A super portable way to work
This iPad mini 4 has a grade “B” refurbished rating, which means it may have some light scuffing or scratches on the body, but it also comes with a snap-on case to cover those right up. A tempered glass screen protector is already installed to keep the 7.9-inch HD retina display safe.
Work or play almost anywhere with this compact tablet. The Apple A8 chip and 2GB RAM primes this little tablet for multitasking or some serious work. 64GB of local storage should give you plenty of room for locally saved files. Install a few productivity apps and you might not even need a WiFi connection to get your work done.
An AC adapter and Lightning cable are included, but you may not have to look too hard for an outlet when you’re out and about. The battery could last for up to 10 hours on a single charge.
Snap photos in stunning resolution using the 8MP rear-facing camera, or video chat with a friend using the 1.2MP FaceTime front-facing camera(opens in a new tab). And that’s all on a tablet that weighs barely more than half a pound.
