    The battery dies SO fast and this was sent to me with a charger that was NOT an apple charger. It won’t charge the iPad anymore - says the accessory is not supported. Not worth the $ and wish I would have saved for a new one.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I was kind of skeptical at first being that it was a previous used product. I received it and you can’t tell it was previously used. It has no cosmetic damage what so ever. I have loved it since the moment I took it out the box. It did come with charger cable
