    Great Price... But I didn't realize that this was an early gen device with an OS that is not upgradeable. No use for me at that point.

    Outdated and Not Worth It

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Apple generally makes great products. However, I recommend against buying devices more than a few years old from Best Buy. I didnt get the protection plan because I figured they checked out the tablet before putting it for sale. Well I was greatly mistaken. The screen was not always responsive and hence the unit froze and jumped around by itself. Best Buy gave me no options not even an exchange reduced price. I also bought a case that I think I am also eating. Dont do it. Just buy a new one instead.
