You can sit around and wait for the iPad you want to go on sale, but knowing Apple, you could be waiting a while and still never get the deal you’re hoping for. If you’re really looking to save money, your best bet is to snag a refurbished iPad instead.
This 10.2-inch 8th generation iPad from 2020 will only cost you $379.99 when you opt for a refurbished device. That’s $49 off the usual price tag.
Introduced in September 2020, the 8th generation iPad is powered with the Apple A12 Bionic Chip, which is 40 percent faster and offers graphics that are twice as fast as the previous version. Its 10.2-inch display is the perfect size to slip into your backpack or in your kids’ luggage as they travel to keep them entertained.
It operates on iPadOS 14, so you can take advantage of some of the fun features like “Scribble,” which converts handwritten notes into text and Smart Selection, which uses on-board machine learning to detect handwritten notes from drawings. It also takes HD photos and videos, thanks to its 8MP back camera and 1.2MP FaceTime camera, and packs a 10-hour battery life.
While there’s only 32GB of built-in storage, you can always sign up for iCloud to keep all of your files and photos locked in Apple’s vault or look into other cloud storage options to save some money.
Refurbished and approved with a letter grade “A,” this iPad should arrive in near-mint condition, with minimal to zero amounts of scratching or scuffing on the exterior of the device. You can choose from your choice of space gray or gold. Both are on sale for just $379.99, down from the original cost of $429.
