As mentioned, I don't mind about OS updates, I care about browser updates or at least patches for iOS Safari.

Nope. The battery on my iPad3 is fine. iPads should not be classed as a "throw-away" replaceable product like phones seem to be. CPU and RAM is fine for web browsing and most apps. Flash memory wearing out? Gimme a break.
Every Steam game homepage gallery is broken now on browsers that don't support ES6 javascript. The highlight player doesn't display images or video since recent update to their website. I previously enjoyed browsing Steam on my iPad looking for new games. Example:
http://store.steampowered.com/app/449640/Bloody_Zombies/ http://store.steampowered.com/app/449640/Bloody_Zombies/
Note, I partly blame Steam web devs for not making it backwards compatible, but also Apple for denying Safari any updates because of their dirty business model of abandoning their own products. Disgusting lack of modern environmentally concerned tech life-cycle standards. They boast about green packaging for products destined for the grave in only 5 years.
