Pros & Cons
Pros
Bought for my 8 year old grandson. Gave my old one to the grandkids. Would not go sailing without it. Bought for my granddaughter.
As newer gen ipads rollout, some of these older gens are great for kiddos at a lower cost. Would recommend over the more expensive newest version.
It's very durable and the weight is so nice and feels great when you’re holding it. Its a13 chip really shines, super fast performance and battery life is insane. It is still solid and gets the job done for browsing, the occasional game, and videos.
Cons
Display is lcd and won't stand up to magnification. The ipad just freezes or will not allow you to make it to the next screen. Can not activate.
Do not buy a refurbished ipad from amazon. Don't trust anything sold by amazon resale/warehouse. Contemplating returning it.

On top of that it cannot be covered under warranty.
Price
The price is right, and this does everything that i need it to do.
Brand new ipad 9 was a great price to replace my ipad 7 that suddenly died and not able to bring it back.
But if you understand that going in, it's a great product at a great price.
I didn’t spend the same amount of money on new, so it was a nice surprise the price i paid.

Packaging/appearance
Came in really great condition, i would’ve thought it was new had i not purposefully bought a refurbished product:)
Competitiveness
I looked around at similar options from other makers (probably spent way too much time!
The 10th gen is a better product, but if you can choose one of these for at least $80-100 less than the 10th gen, get a 9th gen.

It does basically everything the more expensive ipads do at a very low barrier to entry especially for an apple product

I purchased this after reading online that it was a solid deal for what you get but there are for sure faster ipads that are similar pricing
