This iPad mini’s thin design and 4G capabilities could make it an asset for digital nomads or frequent travelers. Just plug in your SIM card, and you’ve got a work platform you can use almost anywhere. You can also connect Bluetooth peripherals like a keyboard and Magic TrackPad if you prefer a laptop-like experience. 

This tablet can provide up to nine hours of runtime off a single charge, which should be just enough to last an entire workday. Additionally, it features an 8MP rear-facing camera and a 1.2MP FaceTime camera for snapping quick photos and tuning into Zoom meetings.

Buying refurbished doesn’t mean settling for less. This tablet received a « B » grade, meaning the only signs it isn’t brand new are minor, superficial scratches and scuffs on the case. The internals will run just fine, but if the blemishes bother you, this iPad also comes with an accessory kit for hiding those rough spots. You’ll receive a snap-on case to hide the scratches and prevent new ones from appearing. The kit also comes with a tempered glass screen protector, a UL-certified wall charger, a Lightning cable, and even the original Apple Box.
