Q: Does this iPad mini have Wi-Fi capabilities?
A: Yes, this iPad mini supports superfast Wi-Fi 6E.
A: Certified means it’s been “extra verified” by Best Buy geek squad workers. Like to make sure the battery works fully well, screen works well, and if not they fix it to like new. Doesn’t mean it will look brand new all the time, but that it will work like new. It’s a hit or miss, but generally a good process.
Q: What apple pen is compatible with this
A: It’s compatible with two Apple Pencil’s. One is the USB-C. And the other one is the Apple Pencil Pro. But I will highly suggest Apple Pencil Pro because it’s exclusive for the iPad mini and above iPad lineup. If too expensive, search for an open box! Like new but much more affordable!

Some Good & Bad
It was good but a bit more scuffed for my liking. But worth while if you’re searching for savings. Plus, great and easy return and customer service.
