The iPad A1430, also called the "New iPad", was the first tablet with a display that supports Retina technology, providing a stunning high-resolution picture.

The design of the device remained the same, the same as the previous version of the tablet from Cupertino. The only significant difference in terms of design was the increased weight. Such a sacrifice was required to install a better display and a powerful chip at that time.

IPad A1430: Specifications

By today's standards this tablet is rather weak and does not cope with a number of tasks. Nevertheless, the tablet is still alive and can give odds to "odnododkam" from the camp "Android" devices.

Battery - iPad has always been famous for its "survival", which model does not take in hands, each is ready to survive its 10 hours without recharging, this is the standard for the iPad.

Processor - this chip was created on the basis of Apple A5, but received a higher frequency, as well as quad-core graphics PowerVR, which allows to run modern games in high resolution and play Full HD video without any criticism in the direction of performance.

Memory - in the case of iOS one gigabyte of RAM is usually more than enough for all the main tasks, applications do not crash and remain in memory for a long time even today. Despite the fact that the amount of memory in Apple products varies, specifically this model iPad A1430 is equipped with only 32.

The display is the main pride of Apple engineers. Displays with double resolution have become the business card of this corporation and all its products.

The camera - both cameras in the tablet are rather weak because of uselessness, few people at that time took photos with a tablet, especially such a heavy one.

Also worth noting that the iPad A1430 is equipped with a cellular module, that is, it supports SIM-cards.

Upgrade to iOS 7

The turning point in the fate of the tablet was the release of the seventh edition of the operating system iOS. Updated design, new visual effects and significantly enhanced functionality were too tough for even such a powerful device as the Apple iPad A1430.

Since then, the performance of the gadget has dropped dramatically, and in its place came the iPad 4 generation and a completely new iPad Air. Nevertheless, the iPad A1430 supports even the latest firmware version (iOS 9.3).

Prices, opinions, feasibility of purchase

Even buy such a device is quite difficult, the only option is to take the tablet from hand, that is, second-hand. The price for this model iPad is an average of 15 000 rubles, which in comparison with more modern models is quite cheap and profitable. So is it worth it to buy? Many users to this day do not part with this version of the tablet, because they believe that its performance is more than enough. Indeed, many simple tasks, such as Internet access, video viewing and communication, are given to the tablet without problems, everything works at a decent level. Small hangs and no support are covered by the price of the device. Therefore, this tablet should be regarded as a kind of "dacha" communicator or tablet to the child, with these tasks he will cope with a bang.
