iPad iPad 3 to iPad Pro 9,7

So guys someone on iPad-3 should he update to iOS 10 or not ? With iOS 9 the performance and the speed of operating had already taken a hit so with iOS 10 will it be further bad ?

I don't think any of us ipad 3 owners will upgrade to ios 10.

I don't think any of us ipad 3 owners will upgrade to ios 10.

But a lot of people are saying that if you have already upgraded to iOS 9 upgrading to iOS 10 would be almost the same, the experience will be almost the same so there is no harm in upgrading is what some guys are saying !

Since it is just a Beta release Apple has yet not come out with an Official Statement on which all devices will it support ! Maybe it will, but it will be freakin slow to the core !

But they have. At the very bottom of this page. iPad 4 is now the cutoff.

Yeah, the iPad 2 and 3 aren't getting iOS 10. You're stuck on iOS 9.3.2/3.

Oh and one more question, my iPad 3 can't seem to open some VLC movies as it stutters on some, is this a RAM issue and will it be resolved on the Pro?

Thx for reading

I would stick with this player (opt for the paid version, the free has too many ads):
https://itunes.apple.com/br/app/nplayer/id539397400?mt=8

Instead of VLC. Or Infuse (I didn't buy the latter, due to non-support of some audio files, like MP3). This nPlayer is way better than VLC, and I tried here sending a file from my PC to VLC, and the max upload speed was 1.7 MB/s. Sending through nPlayer, it reached 10 MB/s, even by using the iPAD 4.

I also checked 4K (2160p) videos downloaded using JDownloader from Youtube, and they all play fine in iPAD Pro 9.7. I think it's worth every cent the upgrade. I am selling my iPAD 4.

(2) I don't like Apple Pencil, it's very difficult to hold.
