I have a first generation iPad from 2010 that still works. It's on iOS 4 or something. We use it permanently plugged in as a photo slideshow thingy, and play Jetpack Joyride and Peggle on it a few days a week.

I keep expecting it to just not turn on one day soon, but it's still chugging along happily. I plugged it into a laptop and updated the photos on it a few months ago, with the expectation that doing so would have a fair chance of killing it for good, but it handled that happily too and kept on truckin'.

After 12 years I think I've had pretty good value for money out of it!
