I am extremely happy with my purchase! Although it's a used device, it arrived in brand new condition—not a single scratch on it. I checked the battery, and it had only been charged 4 times. It works perfectly and was definitely worth every penny. The delivery was also super fast! Great for my pocket and better for the planet!

I bought last year’s model (2025) refurbished, but it had a band new battery, it looked and felt like new and I saved 23% on compared to buying new. For my needs/uses I do not need the latest iPad, so was this was ideal

Although the original ipad had a fault it was replaced within 3 days. The return procedure of the faulty iPad was extremely easy. Great service all round, will definitely use again 👍

The item was in excellent condition as expected , initially I couldn’t get used to the on off button being the fingerprint recognition. I’m still having trouble but getting better, obviously that is down to apple not Back Market , who as always have provided an excellent service.

As new - so easy to set up and has been used every day since its arrival! Fantastic for what I need including training for an Ironman on Zwift! Sadly my old one is so old that it cannot be exchanged but I am working on trying to use it for recipes or as a photo stand… always plugged in of course! I really support the reuse of tech so the precious metals are not wasted - you do a great job, please keep it up!

The iPad Air (2025, M3 series) lands as Apple’s newest mid-range tablet, blending the crisp design and premium touches of the Air family with a power boost courtesy of the M3 chip. Released alongside the 2025 iPad Pro, it's a refreshing update that’s one generation ahead, but still shares plenty of practical essentials with its predecessor. With an 11-inch display and all the latest iPadOS features straight out of the box, this iPad Air targets users who want something speedy without stepping straight into Pro territory.

Key features:

Release Date: May 2025
Display: 11-inch Liquid Retina display (2360×1640 px), True Tone and P3 wide colour
Processor: Apple M3 chip with 8-core CPU and 10-core GPU
Rear Camera: 12MP wide camera with Smart HDR and 4K video recording
Front Camera: 12MP ultra-wide landscape camera with Centre Stage
Build: Aluminium enclosure, slim profile, Touch ID on top button
Operating System: Ships with iPadOS 18

Who is this for?

The iPad Air (2025, M3 series) is for anyone who wants a capable, modern tablet for work, learning, or play. It’s particularly well-suited to students juggling note-taking and streaming, digital artists using the latest Apple Pencil, or on-the-go professionals who need enough speed for multitasking. Compared to the iPad Pro, you get most of the same performance for less weight (in every sense). If you’re not fussed about Face ID or ultra-premium screens, this Air covers the important stuff—now with enough power for creative and productivity tasks that would have been impossible on older models.

Pros & Cons:

Pros	Cons
M3 chip keeps multitasking smooth (finally, no more excuses when streaming and sketching at the same time).	No mini-LED or OLED display—still a Liquid Retina panel, so not as punchy as the iPad Pro's top screen.
Landscape front camera is ideal for video calls—looks like Apple finally noticed how we hold tablets.	Still no Face ID; Touch ID is reliable but old habits die hard.
Lightweight build is easy to carry for commuting or travel.	No camera upgrades beyond last generation, but covers everyday needs.
