Look around online/ebay etc, there are some really good deals to be found. Also, judging by the Windows Core M laptops that have been released recently, there could be a 2nd USB C port. Skylake for those that haven't read about it, should bring about an extra hour or 2 in battery life, 10/15% CPU improvements, and up to 40% in GPU improvements. If I was in the market for a rMB now, I would either buy used or hold out, as the skylake update could be around the corner (in 2 months, it'll be exactly a year since it was announced in March 2015).
Got a 1.1 base model for almost half the price on Gumtree (UK version of craigslist). All of Apple's refurbished products are tested, certified, and come with a one-year warranty.
Refurbished editions of newly released Macs often show up in the refurbished store after a few months, but the supply issues may explain why refurbished MacBook models haven't previously been available.Īpple's refurbished inventory fluctuates on a regular basis based on available supply, so models that are available today may not be available tomorrow. Personal Pickup for the MacBook wasn't available until August, four months after it was released. Shipping estimates were upwards of a month for most models, and most Apple retail stores received very little stock. The 1.2GHz/8GB/512GB Retina MacBook in Silver is available for $1,359, a $240 discount, while an upgraded 1.3GHz/8GB/512GB machine in Silver is available for $1,489, $260 off the regular price of $1,749.įor many months after its launch, Retina MacBook supplies were constrained. All of the refurbished machines are available at a 15 percent discount.Īpple has four refurbished Retina MacBook models for sale at the current time, including two entry-level 1.1GHz models for $1,099, a $200 discount, and two higher end models. While the main refurbished site does not yet have a listing for the Retina MacBook, refurbished models are available on a dedicated MacBook page. The machine has a full edge-to-edge keyboard, a fanless design enabled by a low power Core-M chip from Intel, and a Retina Display. Released in April of 2015, the Retina MacBook is Apple's thinnest, lightest Mac product, measuring in at just 13.1mm thick and weighing 2 pounds.
