iPad 12th gen..

Magic drawing pad replacement
I have an iPad 9th gen (2019) and it still gets the latest iOS updates. 7 years support + 2 years of security updates made apple rule the tablets market. I am not an apple fanboy but I cannot ignore the fact that even their base model (400$) has the biggest life circle in the market.

Which mobile should I buy if I have a budget of only under 70k pkr (251$ USD)?
If you already have a phone or have the freedom to try another device, i suggest getting an older model iPad within ur price range, ive always played genshin on those and its amazing. An ipad is overall a great device for a lot, watching videos, draw, work etc. its a good portable work device, plus

Best 2nd hand iPad for Drawing, Note-taking, and Freelance work on a tight budget. Which iPad model should I save up for?
i feel you on the budget struggle. for used ipads on a tight budget, ipad 9th gen (2021) is your sweet spot - supports apple pencil 1st gen and runs procreate fine. ipad air 4th gen (2020) gives you pencil 2 magnetic charging and laminated screen but costs more used. ipad pro 2018 is overkill unless

would you buy it?
kinda feel you on that fear, marketplace can be a gamble. i've been burned before on 'legit' sellers. for a young kid just watching youtube and playing pizza games, you honestly don't need anything fancy. i'd check out Apple's certified refurbished iPads or a solid refurb on iPad 9th Gen - those are
