    Hi All,

    Im on ios 6.1 and debating if should upgrade to ios 8.4, the latest available, since most new games are either 7 or 8 atm.

    Did you encounter any problems with the ipad in general on 8.4 performance wise or was the gameplay affected in any way in your old games?

    Thank you!

    I believe that you'd have to upgrade to 9.Xx because that's the latest version, which might not be the best call. I don't have an iPad 4 though, so someone else might be able to give you a better answer.

    Hi I have an Ipad 4 gen myself on ios 8.4 and I didn't see major problem but sometime I notice crash while surfing iTune or appstore, but in the games its all good.

    It depend what game you are playing too some of the new game I have some lag issues but still playable.

    Don't upgrade! I wish I was still on iOS 6. You are lucky to own one of the few iPad 4's still on iOS 6. The OS is so much faster, and has more battery life. Of course, you will be missing updates for some apps.
    Never forget that upgrading still is a one-way ticket, and you might regret it. Apart from that, the very latest games don't always run at highest graphics settings. You might want to buy an iPad Air 2 or wait for the next gen device (at this time I would wait).
    I wish I still had the iOS 6 Safari. It looked so much better and was way more responsive.
