    I didn't want to pony up for a new Ipad mini so gave this refurbished unit a try. Much faster than my aging IPad mini. Batter life could be better.

    This is the first refurbished iPad I have ever bought. It’s very lightweight and that’s the reason I chose a refurbished one. The new ones are heavier/bulky. But when I got the iPad, I took it home and there was not a scratch on it, And the battery which was the most important thing to me lasted a long time. Perhaps they/Best Buy replaced the battery. at any rate, it was in like new condition. I ordered two of them. This is actually the first refurbished item I’ve ever gotten from Best Buy and from now on I will not be afraid to go with a refurbished unit.

    My son uses as a communication device so breaking them happens quite often. I decided to get a refurbished model so it would be easier on my wallet. I was absolutely surprised with the condidtion of the iPad mini. It looks brand new out of the box. Have not had sny issues with device since i purchased. I will continue to buy refurbished any time he breaks. Highly recommend buying!!!

    Light weight & small enough to carry in a crossbody bag. 64 gig seems to be good, so far, for social media & streaming. Holds a charge.
