I didn’t want to buy anything used and old so I settled on a 2017 32GB model, which should be plenty for my needs. Out of the box when setting it up, it already had an issue! I couldn’t even use my Apple ID. The iPad was complaining that my Apple ID or password is incorrect and I should “try another one”. I tried the same ID online and it worked.

Even System Restore doesn’t help, either failing with random errors or having been disabled altogether – thanks, Microsoft!
