The Apple iPad 6th Gen Spotted Selling at Just Around $175 from Its Original $209.99 Listing

According to the story by Mashable, the Apple iPad 6th Gen edition's regular price is listed at $209.99 but for the refurbished version, buyers can purchase it at a significant 16% discount. The discounted device brings its price down to just $174.99.

The article described how the tablet could be great for those needing a portable and convenient device with a bigger screen. Some of the uses of the tablet include taking pictures with a bigger screen or doing simple things like watching movies or videos online.

Users can also use the tablet as a gift for children since the larger screen allows them to play games or watch educational videos or YouTube Kids and other child-friendly content. This comes as a more affordable alternative to a brand new iPad 6th Gen, which costs over $200.

The Refurbished Version of the Tablet Costs Way Less than Its Original $329 Price Tag for the Base Configuration

The refurbished version is on sale for just $174.99 and can easily be bought around different places without affecting the buyer's budget. As per Apple Wiki, the 6th Gen Apple iPad launched on March 27, 2018, and was discontinued on September 10, 2019.

Its list price for the base configuration started at $329 but now, buyers can get the device for significantly less. It was noted that with the high-res 9.7-inch Retina display, users will be able to watch videos or content even while on the go.

The iPad 6th Gen Comes with an 8 MP Camera and an Apple A10 Fusion Chip
