TL;DR: Get a refurbished Apple MacBook Air 13″ (2020) on sale for just $439.99; that’s a 55% discount on a $999 model.
When I needed to replace my laptop, I wanted to try a MacBook Air, something lightweight for travel that would still store and display all the photos and videos from my trips. This $440 one did the trick.
The 2020 13″ model was perfect, and when I found a refurbished version in silver for over half off the retail price, it still felt too good to be true.
Turns out, it’s in fantastic condition. I was guaranteed a Grade-A rating; besides some light wear, I’ve got a near-mint MacBook Air. I now have a computer with an Intel Core i3 processor and Intel Iris Plus Graphics, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of fast SSD storage. It’s got a smooth performance, a beautiful Retina display on the 13.3-inch screen, and plenty of memory and storage for my thousands of travel photos.
The backlit Magic Keyboard is great for typing on planes, and the built-in 49.9 Wh lithium-polymer battery gives me an 11-hour charge, meaning I can really lock in to whatever project I’m working on before I need to think about finding a power source.
I had no idea I could get a laptop of this quality for this price, so I’ll be buying refurbished from now on.
