There isn't one. iPads are the longest supported tablets out there. So I guess they are saying that they are so upset about this that they will stop using tablets altogether, which I suppose is a valid, if weird choice.
- smoldesu 4y agoIf you want to be pedantic, the Microsoft Surface will have Linux Kernel support long after the iPad has become a derelict memory in the minds of Generation Z.
- gambiting 4y agoBut that's not official support. That's like saying that my 10 year old Nexus 7 can still be flashed with latest versions of custom ROMs so it's the longest supported tablet out there.
- smoldesu 4y agoHey, works for me. I flash a lot of my devices with custom ROMs after EOL, and they work great.
- ta8903 4y agoIt's a computational device, it's normal to be able to install whatever OS you want on it. Apple is the outlier here.
- gambiting 4y agoI'm not disagreeing with that. I'm just pointing out that when it comes to official support, Apple provides the longest out of all manufacturers.
- jamesgeck0 4y agoMine can't. The first generation entry-level Nexus 7 used a cheap storage chip that wore out within two or three years; it's completely unusable.
- Wowfunhappy 4y agoI was actually thinking that would probably apply to Windows support as well!

- Wowfunhappy 4y agoWindows 10 will be supported until 2025 though. (And to be honest, I'll be surprised if Microsoft doesn't extend that given Windows 11's system requirements.)
