Really good! I needed a mini to replace my original mini from when they first came out, served me brilliantly but just too slow for the music software I use as there hadn’t been an update for years! I also needed an iPad with a 3.5mm headphone jack, I have two new larger iPads that are for general Use and as I say this mini is for a specific use. Condition was really great not a scratch and works perfectly with my software after update to the latest IOS which was a surprise considering this is a 2019 iPad! Shout out to Apple for still supporting this iPad. Would recommend Backmarket to anyone if this is the quality they supply! 👏👏 Happy customer Barry.

The Ipad Mini arrived not in a box, but well padded jiffy bag. The Ipad was in very good condition, with only a few faint scratches to the screen (barely noticeable, and do not distract at all). I'm very happy with the service and product and would say the condition was better than good. I highly recommend BackMarket for purchasing refurbished Apple products.

What can I say? The iPad Mini is great and the service was exceptional. As I recall, it arrived the day after I ordered it. I paid a little more for the best condition, and it looks new. Works a treat and it's just what I was after. Full marks. I'll be back!

My wife loves it. The old iPad mini 2ng gen was starting to show its age, bought from new it has been amazing. The new IPad mini is amazing. Not the first piece of tech I have bought from Back Market so it’s 5 stars from me.

I've purchased it for iOS music apps and whilst it's a steep learning curve,I've had mixed results ( good and bad )and feel I should have purchased a larger and more powerful I pad but that can happen once I've got used to the change from Hardware Synths to Software. some of the instrument sounds are truly exceptional! whether the mini 5 is up to the task, remains to be seen, but that's irrelevant.I got a good deal.a smart iPad in great order with good battery life and I'm happy with the deal.

First time ordering from here. The iPad arrived tracked and on time and very well packaged. The condition was much better than fair and it has been working beautifully. Will use this company again.
