Good quality, good price, bad shipping tho

Honestly I was really happy with the iPad. The one I got was RENEWED in Excellent quality. I will start off by saying that it was poorly packaged during shipping and the iPad box was severely damaged, but luckily my iPad was just fine. The iPad came decently, but not fully, charged and was quick and easy to set up. The battery life does not last as long as my Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, but I am also sure I do not have it optimized for battery saving. I got this iPad for 2 reasons. 1) To be a pseduo laptop with a keyboard case for school, and 2) procreate. I am overall happy with the item. I'm just sad I found a better deal on the exact same model sold at Walmart and its in pink (;-;). The item functions well, and is as described, it was a really good deal

I purchased it to program Harley. Pretty nice
Color: Silver, Memory Storage Capacity: 128 GB, Set name: Wi-Fi + Cellular
I've never had an Apple product before, the charging is slow, I love it because it's very light and durable I got it on sale So the value is very good. It's very thin also which I do like that and the collars are very bright and clear... I did drop it but from a low distance in the durability is great. Never damaged it a bit
