Hello, I’m trying to figure out which iPad would work best for using Shapr3D. I’m not planning to do heavy tasks or complex projects, just basic 3D modeling. I’m considering the iPad 9th gen (it has 3GB of RAM and an A13 chip) and the iPad 10th gen (it has 4GB of RAM and an A14 chip). Would either of these be good enough, or do I need something more powerful? Performance/Price for Shapr3D is the main thing.

**iPad 9th is almost 250$ and iPad 10th is almost 400$**

Either is fine. I use a 5th gen and I have some complex models on here no problem.
