I recently purchased this wonderful Macbook Pro Retina 15-inch from mid-2016 and wanted to give my full experience/review. Condition: 5/5 When the computer arrived, I was pleased to see that it was in good physical condition. The exterior showed only minor signs of wear, with a few small scratches on the case, but nothing major. The screen was clear and free of dead pixels, and the keyboard and trackpad were in working order. Performance: 5/5 Despite being a second-hand purchase, the computer runs like a dream. It’s fast and responsive, with no noticeable lag when opening applications or switching between tabs. I was surprised by how well it handled multitasking and more demanding tasks like video editing and gaming (for its specs). The processor and RAM were still performing at peak capacity, and I haven’t had any issues with performance. Battery Life: 5/5 The battery life is as described and when unplugged from the charger the battery lasts for a while before needing to be charged up Software & Updates: 5/5 The computer came with the operating system pre-installed, and it was up to date. Everything runs smoothly on the computer with no problems at all Value for Money: 5/5 Overall, I’m very happy with the purchase. For the price I paid, this computer offers excellent value. It works just as well as a new model in terms of performance, and I didn’t break the bank. I’d recommend buying second-hand from trusted sellers as long as you know what you're getting, as this purchase proved to be a smart move for me. Final Verdict: 5/5 A solid piece of technology which I received with solid specs as well with great value for money and reliable options to pay including KLARNA which was used to make this purchase. Highly recommended will be using this service again.

Overall happy with the MacBook, my only issue is that once I had set it up I was already told the battery needed servicing. Even for just a fair quality product, I’d expect the battery to be tested and replaced when refurbishing?

Great bit of kit. Thanks so much. As new. Only thing that could have been slightly beater was the packaging. Could have done with more padding/bubble or the like. Got away with it this time. Other than that - the tech is first class! Many thanks
