Best tablet for Roblox

Ds has an older kindle fire. It keeps crashing everything he tries to play Roblox. I’ve bought a memory card to see if it helps and it didn’t.

His birthday is coming up in March and I’ve promised him I’ll get him a better tablet. Which ones work better?

I got my son an iPad for Xmas so much better than the kindle that's what he mainly uses it for

I’ve been looking at iPads. I reckon it may be the only one strong enough. Any recommendations for a particular one?

My daughter uses a 9th generation ipad to play roblox but I'm sure there are cheaper alternatives. If I'm being honest though a phone is less laggy then any pad she has used so she tends to use a samsung phone J6 although of course its a much smaller screen

iPads are the best tablets - there is no comparison - and they last years.
Obviously the newer the better/faster. Roblox graphics are getting better all the time and some are now quite advanced so newer is definitely better.

The “memory card” won’t have worked as that would only provide storage space for files not increase the RAM in the tablet or improve the processing speed. A lot of people don’t undrstand that “memory cards” are storage not memory; and storage is not the same as memory (RAM).

Thanks all. I’ll look an iPad. He’s too young for a phone yet. He will be 8 in March but an iPad is a fair compromise

Definitely an iPad. My son uses Roblox on one at least 4 years old and it's fine.

Fire tablets are crap IMHO!

I'm not sure what one it is I bought it cheap at Costco just before the new iPad came out. It still has a home button which is the one we were wanting for him
