We all know the drill. As the overlords of the smartphone and tablet markets, the braintrust at Apple very seldom hold sales on their signature devices. So rather than spending almost $1,000 on a brand-new iPad Pro, the folks in Cupertino are instead giving you the opportunity to score one for about a third of that price instead.

Full disclosure: these factory refurbished, WiFi-enabled iPad Pros are returns that may come with some light scratches or other minor blemishes. But techs at Apple have certified that each and every unit has been fully tested and deemed 100 percent functional, perfectly matching all their original factory specs.

And this iPad Pro with a 9.7-inch LED-backlit IPS LCD touchscreen stands more than ready to handle just about any assignment you’ve got to throw at it.

The model sports an Apple A9X 64-bit SoC dual-core processor, powerful enough to rival those running most portable PCs. Along with 32GB of storage space, a four-speaker audio system, a 12-megapixel rear iSight camera for shooting images and even 4K video, a 5-megapixel forward-facing FaceTime HD camera, and faster wireless technologies, this tablet is more than up to your multi-tasking lifestyle.

The iPad Pro's display doesn’t disappoint either. Using a DCI-P3 color space, the iPad Pro display presents a wider color gamut than standard sRGB displays. In fact, the Retina Display delivers greater contrast, more uniform brightness, and improved energy efficiency through photo alignment technology, an oxide TFT panel, display lamination, an anti-reflective coating, and a variable refresh rate.
