Cheapest ipad to play ROBLOX

Rev

Not sure why you!!!8217;d expect an old iPad to come with the latest software. For it to not be capable os iOS 11it must be at least 4/5 years old. They can only replace like for like. They can!!!8217;t magically make an old iPad capable of running the latest software.

Keep an eye on the Apple refurb site they often have last years iPad 32gb for around £230.

iPads has or their value remarkably well so I would say that it’s probably worth only buying new or refurbished. An older model with lose its software support sooner than the iPad will last. We have Ann iPad mini one which is only a few years old but will not do any software updates and is stuck on 9.3 which means that some apps like netflix will no longer work. So I would suggest you buy as newer model as possible in a sale from somewhere like John Lewis who offer a 3 year warranty.
Personally I wouldn’t buy another iPad as they are expensive and quite restrictive in terms of screen sharing and apps you can download.
A £200 android tablet would probably be better value than a £300 iPad.

It’s the only thing he wants

That’s what I’m trying to do, buy a new one at the best price I can.
Curry’s had a trade in deal, they would have given me £50 off a new one for the old one. But it’s just finished, I was messing about thinking the Apple replacement would be ok for ROBLOX & I’ve missed out.
I posted here hoping someone might know of another deal.

I thought the like for like replacement would have the software up to date to be able to play roblox.

Why? They're not going to do you a favour just because you've bought one previously I'm afraid.

Actually Apple do.
They will replace any old Apple product for a decent price.
I drove over my phone once (destroyed it) and had it replaced for £150.

Why do people do this on mse!
I’ve said straight from the off, I want an Apple iPad that is capable of playing roblox.
That’s like me saying, I’m interested in buying a nice new Range Rover and someone coming along and saying, have you thought about a second hand fiat panda!!

I like Apple and Apple compatible products.

When I bought a refurbished Apple iPad from Apple, it turned out to be a new IPad that just needed a software update. 4 years later it developed a fault (known issue apparently) and they swapped it for a new one (same model) without question.

I wouldn't discount a refurbished iPad bought directly from Apple.
