Would USB 2.0 work? (iPad A16 (2025))

#1 · 20/06/2026, 02:02

Hi,

first of all, I am sorry if I am in the wrong forum. I am planning to get an iPad A16 (USB 2.0 480mbps) and was wondering if it would be possible to use Spacedesk wired.

If yes, would it be possible to full resolution + 60hz?

If not, does Spacedesk need USB 3? (5gbps?10gbps?40?) Would the speed change the rate of compression (if there is any at all)?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi @atn2949,

USB 2.0 should work with any configuration you set.
