What iPad for Roon Remote?

[4est]

Perhaps this is too basic of a question, but I am looking into purchasing an iPad to use as a Roon remote control. I have been using an iPhone XR for sometime, but it is a bit slow and more importantly the screen is too small for my aging(sigh) eyes. Although I wouldn't mind if it were useful for other things, all I really need is a reasonably good Roon remote control for a 5k+ album library with Qobuz service. There appears to be a lot of options via Newegg in the sub $300 range, which is about all I'd want to spend on a remote control. More than that and I'd consider using a stand alone AIO touchscreen, or simply a touch screen with a longer cable to my server. I have both available but would love something more mobile.

 

Any suggestions on what and where would be appreciated.

If the main purpose of the iPad is as a Roon remote, the basic 9.7 inch iPad will be fine. I have an older iPad Air 2, and it works as a remote with no issues. The only issue is not the iPad itself, but if you are sure it will be large enough for you. 

Well, I am not THAT blind, lol. Thanks Firedog, I just didn't want to purchase one and have it be so slow that I wouldn't use it.
