Title: $100 ipad worth it?
Post by: strongbad on November 17, 2013, 11:41:35 AM
my friend is looking to part with his ipad since he just got a macbook air
he's down to give it up for $100. i think it's first gen (maybe 2nd)

i was planning on buying a nexus 7 in the near future (lol i've been planning this for like a year but regardless) but do you think this is a worthwhile deal? i wouldn't buy it and sell it for more, since that'd be a dick move. huhhh???

doesn't have retina screen, but has ios 7 support unlike the first one that only supports ios 5

I've noticed that iOS7 is really slow and laggy on an iPhone 4S, which is newer than the iPad2, yeah?

my experience with ios7 is solely on the original ipad mini
it runs well on mine and has the same hardware as the ipad 2

what use would you have for a first gen ipad

it's gen 2
i think i'm going to buy it
it'll be a good life upgrade since my laptop is huge and the battery is dead so i wouldn't have to lug it around with a power cord everywhere

fuck my friend was looking up how much his ipad 2 was actually worth and now he wants way more for it (which is reasonable)
back to the drawing board...
