Apple Store Refurbished Ipad Review

There was some confusion on my part activating my new iPad so I called Apple support and though the tech was very earnest, she couldn't solve my trouble. After a long time on the call, she passed me to a senior tech who brusquely said the iPad was defective and send it back to the seller (!?). I did get an appointment to visit Apple store to see genius for the following day. The next morning I decide to call Apple support one more time. That tech knew exactly what the problem was and had the iPad activated in minutes. He also sent me some links to user guides for the iPad. So an hour trip to the Apple store wasn't needed after all.

Under AppleCare+, when you take your iPad into an Apple Store for repair, they will either repair or replace it on the spot. In the case of a broken screen (which is what I have had in most instances), they will charge a relatively small deductible, and voila, in short order, you either will have a repaired device (if that is possible) or a new one.

I went to the Apple Store and they had no iPad minis in stock nor did the next closest Apple Store. I went on line and found B&H had them in stock and they shipped it the next day. Same price as Apple and the new one is very good. Great product and great service from B&H.

Everybody knows that apple ipad is well THE APPLE iPAD. No surprises. It took me several hours to get used to the new swipe and lack of old home button. Got extra annoyed with the lack of choices for cases and swore when I couldn't use my old gen 1 apple pen. Blah blah blah. . . The most important thing in the whole ipad purchase is how much I love b&h. As you are getting bigger, don’t lose the personal touch!

Great price for apple care, normally $$at the Apple Store.

cheaper than buying at the apple store.

This case is much better than the one Apple makes for this ipad. the pen stays better.

I purchased a refurbished 15 Macbook Pro from Apple and did not get the Apple Care warranty with the computer. This place has the best price and saved me $100 on the agreement price. It registered with no issues. I can tell you that it is rare that Apple stuff goes bad but when it does, you will be glad you got this. I am not sure how BH does it, but glad they do. If I am ever in the market for a new Macbook in the future, I will shop here first.

Quick shipping, and a lot less than buying from Apple. I used it for my new refurbished Apple Macbook Pro 15 which I bought from Apple a few weeks ago!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am reviewing this in comparison to the Apple Magic Keyboard which I already had. I like that case protects the corners and you don’t have to take it out of the main casing to use the iPad without the keyboard. The keyboard easy detaches. The main negative to the Apple keyboard is you have to have the kickstand out to use it like a laptop which is harder to do if you have it on your lap vs a table top. The Apple one uses tension. However, the Apple one cannot go 360 degrees like the Logitech can. Both feel equal quality and keyboards are comfortable. I would say, if you want versatility and durability, then the Logitech wins out. If you are looking to use the iPad as more of a laptop, then the Apple magic keyboard takes it.
