Apple has began selling 2017-certified refurbished iPad 9.7-inch models from their online store. It is the first time they have done so in Australia with savings of up to 15% off. It comes as Apple has started selling refurbished MacBook Pro models with savings of up to more than A$600.
iPad
The 9.7-inch iPad was released earlier on in the year. It features a 9.7-inch Retina Display, fast performance, 10-hours of battery and runs iOS 11. Touch ID for Apple Pay and authentication, cameras and more is also built-in. When released, Apple pointed out it is the most affordable 9.7-inch iPad they have ever released – and still is.
It is now even more affordable with Apple now offering 14-15% off the RRP with Certified Refurbished models. The models, which are now available to buy start at just A$399. This is A$70 off the RRP and is based on a 32GB model with Wi-Fi connectivity. Savings get even bigger with the largest model, the 128GB Wi-Fi + Cellular at A$120 off.
Refurbished
Apple test and certify all Apple refurbished products before being sold. All models include a new outer shell and new battery therefore, will essentially look completely new. All models also come with 1-year warranty.
