measuring diagonally.
- Both require 4 AA batteries (not included).
- Both use a stylus.
- Both have a cartridge port for additional games, and uses purchased apps.
- Both have an age requirement of 3-9 years. VTech's Amazon page says 4-9 years, but the box and VTech's website state 3-9 years.
- Both have a camera.
- Both have additional accessories you can buy like gel skins, cases, rechargeable batteries, ac adapters, and headphones. UPDATE: the InnoTab doesn't have a gel skin accessory, just a screen guard you can purchase. LeapPad you can purchase both separately.
- Both can be personalize for up to 4 players.
- Both have eReaders, MP3 Players (InnoTab's is free, LeapPad's is an additional $3.75 through their App store), art studio, and most of your basic themed books and games.
- Both have a mic and volume control.
- Some people like to creatively take the tablets out of the box for setup before handing to a child as a gift. LeapPad2 was a bit difficult, but doable. The InnoTab2 is a bit more of a challenge; just use sharp scissors to break the tape and fold out the box carefully.
- Both have a parent tracker that allows parents to track their child's progress and success playing a game.
HOW ARE LEAPPAD2 AND INNOTAB2 DIFFERENT?
- The LeapPad2 is smaller. Actually it looks like with InnoTab2 they were the same size, but they surrounded it with an additional Ľ" layer of decorative plastic with rubber corners to help protect it from a fall. For small hands I find it cumbersome. Plus it makes the screen appear smaller.... Read more ›
Unlike the description above you can add up to a 32GB memory card. With plenty of apps you can download from v-tech (e.g. learn to write by tracing letters etc.) there's absolutely nothing a kid can't learn.
My 2yr old enjoys the storybooks while my 5yr old goes through a whole bunch of games. It's not games like on a Playstation or so. So far to my knowledge there are no action games available - it's meant for learning!
My children had the Innotab 1 prior to this. And although they were playing quite rough with it at times it's still in great shape (I would recommend a screen protector though). The only bad thing I can say about it so far - one load of batteries only lasts about 6 hrs. So rechargables (unfortunately it won't accept all brands) or the wall adapter are nice to have.
Compared to the Leapfrog I prefer the Innotab since you can insert a memory card and load up your own movies from DVD's. Just copy and install.
Pros for the InnoTab: I love the camera design. The Leap Pad2 has two cameras, one in the front and one in the back. InnoTab's design has a rotating camera, so you can switch it from front to back. My son says this adds extra coolness, which I must say I agree, it was a nice touch. This also has a neat photo editing lab where the kids can add in stamps, borders and change colors. I'd say this is a tie for Leap Pad/InnoTab. Sound quality is good. I like the rubber bumpers on the InnoTab. Both products say they are for ages 3-9, but I think the InnoTab is actually geared towards the younger crowd. That being said, if my son happens to drop the InnoTab, I feel like it has more protection with the bumper. I also like the wide variety of games and stories you can get on the InnoTab. We've had Leapster products for so long, and it seems like they are just releasing the same game in a different format (Leap Pad, Leapster, etc.) With the InnoTab, it's a whole new set of things to choose from, including some choices Leap Frog does not have, like Hello Kitty.
Cons: The screen size is the same, but I think the clarity is better on the Leap Pad2. Also, as another reviewer has mentioned, there's a longer lag in loading on this product as compared to the Leap Pad2. It's not as noticeable to my younger child, but my six year old gets frustrated at times waiting for each game section to load.... Read more ›
My niece loves her Innotab. Except when she is eating or sleeping, she's playing with her Innotab all day long. She loves most the built in Art Studio app.
I loaded tons of children movies (Pixar's, Disney's, Dreamworks etc), Music Videos (from Kidsongs) and mp3 ("Nursery Rhymes" and "Sing Along" albums from Kidsongs also). So after the art lesson, she's either dancing along the music or watching movies.
The menu is very intuitive. My niece was able to learn how to operate it on her own.
Since I gave the toy to my niece, her mother is updating me daily. On the second day, she was able to learn how to use the camera, and she keeps on taking picture of herself.
For those with old Innotab, note that the optimize movie format is different on the new one.But you can still play the movies from Innotab 1 on Innotab 2, but not optimize.
For movies, I used WinX DVD Ripper Platinum. It's a paid app. I tried several free DVD ripper, but it cannot rip original DVDs (error: encrypted). After ripping, I converted it to Innotab 2 format using FreeMake. You might want to use VirtualDub (freeware) to increase the volume of the movies when played on Innotab. If your child is using headset, there's no need to use VirtualDub.
The only issue I encounter so far was the Learning Lodge Navigator (LLN). It's very slow. Everytime I connect the Innotab, it'll take some time before it opens. If you're just going to add movies, pictures or movies, don't use LLN. Just copy and paste it directly to the correct folder (Ex: H:\LLN\Movies for movies).
Aside from the Innotab 2, I also bought the following.... Read more ›
