Refurbished condition makes this iPad mini cost-effective
How is this iPad mini so affordable? It’s refurbished. That means it was purchased somewhere around its original 2013 model year and used before undergoing a stringent refurbishment process, including full inspection and cleaning.
If gifting a pre-owned iPad feels odd, you should know that this model was given the highest-quality rating possible, with an "A" grade. That means you can expect the iPad mini to be in near-mint condition with very minimal to zero scuffs or scratches.
Gifting refurbished devices as opposed to new ones also has environmental benefits. Help out your wallet and the planet while surprising a friend or loved one with a new-to-them iPad mini.
