ipad was flawless and performed as new. The only issue was it’s not supported by Apple updates anymore and you can’t download a lot of the popular apps. The weather channel, Hulu, Netflix just to name a few don’t work on iPad 4 or older models anymore.

Great buy and received fast. I did have to replace the charges with real Apple chargers because they would not power up completely.

The battery dies really fast. It does not support the latest Apple updates. This makes it so it does not support a lot of apps such as Netflix etc.

Purchased as a starter iPad for my 7 year old and it works perfectly. Very gently used. Almost appears brand new. The replacement charger that was provided is crap. It’s not Apple and broke very next day. If purchasing this I would recommended getting an Apple Charger as well.

I purchased this iPad Air (1st Generation) for my 3 year old daughter to have, so that she would surrender my brand new iPad back to me. I product looks very, very close to new and works like a charm. I am happy with my purchase.

This was a present for my son. It had more scratches then I expected but you couldn’t see them after I put it in its protective cover. Problem was two days after he started using it the battery would not stay charged. It had to remain plugged up for him to use it, so we returned it and just bought a new one. I wouldn’t recommend buying a refurbished iPad, you get what you pay for.

I have a lot of issues with this iPad I bought it for my daughter but the fact that it’s an old Model it come with a lot of problems. The battery dies fast and while charging the iPad gets hot. It’s not worth buying them at all for the price they sell them
