TL;DR: This refurbished Apple iPad 6th Gen 9.7” 32GB with Accessories Bundle is just $249.99 as of March 27, which is 37% off its original price of $399.


The easiest way to stream videos on the go is with an iPad. Even larger iPhones can cause more strain to your eyes as you squint to focus on a smaller screen with smaller images. But this 9.7-inch tablet is the perfect size for on-the-go video viewing. Whether you're commuting, road tripping, or flying, you'll always have the entertainment you want right at your fingertips.

If you don't want to spend the dough on a brand-new iPad, this refurbished 6th generation iPad from 2018 is on sale for $149 off, knocking the price down to just $249.99. That's a fraction of the price of a new iPad or even a new iPhone.

The 2018 iPad was a major upgrade from the previous model. While it looked largely the same and carried a similar tech specs — like the 2048x1536 LED backlit retina display, big bezels, 7.5mm thickness, light 1-pound weight, first-generation Touch ID, 1.2-megapixel FaceTime HD camera on the front, and 8-megapixel camera rear — it also added one game-changing feature: Apple Pencil support. This allows everyone, not just expensive iPad Pro owners, to get in on precise drawing and writing on the iPad.  It also boasts faster performance and longer 10-hour battery life.

The model in question features WiFi connectivity only, which means you can only browse the internet if there's a connection nearby. But if you're looking to use it for streaming, you can always download your favorite Netflix shows and movies and watch them offline. There's also only 32GB of storage, which isn't terrible, but certainly won't allow you to download a ton of three-hour-long movies. Fortunately, though, that's what the iCloud is for.

A 6th Generation 9.7-inch iPad retails for $399, but you can snag a refurbished model in space gray or gold for just $249.99 — that's 37% in savings. There may be light scuffing on the bevel or case and light scuffing on the exterior of the iPad, but inside it'll run like new.
