Needless to say, the Apple iPad is a wonderful tablet that lets you watch YouTube and Netflix on a glorious 10.2-inch screen without disturbing anyone around you; sketch or create a spreadsheet and manuscript without limiting yourself to a robust laptop; and makes your web browsing smooth.
However, it goes without saying that, for all the things the iPad can do for you, many of the accessories you need to make all of these good things happen – including, unbelievably, a keyboard, pen and even headphones – it doesn’t actually come with the iPad itself. And if you want them directly from Apple, you’ll have to shell out a lot of money – Apple’s wireless headphones alone reach $ 550! The idea!
But there is a better way. QVC is offering the complete Apple iPad with all the accessories you need to get the most out of this world-renowned tablet. And the retailer just cut $ 458 in price, dropping that beauty from $ 938 (if purchased separately) to madly low $ 480. That’s – wait for it –almost 50 percent off.
And that incredible price comes with an incredible range of extras. In addition to the wireless headphones mentioned earlier, you will receive a pair of headphones. You’ll also find a lightning-to-USB-C cable and USB-C power adapter, Bluetooth keyboard and pen, a neoprene cover, a tablet stand (which comes in fun color combinations, such as Gold and Rose Gold, Silver and Blue Marble, Space Gray and Leopard and more) and a cleaning cloth in the box. Unbelievable, huh? If it were a film, it would be a successful sequel called The Apple iPad: fully charged.
Are you intrigued, but not sure if you want to put $ 458 on your credit card this minute? Good news: QVC allows you to choose five ‘Easy Payments’ from just $ 96, without interest. And if you’re new to QVC, you can cut another $ 10 off the already incredible price with the promo code OFFER at checkout.
Some technology statistics about the latest iPad iteration (32 GB / Wi-Fi model): It has the same impressive 10.2 inch display, fast Touch ID fingerprint sensor and 3 GB of memory from the latest version, but it has a faster processor. (For tech connoisseurs, this speed comes from Apple’s A12 Bionic chip). You’ll notice – and appreciate – that when you’re watching videos, surfing the web, or playing games. You’ll also enjoy getting up to ten hours of action with each battery charge.
As we mentioned, the newest iPad comes with a Bluetooth keyboard and pen, a benefit for all note-takers and designers. It also features an 8 megapixel rear camera and a 1.2 megapixel selfie camera for FaceTime. Who knew how much video chatting we would be doing today? The quality of the camera is important!
