Description
Apple iPad (9th generation) A2604 64GB in Space Gray — Wholesale A/B Stock
Built for enterprise device fleets, corporate refresh programs, and procurement teams, the Apple iPad (9th generation), listed by GSMArena as the iPad 10.2 (2021), was announced on September 14, 2021 and released on September 24, 2021. It pairs a 10.2-inch Retina IPS LCD at 1620 x 2160 (~265 ppi, 500 nits typical) with the Apple A13 Bionic, a hexa-core chip built on a 7 nm+ process, a 4-core Apple GPU and 3GB of RAM. An 8MP autofocus rear camera handles document capture, and the 12MP ultrawide front camera (122°) records 1080p video for calls. Touch ID sits in the front-mounted home button. The 8,557mAh (32.4 Wh) battery charges over Lightning. The tablet launched with iPadOS 15 and appears on Apple's iPadOS 27 compatibility list; Apple has published no software update commitment for a fixed number of years. The body measures 250.6 x 174.1 x 7.5 mm and the cellular model weighs 498 g. This lot is the A2604 (Wi-Fi + Cellular model with LTE) in the 64GB configuration, Space Gray, unlocked and graded A/B Stock.
This model fits standard-issue business fleets, field operations, and refresh programs that want a full-size tablet with its own data connection instead of one that depends on site Wi-Fi. Inspectors, logistics staff, home-visit clinicians and sales teams can run forms, signature capture and line-of-business apps over LTE, with GPS for routing. The 64GB configuration covers kiosk, point-of-service and cloud-first deployments. Because the iPad (9th generation) is still supported by the current iPadOS 27 release, the lot suits new rollouts as well as replacement and spares stock for existing 10.2-inch iPad fleets. A/B Stock holds the per-unit cost below top-grade stock while keeping cosmetic wear light to moderate.

Enterprise Deployment and Management
iPadOS supports Apple Business Manager and Apple School Manager with Automated Device Enrollment, so units can be assigned to an organization and enrolled into mobile device management during setup over Wi-Fi or a cellular connection. Supervised iPads can be managed through mainstream MDM suites such as Jamf Pro, Microsoft Intune, VMware Workspace ONE and Kandji for app distribution, Wi-Fi and cellular profiles, restrictions, single-app kiosk mode and remote lock or wipe. Before enrollment, confirm that each unit is released from any previous organization and that Activation Lock is off. On-device specifications are listed in the Technical Specifications below.
