Needles to say, if you are not going to use the ipad as a creative tool
Nor need it for the many Ipad only apps and editors that come with todays instruments
(often PC/MAC/Android are not supported) for these apps
So for just sheet music reading and browsing the internet..
Get a cheep android tablet. Or even better, a used ipad air or something that still supports the latest version of IOS.
Then you don't need all the phantastic features these latest ipadss and their apps have to offer
