I'm happy with my purchase of the refurbished 2019 iPad mini with 256gb of storage. It really is the perfect size and the screen quality is great. I bought a $30 pen that works with the mini pad and a new a/c cord because the one that was shipped wasn't the original Apple a/c cord, but similar. Please with my purchase.

The iPads works perfectly! There is a small spot where the pixels are burnt out slightly and are brighter than the others, but it's honestly so unnoticeable and is probably to be expected shopping refurbished. I'm absolutely in love and have been drawing to my heart's content!

I was feeling skeptical about ordering this as my son’s Christmas gift. So, I gave it a try and ordered 2 iPads. But this one came within 4 days of placing the order. I’am still waiting for my other one to be shipped. I am very happy with my purchase, and not bad for being refurbished.

The iPad is in very good condition and works fine. All my iPads have been refurbished and all seemed to lose battery charge very quickly . I don’t know if this is true of new iPads. It does not get worse over time.

I have purchased the refurbished iPads from Back Market before and they have always been great. I recently bought two of these for my grandchildren and they are awesome! They are in great condition and have a wonderful battery life. I highly recommend purchasing refurbished from Back Market!

I've been looking for an iPad for a while and a friend told me about this site. The prices were better than other refurbished items elsewhere. I ordered this one and it arrived very quickly and was easy to set up - no issues at all. I've been using it for a few days and battery life is going well. I am very happy with my purchase and will order more items from this site in the future.

So far everything about the iPad seems to be as promised. It looks to be in perfect condition which is better than I was expecting and the charging cord that they sent works. I am not a fan of buying electronics online, especially not refurbished, but BackMarket is definitely worth a try!!

As my old B&N Nook became extinct, I looked around for a new reading device. I realized that for about the same amount of money, I could order a refurbished iPad from BackMarket rather than buy a new Nook or Kindle. I was surprised at the mint condition of the iPad, and I now use it daily. I've read my first book and am starting number 2 tomorrow.

At Back Market, customers save 30-70% off compared to the price of new on certified refurbished iPads. The best part is, you don't have to sacrifice performance quality in order to save money; all refurbished devices on our marketplace have been fully reconditioned, cleaned, inspected and tested to the same standards as a new one. This is the biggest difference between buying a used or pre-owned iPad compared to a refurbished one.
Buying a renewed iPad is also a much friendlier environmental option. Refurbished iPads are often second-hand devices that have been restored and updated to meet the manufacturer's standards, which means you'll be helping to keep old iPads out of our landfills, reduce electronic waste, and minimize your carbon footprint.
If you need more help deciding on your next purchase, check out our top refurbished iPad picks.
You'll find the biggest selection, highest product quality and lowest prices on restored iPads at Back Market. That's because we specialize specifically in refurbished tech and take the time to carefully vet every seller on our marketplace to ensure customers are getting reliable devices that perform like-new. We have hundreds of refurbished iPads to choose from with price ranges to fit almost anyone's tablet budget.
Staying true to our brand, we're also a huge advocate for environmental change. In fact, at the beginning of 2023, we hit a milestone for preventing 1 million tons of carbon emission (CO2e) from entering the atmosphere. You can help contribute to a better circular economy when you shop iPad deals on our platform.
All iPad purchases on Back Market come with free standard shipping, a 1-year warranty, and a 30-day money-back guarantee. We want to make sure you can shop with confidence and find the best iPad for your needs at lower prices.
If you're a first time refurbished buyer, you might not be sure what to expect from your purchase. First, understand that your iPad may have external cosmetic flaws depending on the condition you choose (Back Market offers devices of Fair, Good and Excellent quality). However, whatever the condition, any external blemishes will not affect the performance of your iPad and you can expect your device to perform as if it were newly opened directly from the Apple Store. You should also be confident that your iPad is backed by a 1-year warranty, meaning in the rare case that any defects arise (outside of accidental damage) within 12 months of your delivery date, then you're entitled to your choice of a repair, replacement or reimbursement.
If you already have an iPad that you're looking to replace, consider trading it into Back Market to give you a little extra budget for your next tablet upgrade. We make the process simple for you and we'll give you a free online quote when you answer a few easy questions about your current iPad.
