My son uses the 9th gen for roblox and some of the graphics are so intense, it just glitches. Will the processor on this be a huge improvement for that?
Yes. It is. I’ve used the chips in both devices with that app, and I can see what you are talking about.

That said, you may want to wait. In Q1 of 2025, Apple is likely to release a much more capable base-level iPad. One that has more memory, GPU, and CPU capabilities. Though it will likely be $350 (or perhaps even up to $400) for the base, compared with the current sale price of $250. I think it will be worth the difference, though, given where Apple is going. The 10th gen base iPad is already about 2.5 years old.

I like the design of this iPad but 64 gigs is not worth the price for this iPad these days you at least need 128 gigs of storage to do anything much with a iPad!

Eh, good discount, but I wouldn’t buy an A14 powered device in late 2024. That chip is quite old now.

Others may disagree but I really wouldn’t recommend this for purchase. The screen is not great, the processor is very old, it’s only got 4gb of memory, only has 64gb of storage, doesn’t support HDR for media consumption and is gonna get replaced very soon by a much more capable tablet.

Maybe if someone just browses the web now and then or just wants a bigger screen for Kindle reading, it would be ok, but I’d recommend buying a used Air instead of this.

With iPads moving to 8GB of RAM like the Mini just did I think there's a good chance that units with 3 or 4GB like the 9th and 10th generation models might get left behind by software sooner rather than later. Not even because of Apple Intelligence or other AI features, but because 3 and 4 GB of RAM is not adequate even for a tablet operating system in 2024.
