Alright, pic related is a first gen iPad Air, it's almost 4 years old, will receive iOS 11, and can multitask even though it has only 1GB of RAM.
This thing still gets a solid 10 hour battery life, doesn't lag at all (A7 chip) and has a high resolution 4:3 panel that looks fucking great.
ITT: Try finding a 3-4 year old Android Tablet that is runnin Android 7, can multitask and doesn't lag.
Hard mode: find a android tablet that can multitask while having only 1GB of RAM
pro tip: you can't

Hey thats wrong, First gen owner here. The Air cannot multitask with side by side thanks to apple's buy the Air 2 campaign >10 Hour battery life wrong. >Doesn't lag at all wrong. iOS 10.2 is a stutterfest with animations turned off even. >Can multitask my ass nigga. Its a fucking shit iPad that gets cucked by the Air 2 because Apple wants it to be.
Jaxon Bell
woops I forgot to fill in the first answer Hour battery life >wrong It's not 10 hours, its 5 at best when used under load. Standby is fucking ace.
I dropped it face first and the glass shattered. It wasn't a bad tablet but its nowhere as good as you're making it out to be. I'm using my sister's iPad 3 with iOS 8.4 and it feels just as fast. You better stop shilling this.

Animations on here, no lags at all. Lottery I guess? Mine is slow as shit on 10+ >> The Air cannot multitask with side by side thanks to apple's buy the Air 2 >The Air 2 has 2GB of RAM, maybe that's the reason it can run side by side apps. OP pic is not side by side, it's slideover + Video over (Yes, that's multitasking as well) Now, you can't claim it multi tasks if you can't have side by side can you?
Juan Morales
thats an iPad 3, it shouldn't lag this bad if you stick on iOS 8.4 but its pretty trash that they claim updates for ever are good things. This webm shows a new OS choking old hardware in a vista-like scenario.
Joseph Myers
>Lottery I guess? Mine is slow as shit on 10+ Idk man, try a clean iOS install. I swear it performs great on me. > Now, you can't claim it multi tasks if you can't have side by side can you? I don't agree. Slide-over is fast enough to be categorized as multitasking in my opinion. Video over is definitely multitasking too.
Josiah Rivera
Android tablets were always shit m9. They also got killed off by chromebooks.

All have my original iPad Air and using it to shitpost from the toilet right now. Amazed this thing still gets updated and still works so well. Best piece of tech I have ever owned and thinking about getting the new Pro with the 120hz screen.
Benjamin Anderson
iPad mini 2 is better. I feel iOS doesn't suit the larger 10 and 12 inch iPads. Too bad they're axing the Mini series.
Parker Nguyen
As a person who fixes Apple devices for side income.
That Air lags and you know it, chump. Just because you are blinded by Apple doesn't mean it isn't far slower than at launch.
Also even the Note 4 is that old and doesn't lag (unless an Apple user is using it) or a Nexus 6 (again unless an Apple user is using it). Far smoother than the equal iphones of the time. With modification both of those devices, and several more, have yet to need replacing. Still higher resolution than iOS phones with more of everything.
Also. The Shield is 3 years old now. Still as fast as the day it came out and more capable than even the Air 2 by a large margin.
One last thing poorfags. Surface Pro 1/2 are from 2012/2013. They can still emulate Cube/Wii at 60fps at 720p or higher depending on the game. Again proving iOS is dead last.

Not to mention Windows is king when it comes to updates. An 2006 laptop with a Core Duo will continue to get updates for everything, and it will run just as smoothly as most laptops on the market now with an SSD installed.
Jaxon Price
Nexus 7 2013 has 2GB of RAM but it can run Lineage OS and all sorts of custom ROMs. Tablets are still retarded though.
Jose Cox
>Note 4 is that old and doesn't lag Even the S8 lags m8, what the fuck are you talking about? > Nexus 6 That came 1 year later. Also, not a tablet. > Shield is 3 years old now. Still as fast as the day it came out and more capable than even the Air 2 You're saying the Nvidia shield is more capable than the Air 2? How? That was a huge failure and everyone on Sup Forums agrees > Surface Pro 1/2 are from 2012/2013 Those are not normal tablets, they're Intel core laptop abortions that get less than 4 hours of battery life while throttling even with the loud fan kicking in 100% of the time. Today the surface is much better, but too expensive compared to the iPad.
Andrew Russell
> Nexus 7 Too small tho, build quality a shit too. Can it even multitask?
Alexander Gomez
You only think tablets are retarded because you're stuck with an Android one. Apps are literal dog shit on Android tablets because they're all designed for phones so you get a whole bunch on wasted screen space, and onscreen buttons really don't make sense on tablet.

I still own and use the actual first generation ipad. It still works perfectly except it gets no updates and no apps support it anymore. I honestly can't believe how long it's lasted. Battery life still lasts more than a day and it barely lags at all except on some awful websites like gfycat homepage.

It's still on the OG 5.1.1 OS. Can't upgrade any further. The only annoying thing is if any video is over 29 fps the ipad won't play it. Gotta use an ancient video converting program for it.

OP here, I've made a simple speed/RAM test on my first ge Air
Loaded apps: > 4 safari tabs on Sup Forums > 1Blocker > Google Translator > Manga Reader > Monster Hunter Freedom Unite > Codea project Honetly, pretty impressive for 1GB of RAM, I would like to see how Android tablets performs on similar situations.
I'm pretty sure it could handle a few more tabs if I tried

Old iPads are trash. Unbearably slow and nothing worth doing on them.
Lincoln Perez
No one sane argues against Lagdroid sucking.
But what's the fucking point of multitasking on a fucking tablet and getting a keyboard for it if you got a fucking laptop? If it's too heavy, just get a the new one. Way more functional.
Doesn't it just offload the Safari tabs from ram either way?
Julian Powell
>Today the surface is much better, but too expensive compared to the iPad What? Surface Pro is the exact same price as iPad Pro, back then Surface 3 is the same price as iPad air 2 too

Kek yourself. Desktop browser. End of story. The Android apps are just the cherry on top. I can build Android apps on my Chromebook. Can you build iPad apps on your iPad? Thought not.
Christopher Fisher
Surface Pro starts at 1.3k (Winshit is barely usable with 4GB RAM)
Then if you add the pen and keyboard, it's 160 + 100, aka. $1560
FagPad is 900 with 256GB, + 100 for pencil and 170 for keyboard aka. $1170

The 799 version is unusable for anything but browsing. Besides, it's not like you'd get a much bigger harddrive with Winshit chugging a huge piece away.

>4GB is fine Hahaha.
>it's not like the iPad can do anything other than web browsing It has quite a bit pro software (which is often inferior to desktop stuff but at least optimised for tablets), besides it's viable for drawing due a non shit pen. At best you can do notes with SP.
