    This MacBook Pro was in really good condition. `There were a couple of tiny scratches but that is being very picky as they were barely visible . I am thrilled with my purchase. I did have reservations regarding purchasing a reconditioned laptop but, so far, have not been disappointed. I ordered the MacBook on Friday and received it on the following Tuesday. I was kept informed every step of the way. Would definitely recommend this company and, indeed, have done so already!

    Getting a refurbished MacBook M3 was a really great process with Back Market. I needed a laptop for my freelance business and getting a refurbished one is a great way to start to minimise your starting costs. It arrived in amazing condition. The device looked practically brand new. Well it did after I wiped it it down and gave it a clean. I got the second grade one due to availability but I was not disappointed. The Apple box it came it was a bit dinged up but not a problem. The money saved has really made a difference and would recommend the service to anyone.

    Here’s a professional yet firm review for your experience: I recently purchased a MacBook from this website and, overall, I am very satisfied with its performance. The laptop functions smoothly, meets my expectations, and I truly appreciate the quality Apple provides. However, I specifically chose the “Fair” condition option, fully aware that it might come with some superficial damage. What disappointed me was the unethical practice of placing a “No Return if Removed” sticker over a hidden additional damage. This felt deceptive and unprofessional, as it prevented me from fully assessing the laptop’s condition before committing to keeping it. Transparency is crucial when selling refurbished or pre-owned devices. If the company had been upfront about the actual condition, I would have still considered the purchase but with the right expectations. Other than this issue, I’m happy with the laptop itself and hope it lasts me a long time. I just wish the customer experience had been more honest and professional.

    All I can say - they delivered! The laptop looks Good, as I have bought a "Good" state. No obvious signs of wear, unless you start really looking for some, yes you might find a tiny bumps on the edges, but otherwise very happy with such a powerful piece of kit for such a sweet price tag. Being sick of prices of everything raising by the minute, this was actually a nice experience overall. Will definitely continue this new tradition of refurbished tech purchasing. Thank you Back Market folk!

    I have bought several laptops, desktops and tablets from Back Market. This one was for my partner. She's and using it now and is well pleased with it. Of all the back Market products so far only one failed and it was replaced with a better, newer one which I am currently typing this on. I will (as they say) be back, probably for a reconditioned iWatch.

    I was blown away by the condition of my new macbook! Not a scratch on it and works like a dream! I've always bought my tech refurbished, but I've never known a quality like this. I traded in my old macbook and the service was quick and easy to navigate. Highly recommend and will definitely be using Back Market again!

    When I initially opened the box I was slightly disappointed at the condition (I ordered excellent) but quickly realised it is 4 years old & refurbished after all- brand new quality comes at brand new prices. There are some marks on the screen (maybe from where there’s been stickers) but everything works as it should, it’s rapid, & mainly has no problem keeping up with my work load - Recording bands etc Absolutely love this machine & would recommend Backmarket to anyone!

    For a refurb it's pretty decent, I was apprehensive to buy one. But it work as it should, got delivered promptly. The battery life is decent too. And to buy a refurbished anything we are recycling our tech and helping the planet.

    I recently purchased a product from BackMarket and was thoroughly impressed with the entire process. From the swift delivery to the condition of the product, everything exceeded my expectations. I chose the "Excellent" condition option, and the product arrived in flawless condition with only two charge cycles—essentially brand new. I couldn't be more satisfied and would like to extend my gratitude to both BackMarket and the refurbishment company for their exceptional service.

Apple M1 MacBook Pro

 

With the MacBook Pro M1, Apple revolutionized their laptops. For the first time, they built their own processors, no longer exclusively offering an Intel Chip.

This M1 chip consists of an 8-core processor, 7 to 8 graphics cores, and the neural engine with 16 cores. You additionally get up to 16GB of RAM, up to 2TB of SSD storage and a 100Wh battery. In effect, the performance you get from an M1 MacBook Pro is a giant improvement over previous versions.

 

How much does a used vs refurbished Apple MacBook M1 cost?

 

The prices for a used Apple laptop depends on its specific configuration. So take a close look at the storage space, RAM, processor and size. The better the features, the more you'll have to pay for the laptop -- even if it's used.

At Back Market, MacBooks are comprehensively repaired and overhauled by our authorised workshops. So they work like they did when you bought them, yet cost up to 50% less. Equipped with the M1 chip, the MacBook is perfectly equipped for any task you throw it.

Besides saving money, environmental sustainability is another reason to buy a refurbished MacBook Pro M1. This means that less electronic waste is produced and no further raw materials are needed.

 

Is it worth buying the MacBook Pro M1 2020 refurbished?

 

Given the low prices and the top quality of the laptops, it is definitely worth buying second-hand. The refurbished models are reconditioned and work as good as new. So you get a first-class device and still pay relatively little for it. The powerful chip of the M1 ensure that you will be able to use this laptop for many years to come.

 

MacBook Pro M1 vs MacBook Air M1

 

On a similar level is currently the MacBook Air M1, a lighter and thinner version of the Pro. Here, too, an M1 chip is installed and ensures high-quality performance. The predecessors, e.g. the MacBook Pro 2020 and the MacBook 2019, have slightly lower specifications. Compared to even older models, these computers are already very powerful and can cope with all the current demands of games, internet streaming and much more.

What are the dimensions of the 2020 MacBook Pro M1?

 

The M1 MacBook Pro 2020 measures 1.56 cm x 30.41 cm x 21.24 cm in height, width and length
