iPad Mini, iOS 9.3.2
Hey Michel, thank you so much for helping this community so much! Its insane, you're on EVERY apple discussion community. I have a question, could I have the link to the page you use to determine the iPad model you own. Im pretty sure I have a Gen 2 iPad mini stuck on iOS 9.3.5 but I wanna check it out. Who knows, Maybe I could sue apple for selling me an iPad gen 1 for the price of a gen 2!
Put your Apple serial number of your iPad Mini here.
Check Your Service and Support Coverage - Apple Support
Your serial number is location in the Settings app under the About panel.
To confirm your iPad Mini model, what is the model number listed on the backside of your iPad Mini?
ok, um its F4NJVECFF193.
That is not a number for an iPad
Look on the back of the iPad
The model number should begin with an A or with an M, NOT with an F.
Try again.
He gave you the serial number not the model, Try again AlexVice
You can also look in Settings->General->About->Model if its any easier.
The Number there should start with an M.

then its MD528LL/A
MD528LL/A = Gen 1 iPad Mini sorry mate, no IOS 10 support
so mine is ipad mini 2 of 1st gen. no wonder it started from 5th ios..ok guys tyvm. 😉
That is the number for a 1st gen iPad Mini, NOT a Mini 2 model.
The 1st gen iPad Mini is NOT compatible with iOS 10.
Its hardware and cpu (only 1 Ghz) is the same as the iPad 2 and 3 models (which are, also, not compatible with iOS 10, either) and is not a fast enough nor powerful enough to even run the basic functionalities of iOS 10.
The iPad 2, 3 and 1st gen iPad Mini all use 4 year old hardware.
Sorry.
Duplicate post.
There is no such thing as a iPad Mini 2, 1st gen.
It's iPad Mini 1st gen or iPad Mini 1
iPad Mini 2nd gen or iPad Mini 2
iPad Mini 3rd gen or iPad Mini 3
iPad Mini 4th gen or iPad Mini 4
Yours is an iPad Mini 1st generation or iPad Mini or iPad Mini 1.
No "2" name designation in your IPad Mini model.
Sorry.
