    Works great! Excellent to work with and easy to use. Long battery life. Has a very nice appearance and uses extremely little energy to charge and operate.

    I needed an extra iPad for my business but didn't need a brand new one so I opted for a pre-owned option through Best Buy and it works perfect! Great option for those looking to save a little money or don't need all the bells and whistles of a new one!

    Works very well. Screen had a few scratches and the battery has issues. It will work for what I need it for until I can buy a new one.

    The ipad arrived quickly and when my son with autism looked himself out of the device, the geek sqad associates quickly assisted with unlocking the ipad for us.

    There was a few scratches here and there but it runs nice so far. My biggest issue is that it charges extremely slow and dies extremely fast.

    I was somewhat hesitant to purchase a refurbished iPad Air 2 but I couldn't resist the price. The product arrived quickly and looked like new. It works great, no problems setting it up and using it. I'd do it again.

    Came in seemingly good condition until started using it then learned only 5g storage was useable as the system used rest of it. Then battery life was so terrible if you don't plug in iPad when it's at 50% it will die within the next 5 mins. Be weary before buying technology online

    DO NOT buy anything refurbished from here. I bought 3 of these iPads plus the 2 year protection plan for extra money. They were given to my grandkids for Christmas. They lasted about 3 months before the batteries completely gave out even when plugged into a charger. Went into a store to have them fixed and was told they were too old and there was nothing they could do for me. The nearest Best Buy to me is 4 hours away and they wouldn't handle the claim over the phone so I wasted a trip.
