Frequently Asked Questions

  • Both Apple Pencil (USB-C) and Apple Pencil (1st generation) are compatible with this iPad.

    Apple Pencil (USB-C) pairs via USB-C Charge Cable and attaches magnetically for storage.

    To use Apple Pencil (1st generation) with this iPad, a USB-C to Apple Pencil Adapter is required for pairing and charging. It is included with your purchase of Apple Pencil (1st generation). If you already own an Apple Pencil (1st generation), you’ll need to purchase the USB-C to Apple Pencil Adapter. This adapter is sold separately at Apple Store locations, on apple.com and on the Apple Store app.

  • Apple accepts Apple Pay, most credit and debit cards, PayPal, and Apple Store Gift Cards. Qualifying customers can also pay in instalments with financing options.

  • Apple Trade In makes it easy to get credit towards the purchase of your next device. Simply answer a few questions about your device. Based on what you tell us, we’ll provide an estimated trade-in value.** If you pay monthly, we’ll apply the value as instant credit to lower the monthly payments of your new device. If you pay in full, we’ll credit your payment method after we receive your trade-in. If it’s not eligible for credit, you can recycle it for free.

    After your new device ships, we’ll send you a free trade-in kit with instructions and a pre-paid shipping label. When we receive your trade-in, we’ll verify its condition and if everything checks out, your trade-in will be complete. If your device doesn’t match the condition you described, you’ll receive an email with next steps. If you paid in full and the value of your device was more than the cost of your new device, you’ll receive an Apple Gift Card by email with the remaining amount.

    The online trade-in process generally takes two to three weeks.

    You can also trade in your device at an Apple Store at the point of purchase. However, the trade-in value in the store may be different from the estimated trade-in value you received online.
