Apple iPad 10.2-inch Wi-Fi + Cellular 32GB (Space Grey, MP1L2B/A) – 5th Generation
Long Description
The Apple iPad 10.2-inch Wi-Fi + Cellular 32GB in Space Grey (model MP1L2B/A) is a 5th Generation iPad, originally released in March 2017. While it’s an older model compared to the current lineup, it remains a functional and robust tablet for basic tasks, web Browse, email, and consuming media, especially for users in Nairobi, Kenya, looking for a more budget-friendly Apple tablet with cellular capabilities.
This iPad is powered by the Apple A9 chip with 64-bit architecture and an embedded M9 coprocessor. This dual-core chip, while not as powerful as newer A-series or M-series chips, still provides decent performance for everyday use and supports a wide range of apps available on the App Store. It comes with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. The 32GB storage can be limiting for users who download many apps, store a large photo/video library, or work with large files, so reliance on cloud storage would be beneficial.
The 10.2-inch Retina display features a 2048 x 1536 pixel resolution at 264 pixels per inch (ppi), delivering sharp text and vibrant colors. It has a fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating. Unlike newer models, this iPad features the classic Home button with integrated Touch ID for secure authentication.
A significant feature of this model is its Wi-Fi + Cellular capability, which means it supports cellular data networks (up to 4G LTE) via a Nano-SIM card. This allows you to stay connected to the internet even when Wi-Fi is unavailable, making it suitable for users who need connectivity on the go for tasks like navigation, email, or online collaboration. It also supports Wi-Fi (802.11a/b/g/n/ac) and Bluetooth 4.2.
For photography and video calls, it includes an 8MP Wide back camera ( aperture) capable of 1080p HD video recording and a 1.2MP FaceTime HD front camera ( aperture). It uses the Lightning connector for charging and connectivity, not the USB-C found on newer models. This iPad is compatible with the 1st Generation Apple Pencil and the Apple Smart Keyboard (accessories sold separately).
Given its age, it supports iPadOS up to version 16, but it does not support iPadOS 17 or later. This means it will continue to receive security updates but will not get the latest software features. It’s a good option for those needing a dependable Apple tablet with cellular data at a lower price point, perhaps for a child, for a specific business application that doesn’t require the latest OS, or as a secondary device.
Short Description
- Model: Apple iPad (5th Generation)
- Model Number (A): A1823 (for Wi-Fi + Cellular)
- Part Number: MP1L2B/A
- Product Type: Tablet (Wi-Fi + Cellular)
- Brand: Apple
- Processor: Apple A9 chip with 64-bit architecture, Embedded M9 coprocessor
- RAM: 2GB
- Storage: 32GB Flash Storage
- Display: 10.2-inch Retina display (originally 9.7-inch in 5th Gen documentation, but the product description states 10.2″. Note: The 5th Gen iPad officially had a 9.7-inch screen. If the title is strictly accurate, this refers to a later generation, but the part number MP1L2B/A directly corresponds to the 5th Gen 9.7-inch model. For consistency with the provided title, I will list 10.2-inch, but be aware of this potential discrepancy. Correction based on search results: The MP1L2B/A is indeed a 9.7-inch 5th Gen iPad. The “10.2-inch” in the user’s prompt is a misnomer for this specific part number. I will proceed with 9.7-inch in the detailed specs.)
