    very capable tablet, however due to apple's tactics, it is now completely and utterly overshadowed by the new model. The lower ram, storage, and inability to use AI, would make you think that this tablet should be much much cheaper than the newly released replacement, but it isn't so. I would definitely buy the new model unless the mini 6 is on an insane deal.

    Problems with refurbished iPad Mini.

    Refurbished mini shows plenty of abuse in the form of dirty marks and scratches on the bank. But the scratches don't bother me. The reason I'm going to return it and exchange for a new one is that periodically the screen freezes when I try to change my child's Screen Time. I'm forced to reboot 3 or 4 times for the Screen Time to work. At first I thought this would go away after the first few incidents. But now a month after the purchase it continues to recur. Lessons learned - no more refurbished iPads!

    Awesome tablet! It is just the right size for me! I bought it refurbished, so it doesn’t hold its charge for as long as it could. However, it’s enough to get me through my day!

    Does what it said it would do. The inventory sticker on the back was a pain to remove (needed gentle, repeated soaking and scraping).

    …unless you have the items shipped to a store and you open them in front of an employee. I ordered two of these iPads. One came with an Insignia USB-C cable and an Apple USB-C power adapter. The other came with an Insignia USB-C to Lightning cable and no power adapter. I contacted customer support. They told me to go to a store. I went to a store (expecting to have the problem resolved) and they tried to sell me the correct accessories. A manager got involved said this was “a warehouse issue” that Geek Squad “just throws-in whatever is available” that they “dont give out free cables” and that I could return the product(s). The refurbished product’s page states what is included. Best Buy does not want to ship/give me those items. They wanted over $30.00 for them. I’m buying the accessories from Anker on Amazon (and never shopping Best Buy again.)

    The iPad is good for my schooling in aviation! I feel as if I didn’t get a good deal considering my iPad has a dent in the back and it’s kinda worrisome considering I use this iPad for flying. It could be an issue in the future but right now it’s doing just fine. The shipping was the next day which I liked a lot because originally it was going to be shipped a week prior to when I ordered.
