Secure a pristine piece of computing history. The Apple iPad 1st Generation (16GB, Wi-Fi, MB292LL/A) is in EXCELLENT IN BOX (CIB) condition.
The Genesis of the Tablet Era:
Released in April 2010, the original iPad revolutionized personal computing. Powered by the first Apple-designed A4 chip, it features a beautiful bead-blasted aluminum rear shell, a 9.7-inch LED-backlit display, and the classic 30-pin dock connector. This specific unit is a true collector's "time capsule," retaining its original retail box, insert materials, and the original factory plastic wrap for the device. Remarkably, the original charging accessories remain factory sealed and completely unused.
Legacy Software & Phenomenal Battery Life:
This device operates on iOS 5.1.1, the final supported operating system for the 1st Generation iPad. While it cannot download modern App Store applications, it serves perfectly as an offline media reader, a digital photo frame, or a museum-grade display piece for an Apple enthusiast. The internal battery reports at 100% maximum health capacity (verified via the iMazing app - see screenshots), proving it has been exceptionally well-preserved with virtually no degradation over the last decade.
Condition Report:
This item is in EXCELLENT IN BOX (CIB) condition. It comes from a Climate-Controlled, Smoke-Free and Pet-Free home.
- Cosmetic: The front glass is in Near Mint condition and entirely scratch-free. The aluminum back and edges are in Excellent condition; they remain bright and clean, showing only a tiny nick on the bottom bezel edge and minor marks near the 30-pin dock connector. Vintage Display Note: As is standard with early un-laminated iPad screens, a faint optical effect known as "Newton Rings" is visible in a few spots when the screen is OFF under direct light. This is a normal air-gap characteristic, not liquid damage, and does not affect active display visibility.
- Function: Fully tested, wiped, and working flawlessly. Battery health is a confirmed 100%.
- Packaging/Extras: Includes the original retail box, paperwork, original device plastic sleeve wrap, and the 10W USB Power Adapter and 30-pin Cable (both SEALED and UNUSED in Mint condition).
