    It is a good Ipad!! I have a pink ipad air 5th gen and it is amazing. I use it for notes for school as well with watching shows and stuff while working in homework. I had to buy one for my mom and sister… lol. If you’re debating in getting one for school this is your sign to get it, it’s very useful!

    Powerful iOS upgrade from my gen 1 iPad Pro. New pencil “2” works great for annotating/grading papers my students turn in on Canvas. Handwriting recognition works amazingly well, so much I don’t need a keyboard, I can just scribble in text boxes for written commenting. Didn’t need cellular as I have a cell plan with hotspot to use on the road. WiFi 6 works well too. Very happy.

    I was pleasantly surprised that "refurbished" in this case meant next to nothing. Not so much as a scratch anywhere on this iPad, and it works perfectly. Apparently some people trade in iPads as often as they trade in iPhones.

    This purchase is good value for money and suitable for the current economic situation. However, I have not yet fully tested the system at 100%. For example, I haven’t watched movies or YouTube videos for more than 20 minutes yet, as my main usage so far has been reading PDF files, using ChatGPT, and browsing Facebook. Thank you for providing the price history since 2022.

    The iPad’s condition was pretty good the only issue was that it had minor scratches. My biggest issue was that I thought it was going to come inside an Apple iPad box and it did not. The iPad came in a regular box wrapped in bubble wrap and also came with an android charger. If I didn’t buy this as a gift it would be great overall!

    Overall, very nice deal, especially considering the price and no visible damage. But I did have a problem with charging, I need to bring it to the Apple store to fix the charging issue.

    Solid performance – It uses the A14 Bionic chip, which delivers very good performance for browsing, streaming, gaming, multitasking. Reviewers found that even “heavy casual” use is smooth. Good battery life – In testing, it lasted around 10–11 hours of continuous web use. Great for everyday tasks – Given your workflow (gaming community, documents, spreadsheets, Discord, etc), this tablet is very capable: for watching streams, playing mobile games, running apps, and using it on the move it ticks many boxes.

    The iPad Air is fast, lightweight, and easy to use. The screen looks great for watching videos, gaming, and schoolwork, and it runs apps smoothly without lag. It’s easy to carry around and the battery lasts all day. Overall, it’s a great tablet that does a little bit of everything really well. I love it.

    I bought this iPad to be more productive, and it has not disappointed. I saved a ton of money buying it refurbished, and I use it everyday, all day. I got the pencil with it and that too is perfect. It’s good as new, and I haven’t seen any signs of previous use!

    The M1 iPad Air has gotten so cheap that it makes no sense not to buy. Combined with the awards from my BestBuy Plus, I got this iPad refurbished for a little under $300 and it arrived basically brand new. It's fast enough to handle anything I can throw at it and more! Very satisfied!

    Purchased for my 17 yr old son for xmas. Works great, and a big improvement upon his old iPad, and even his old MacBook. Opted for lower storage, will hook up external drive.
