Yes out of box it’s pretty safe for the most part. We test all of the units before they go on the sales floor as open box. Most of the times it’s customers that try it out and want to either upgrade to another device or just changed their mind completely. If you do find a problem with it you can still return it. One thing I always recommend is test the device out and make sure everything is located in the box that’s supposed to be there and make sure it’s the right model!!!! We have had a few customers that will buy the new iPad and return the iPad last years model they have had. Customer service has no idea when taking in the return and even though there supposed to match serial numbers.
