If you've been waiting to grab an iPad, now's a good time to do so, as Apple is offering 15 to 17 percent discounts on the fourth-gen iPad and its smaller sibling, the iPad mini. However, the discount offered is on the refurbished iPad 4 and iPad mini and has been done in an attempt to push sales of the refurbished Apple products.
The discounted prices are valid at Apple's online stores and are applicable for all the variants of the iPad 4 and iPad mini.
With the new price reduction in place, consumers can now pick up the 16GB and 32GB variants of the Wi-Fi iPad mini for $249 and $359, respectively, which is a discount of 15 and 16 percent. If the 64GB version of the Wi-Fi iPad mini has taken your fancy, then be prepared to shell out $346, which is a 17 percent discount.
On the other hand, if you prefer the 9.7-inch iPad 4 to its 7.9-inch sibling, then fret not, as Apple has discounted the former as well. You can avail a discount of 16 percent on the 16GB and 32GB variants of the iPad 4, which now cost $419 and $499, respectively. If you're looking for more storage, then the 64GB version would be more up your alley and will cost $579 (17 percent discount).
In case you're wary about purchasing a refurbished iDevice, Apple has you covered for a one-year and what's more, apart from the year-long warranty, the tablets come with a new battery. Apple also tests and certifies all its products and, therefore, consumers can rest easy.
Apple launched its iPad 4 and iPad mini in Oct. 2012. The refurbished models of both the popular tablets made their way to Apple's online store this March and were priced modestly when compared to the new units. However, the 128GB variant of the iPad 4 that was released in February this year is yet to show up on the refurbished store.
