This refurbished iPad Air is a good fit for work, school or just relaxing with your favorite show. It’s also on sale for only $169.99.

If you want a lightweight device for streaming, reading, video calls and work, an iPad is hard to beat. And while the newest models tend to come with a steep price tag, older generations offer an affordable alternative.

iPad Air refurbished: Is it worth it?

This Pad Air runs smoothly and holds up well for everyday use. This third-generation model is not yet vintage, and Apple still provides software updates and support.

The refurbished iPad Air uses the latest version of iPadOS (iPadOS 18), and should be able to run the free iPadOS 19 update that Apple will release in the fall. (However, it won’t run Apple Intelligence features, which require an M-series chip.)

The 10.5-inch Retina display looks sharp and colorful, whether you’re watching videos or scrolling through photos. It also comes with True Tone, which adjusts the display based on the light around you, so it always looks natural.

Inside, it runs on Apple’s A12 Bionic chip, which is more than enough power for multitasking, video calls, light gaming or catching up on emails. It packs 64GB of storage, so you can save plenty of apps, documents and downloads. The battery lasts up to 10 hours, so you won’t need to spend so much time hunting for an outlet.

Supports Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard

This refurbished iPad Air also supports the first-generation Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard. That’s great if you want to use it for drawing or getting work done on the go. While those accessories aren’t included, having the option adds flexibility.

If you need to snap a photo, the rear 8MP camera has your back. You can also join a call with the 7MP front-facing cam. This iPad comes with Wi-fi and Bluetooth, so you can get online and use your wireless headphones or easily send files between devices.

This iPad is marked down because it’s refurbished and a slightly older model. However, it’s in near-mint condition with a grade “A” rating, so there are virtually no signs of wear.

If you want a refurbished iPad Air, you don’t need to pay the high price to get one off the rack.
