Thread title's a bit of a misnomer, as I'm forced to... I've already lost it. I primarily used this for gaming, and some misc. stuff (e.g. some reference documents and apps saved off line).
On one hand, it was still on ios7, and I didn't want to risk updating it to ios8, and then 9, so I was left with all the games I already had (as opposed to getting new games). The battery was running on 3.5 years under heavy use, and another 6 months of very low usage, so it was going to go in due time anyways. Only reason to get another handheld iOS device is for portable gaming. Problem is, my iCloud was full, and I doubt my game save progress transferred over. OTOH, I quit or suspended many of my ongoing games due to time, forgetfulness, or out of sheer frustration of hitting a wall.
If I get another iOS handheld device, it's gotta be something with a 4.7" or 5.5", so probably a used Iph6/S/+. However, I'm not completely locked out of ios gaming, as I still have my Ipad Air on ios8, and did start/finish some games on there.
Is it even worth it to get a new IpT5 or IpT6 if I can find them new for under $50 and $100 respectively, or should I just cut my losses and get into handheld gaming via Nintendo 3DS, or Switch?
