Like everyone else i was skeptical about my purchase, since it wasn’t from apple. But upon delievry of the ipad, it cane in pretty good cosmetic condition. There were 2 scratches on the screen with no other blemishes around the body. I put a screen protector on right away and the scratches are almost non exsistent. The biggest complaint i have is the battery health, it came in at 90%. Ill have to get a new battery somehwere down the line. But not a huge deal i suppose. Overall im happy with the purchase and im glad i took the chance on it.

I was a little hesitant at first as 'refurbished' usually gets a bad name. I decided to give it a try, and could always use the return policy if i didn't like it.
- I purchased this online, and had it shipped to my local store.
- I received notice that it was ready for pickup a day earlier than what I was told (which was nice as it was on a Friday).
- Upon inspection, the only imperfection I noticed was a small blemish on the lower left corner of the screen next to the bezel. This is not noticeable while using. The housing, and cameras were all scratch free.
- Using Battery Stats, Battery health capacity was at 95%
- Original box/charger were not included, but it did come with an Insignia 30W USB-C Compact Wall Charger, and Insignia 7ft USB-C Cable which is perfect.
Overall, I am extremely satisfied, and will no longer think twice about purchasing refurbished from Best Buy!

Very pleased! As another person shared, had I not known I wouldn’t be able to tell it was refurbished. I have not had a single problem and it arrived in great condition.

The iPad arrived on time. It had several scratches on the screen. Since it was Geek Squad Certified Refurbished, I thought it would be in considerably better condition - at least screen would be in good condition. Since it was in such terrible condition, I returned it.
This is an official Geek Squad® Certified Refurbished Product. Checklist
Display and casing are inspected to be in like-new condition
I guess that item was missed on this iPad.

Got this as a replacement for my iPad Pro 2018 after shattering the screen. Even though it’s renewed it looks brand new. The M1 chip is definitely quite the upgrade!

I recently purchased a certified refurbished iPad, expecting it to be in excellent condition as advertised. However, I was extremely disappointed when it arrived with significant damage. The screen had deep scratches, and the body showed visible dents and scuffs.
For a product labeled as "certified," I expected a much higher standard. It’s frustrating to receive a device that is clearly not up to the mark, especially when paying a premium for what should have been a reliable and well-inspected product. I would urge potential buyers to be cautious and to thoroughly check their items upon receipt. This experience has certainly made me hesitant to purchase refurbished products from here.

It works great and looks good but there is a dent/scratch on the top corner. It doesn’t bother me much though.

It was great to be able to buy a product I had been waiting for for a long time at a good price!! Of course, I was a little disappointed at first because there were several scratches, but after using it, it didn't bother me too much, so I'm glad I did!

I haven’t try how it works yet but the ipad is damaged. The charger is not original as well. It looks like used ipad than refurbished I expected.

My iPad stopped charging, so I needed to get a replacement quick as I would only be in the States for a few days. Ordered this one online and it promised two day delivery and got to me before the proposed day. iPad itself is just as if new. 100% recommend Geek Squad refurbished!

I ordered a fifth generation, iPad Pro, 256 gig. I received a fourth generation pro one terabyte storage. It was in excellent condition. The battery was behaving oddly. It would drop 5% or so just sitting there for an hour not using it. it seemed to stabilize after using it for a few days. I felt the battery did not last as long as I thought it would with the amount of use that I had with it. Shipping was great. I ended up returning it for fear of the battery condition.

I gave my Wife my 2018 11’ iPad Pro and sold her 6th iPad. So I have been shopping around for a decently priced iPad 12.9 inch Pro. I came across this model on Best Buy online but it kept going out of stock. I was finally able to purchase one right before it was unavailable again. It doesn’t come with a box but at $699 I couldn’t pass it up. It looks brand new and I’m absolutely enjoying it. Definitely didn’t need a brand new one or the newer model.

I happened upon this item for around $650. I felt like it was a great deal. It is not the M2 but I use it for going paperless at work so no issues for me there. Great deal for refurbished and it was like new. It will not be covered u see total tech and you have a week to get AppleCare.

Was surprise with the quality even though this is a refurbished product. It came just with the iPad, no charger. But for the price, i will not argue and i can just us my available charger anyway. Minimal scratch on the screen and the body but after putting a tempered glass and protective case, it looks almost brand new. Will definitely but geek squad certified products. And you can always return to store if you are not satisfied with your item.

M1 chip is everything you ever need on an ipad

M1 Ipad pro is everything you ever need on an ipad and more.
M1 ipad pro is best in class. Beautiful and bright display. 12.9 sometimes feels a little too heavy to carry around holding it. Huge steal for this open box price.
Very handy for traveling use as a laptop replacement.
