Apple MacBook Pro 13-inch 2.3GHz Core i5, 256GB - Space Gray - 2017 (Renewed)

I purchased a refurbished Macbook Pro 13" in "Excellent" condition with 256 GB Storage and 8 GB RAM to have a facetime machine. I haven't tested it for a long facetime call yet, but out of the box, it really looks like a new laptop. The charging adapter has seen better days, but it does work. I was skeptical about my purchase after reading some reviews, but I'm very pleasantly surprised with what I received. I do think the packaging could have been better; I received a generic computer box lacking padding, and that box was sitting inside an amazon box with even less padding. I don't blame the seller for it rattling around the amazon box freely, but it seems to have arrived without any damage. The colors on the screen are vibrant and beautiful. I haven't noticed any screen burn-in. There aren't any scratches on it either; it looks brand new. The battery is in good shape with 115 charge cycles. The camera doesn't have any issues, and when it's on, the green LED light illuminates. The hinge feels good upon opening and closing. There's some light wear on the keys from previous usage, but nothing major. All the keys work and respond to a regular press. The microphone is also in good shape. It does run a little warm, though, I'm also installing updates onto it. I also haven't owned a macbook before, but I have heard they run a bit warm, even when new, so take what I said about the warmth with a grain of salt. If you're looking for a lightweight laptop to get you by in college, buying this as a refurb is a steal.

I bought this computer, needing it for school work, and was a cheap option for someone who didn’t have a big budget. It worked okay for about 4 months, had some issues such as the battery dying very fast and overheating a lot. Learned to live with it and only keep a few tabs open. Eventually, it stopped working, and wouldn’t let me do anything on the computer since the wifi wouldn’t enable. Took it to a repair place, turns out the motherboard was dying the whole time and didn’t have long left. Extremely upset that I spent 333 dollars on this product and Amazon won’t refund me or do anything at all since its about 1 month and a half past the return date. Which I understand, but obviously they need to have exceptions or make the return dates on these longer since they are CLAIMING that these are in “excellent condition” When they are on the brink of dying. Very unhappy that there has not been any problem solving on Amazon’s side. And if you buy one, if ANYTHING seems off immediately return the product because it will probably stop working justttt after the return date so they can short you a couple hundred of dollars! And what’s even better is that in order for them to fix my computer it would cost over 900 dollars…. When I payed over 300 dollars to get it in the first place. I would’ve been better off buying a brand new macbook then this crap :) Atleast it would have lasted me A LOT longer. It also came with a horrible covering on it that wasn’t even centered on the computer so I had to peel that off. I would like a refund or atleast half of my money back since this thing didn’t even last me half of a year. Waste of 300 dollars that goes to this stupid company.

At first i thought this deal was too good to be true. but then i did some more research into the model and it was a great deal. If you need a computer and don't want to spend a fortune i recommend this. The computer i received is in excellent condition (minus a couple scratches that are hardly noticeable) as advertised. It was super easy to set up especially with having to transfer from my old Macbook. Honestly this is like a brand new computer. Also keep in mind, this is a "renewed product" therefore its NOT new. it is previously owned and inspected to make sure it is in proper working order. if you don't like the looks of the scratches, get a cover. over all Great Buy!

The laptop shuts down on its own, and when I switch it back on, it shows a low battery warning even though it was charged.

What can I say? This is a fantastic company, that stands by their products and service and anyone should buy from them with complete confidence. The product are good quality, I’ve bought for myself last year and then 6 months later got a 15 inch MacBook for my 19 year old son. We saved ton of money consider to buying new from the Apple Store and the computers worked well. The best part about this and why I am leaving a review is because when I had concern and questions with the products they responded super fast, and were very professional.

The computer itself looks good, however the battery is completely fried. I opened it, it was already dead, I plugged it in, it turned on and I charged it. I left it charging for 5 hours and it only charged to 80%. So I unplugged the charger and turned it on. It died in 3 minutes. Completely dead. I should have done more research before buying it, either I’m going to request the seller gives me a battery for free or I’m returning it and I’ll just buy a newer one from a different seller. The thing is I know people who have iPhone 8’s, iPhone 6’s, and older iPhones, you would think a 2017 MacBook would be able to hold itself together for 8 years, Apple is supposed to best quality but something also tells me that the seller probably buys these computers and sends them out as is without even testing them first to make sure they’re still functional. I was definitely skeptical after reading the reviews and all I can say is if you read this review, do yourself a favor and spend a little more money to get something with better reviews/ratings. Only 54%+/- people gave this a 5⭐️, and 24%+/- gave it a 1⭐️, you’ll have better luck going yo the roulette table and putting all your money on black. Overall, the computer looks good, but it runs like absolute trash. If i can they a new battery i ll be returning it, and now that I think about it, this computer was probably already returned and they just sent it out again hoping the next guy would forget about it. I’ll also delete this review if they send me another battery (or a whole new computer)

Muy buena gracias

I ordered 2 of these laptops.. both batteries won’t hold a charge and one of the laptops crashes when you try to launch the App Store. GARBAGE. Don’t waste your time. If 0 stars was an option - that would be my rating.

Needed a new laptop in a pinch for school and took a chance. Definitely believe it’s hit or miss with referbs, but my experience was positive! Physical computer is great with only one minor knick on the bottom. Screen and keyboard are perfect. Nothing was dirty, including usb-c ports, and so far battery has no problems.

Several Buttons don't work a usb c port doesn't work dirty I mean absolutely disgusting still with crumbs in screen\ keyboard wedge heavily scratched laptop How do you pass this off as Excellent Condition?

Very minor scratches but all keys work perfectly screen has some to no scratches. Definitely amazing for the price

The MacBook arrived and was delivered on time. Once we opened the box and saw the item we immediately noticed the chip. We understood it is a refurbished unit, we still expected it to be in better condition. Thanks.
