As the title states, the real, true planned obsolescence is the iPad Pro 12.9” 2015 being unable to multitask all 3 apps at once.
Originally you had the feature to do so in the first two betas until it was removed, after the next couple of betas I found a bug to force all 3 apps to run simultaneously, then once again Apple patched this bug. And from my experience, my iPad Pro never had hiccups when doing this and battery held up pretty well.
What’s ridiculous is, my mother’s iPad mini 4 (that had 2gb of ram) was able to run 3 apps simultaneously as well, and it’s performance was the same as if it were to run two apps side by side. So clearly this isn’t a hardware limitation. This is planned obsolescence. And I don’t think Apple ever mentioned in it’s keynote or it’s website that running all 3 apps simultaneously only works for the new iPad Pro models.
