# Budget-Friendly Renewed iPad Pro Offers: An Intelligent Choice for Tech Lovers
A recent dive into Apple bargains on Amazon uncovered a fascinating pattern: premium iPad Pros, particularly the 12.9-inch variants, can be snagged at surprisingly reasonable prices. For example, M1 variants featuring 1TB of storage and cellular options are available for less than $700. With the recent update of iPadOS 26, which improves the iPad’s features to mirror those of a Mac, these offers deserve your attention.
## Renewed M1 iPad Pro Offers
Amazon’s refurbishment initiative, “Amazon Renewed,” provides a selection of pre-owned, cleaned, and tested gadgets at attractive rates, alongside a 90-day return guarantee for any problems. The M1 iPad Pro models, released in 2021, came with noteworthy advancements, such as Thunderbolt compatibility, a 12MP front-facing ultra-wide camera equipped with Center Stage, 5G support, and a mini-LED screen on the 12.9-inch models, termed “Liquid Retina XDR,” which can achieve up to 1600 nits of peak brightness.
As these models continue to age, exceptional bargains have surfaced. For those contemplating storage alternatives, a 1TB option is advisable due to its 16GB of RAM, in contrast to the 8GB found in models with 512GB and less storage. Current pricing includes:
– 128GB for $529
– 256GB for $549
– 512GB for $569
While discounts on 11-inch models are not as attractive, they remain available for interested buyers.
## Renewed M2 iPad Pro Offers
The M2 iPad Pro closely resembles the M1 variant, with the main difference being compatibility with Apple Pencil hover, providing users with an indication of where the Apple Pencil will contact the screen for greater accuracy. The M2 model also accommodates the newer Wi-Fi 6E standard.
If the Apple Pencil hover capability intrigues you, or if you are in search of a newer iPad without breaking the bank, the M2 iPad Pro is a reliable choice. Nonetheless, enticing offers on 11-inch M2 models are currently limited. All listed units are in top-notch condition and include a 90-day return policy.
For those in need of a keyboard and trackpad case for their new 12.9-inch iPad Pro, the Logitech Combo Touch is an excellent match at $129.99.
## Renewed iPad Air Offers
While this discussion centers on the M1 and M2 iPad Pros, it’s also important to note the more recent iPad Air models, which incorporate these chipsets as well. Though there are trade-offs in display quality, connectivity, and audio, choosing an iPad Air can result in substantial savings. The iPad Air models are available in a range of colors, enhancing their attractiveness.
Currently, no significant deals exist on renewed M2 iPad Air models.
## Conclusion
The cost-effectiveness of these renewed iPad devices is noteworthy. While the allure of the latest models is strong, selecting a renewed gadget can lead to considerable financial savings while still delivering outstanding performance. For reference, a new M4 13-inch iPad Pro with 1TB of storage and 16GB of RAM retails for around $1699, whereas an older M2 model with identical specifications can be purchased for just $759—almost a thousand dollars less for a still highly efficient device.
For those uninterested in renewed iPads, there are also current promotions on new models.
