If I want to use an iPad for the full safari browser and play Facebook games such as MyVEGAS slots would the iPad be able to play such games? Or would the 2gb of ram be too limiting?
Thanks
 
Newest 8th gen iPad has 3gb of ram
Thanks but there would not be a slow down or crash due to the website size such as Facebook games?

Can it run complex applications such as games?

I think the bigger issue would be how well the game controls would translate to touchscreen. Also not sure if mouse input would be treated similar to PC/Mac.

Used to play these games on my Surface Pro 1 so they should perform very well.
 
Does the iPad safari desktop version work differently than iPhones? I tested this app/game on my iPhone 11 it loads, but then crashes with an unknown error…
 
Yes they do, but MyVEGAS browser and application are different.
 
I have returned the 32 gb model and got a 128 gigabyte model.

There is zero lag on the 128 gb model. You would think the 32 gb and 128 gb model would perform the same.

Mind, SSD speed is slower on 32GB than 128GB. It's just how SSDs work. With that said, it's kinda weird that the lag is that bad on 32GB.
 
Very interesting, but glad that worked out. I’m guessing there was something wrong with that unit. Any modern iPad should be able to run that Facebook game no issue. A12 is still a very good chip
