I dumped my iPhone 3GS for the same reasons [about the time the 5S came out]. One thing the early machines definitely suffer from is "memory too full" syndrome. If it's over half full [give or take], it will be slower - my 3GS was definitely faster once I dumped a whole load of songs from it, even though they should have had no influence on the OS itself. | |

| Feb 27, 2015 at 21:26 | comment | added | Tetsujin | If it's a 1st gen, it would simply not be capable of receiving the update & iTunes wouldn't let you get far enough to break it. My answer, at present, still stands. | |
| Feb 27, 2015 at 21:25 | comment | added | jet | He claims it's a 1st generation. The iPad wasn't capable of being upgraded to a higher version on the actual iPad in settings, I had to do it on my MacBook Pro. It's currently running iOS 8 after my upgrade on it but he claims Internet is very slow,choppy and works poorly. | |
