    Everything I wanted in a bigger iPhone. Love playing games and reading with the larger screen; and the ability to switch safari pages in between the iPhone and iPad rocks!

    non-working, non-fixable iPad

    It’s a non-working, non-fixable expensive piece of junk. I want my money back. I bought a Certified Refurbished Apple iPad Mini (4th Generation) (2015) - 128GB - Silver from you online. We could not get it to work. A Geek Squad guy couldn’t get it to work either. The Geek Squad guy did the best he could. IPad could not be loaded with new software to make it work. I want my money back for the iPad, the Geek Squad service - the whole amount - I cannot afford to lose over $170. The store was no help, since I ordered it online. So apparently what it comes down to is - I bought a piece of junk for about $130, plus tax, etc. not including the Geek Squad that I'm stuck paying for a year of a service I can't use. This is extremely unfair and upsetting - a very expensive lesson in never buying anything from Best Buy again - especially online.

    I like it a lot. Lots more memory and faster processing than my current model. Replacement device for older slower tech.

    I purchased the Ipad mini for my daughter's 17th birthday. She wanted the mini for certain games she plays online with friends. There is a fair amount of storage on the mini 4 which is great for a teenager

    Came in great condition. If you are trying to buy as a Christmas gift you should start looking for refurbished no later than the first week of November. The refurbished sell out fast the closer you get to Christmas.
