14 years old here, been using it for my school and other heavy tasks. Can play heavy games at 50 fps to 60. I played CodM with it. It has medium graphics with 60 fps. Such a cool budget iPad. 👍

i own this ipad and the problem is battery but the rest is all good as its very smooth running iOs 18.1 sadly no Apple Intelligence but it runs mostly games very well but dont get 64GB Ver if u can get the 256GB Bc the iOs 18's updates are takin...
