hi I got an Ipad 3 that is still in very good condition.

Note: I know Ipad can upgrade iOS to 9, but I will not do it because iOS 9 will not be as snappy/smooth as iOS 6 on this old ipad 3.

The ipad 3 is still very good in web browsing, But those ads in some website is starting to take a lot of resource for my ipad 3. Opening more than 3 web browser tab will lag.

That old Safari web browser does not block ads, anyone know what browser in App store that block ads and support iOS 6? I checked Opera/Firefox/Chrome all of them need iOS 9 minimum

my ipad 2 have no issue running ios 8. Since when I upgrade, jailbreak is available, I can install apps to reduce animation to speed up the OS. With jailbreak I also installed things like adblock and so on. So this is why jailbreak is important to me.

My iPad2 on iOS 6 was giving me quite a bit of problems. Chrome browser keeps shutting down. Safari was bit better. Operations/response were slow so decided to upgrade to iOS 9.3.5. My rationale is since my iPad is about to "Die" bcos of the outdated iOS I might as well take the risk to upgrade the iOS.

So far it is ok, yes sometimes it is a bit jerky but I can live with that.
