Apple® devices are known for their quality construction and reliability. As a result, a refurbished MacBook® is a great investment that allows you to access high-quality computing at a more affordable price. However, you should make your selection carefully to ensure you get the most out of the investment. Here are a few points to consider when shopping for a new laptop. 

3 Steps to Take When Buying a Refurbished MacBook

1. Check the Date of Manufacture

The date of manufacture is not a dealbreaker but rather a way to determine whether a device is right for you. Manufacture dates provide insight into the capabilities of the laptop, the generation of the processor, and other important information. 

Even a difference of two or three years can provide a vastly different computing experience, so the year could play a major role in your decision. If you do more than basic internet surfing and minimal video streaming, you might want to focus on a model from the last few years, such as the MacBook Pro with Touch Bar®.

2. Ask About the Warranty

Reputable resellers of Apple products often issue warranties for their products. A warranty shows that the business is confident in their process for inspecting and refurbishing devices. 

This guarantee also provides the new buyer with satisfaction that any glitches or defects will be addressed if they arise within the time frame of the warranty. If a shop doesn't offer a warranty for sales, it's best to keep looking. 

3. Shop With an Experienced Reseller

Apple has developed a very rigorous process when it comes to their refurbished MacBook laptops and other devices. Resellers must rigorously test the device to determine its quality. From there, they must perform the necessary repairs to ensure the device offers a good experience for the new owner. 

The shop you choose must be fully aware of and compliant with these standards. It's also a good idea to look for a shop that handles repairs as well as sales, as you can rest assured that any future issues will be effectively addressed.
