So… it seems that we're going to be spending a little time confined to our homes, with only the plants for company. It's probably a good time to grow a small vegetable garden on your balcony anyway, or… maybe just reconnect with your console or PC. But there will come a time when you have to work, so for those of you who are not used to working remotely, we’re here to offer you a small survival kit to equip you in these exceptional circumstances.

    Really great service, I ordered a refurbished MacBook Air 13 inch (2017) with 128GB of storage but I was sent one with a higher spec and 256GB of storage. Working really well so far, although slower than a new model as expected, and definitely worth the price.

    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!

    I recently bought a refurbished MacBook from Back Market, and I’m really happy with it! The ordering process was simple, and delivery was quick and on time. The MacBook arrived in fantastic condition—honestly looked almost new, with barely any signs of previous use. Everything is working smoothly, and I feel like I got a great value.

    I had a bad experience previously which put me off buying refurbished Macs. Eventually I had to give it another go as I urgently required a Mac to work last minute. Not only the laptop arrived to me the next day, it also came flawless. Third day in and I had it running for 7 hours straight for work - no issues! Thank you.

    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.

Benefits of buying a refurbished MacBook


At Back Market, customers save up to 50% off compared to the price of new on certified refurbished MacBook models. The best part is, you don't have to sacrifice performance quality in order to save money; all refurbished devices on our marketplace have been fully reconditioned, cleaned, inspected and tested to the same standards as a new one. This is the biggest difference between buying a used or second hand MacBook compared to a refurbished one.

Buying a reconditioned MacBook is also an environmentally friendly option. A refurbished MacBook is often a second hand device that has been restored and updated to meet manufacturer standards, which means you'll be helping to keep old MacBooks out of our landfills, reduce electronic waste, and minimise your carbon footprint.

 

How to choose your MacBook

 

Where to find a cheap refurbished MacBook?


If you're looking for cheaper MacBook options and don't want to pay full price, you'll find the biggest selection, highest product quality and lowest prices on restored MacBook models at Back Market. That's because we specialise specifically in refurbished tech and take the time to carefully vet every seller on our marketplace to ensure customers are getting reliable devices that perform like-new. We have several refurbed MacBook in price ranges to fit almost anyone's budget.

Staying true to our brand, we're also a huge advocate for environmental change. In fact, at the beginning of 2023, we hit a milestone for preventing 1 million tons of carbon emission (CO2e) from entering the atmosphere. You can help contribute to a better circular economy when you shop MacBook deals on our platform.

 

What to expect when buying a refurbished MacBook?


If you're a first time refurbished buyer, you might not be sure what to expect from your purchase. First, understand that your MacBook may have external cosmetic flaws depending on the condition you choose (Back Market offers devices of Fair, Good and Excellent quality). However, whatever the condition, any external blemishes will not affect the performance of your MacBook and you can expect your device to perform as if it were newly opened directly from the store.

You should also be confident that your MacBook is backed by a 1-year warranty, meaning in the rare case that any defects arise (outside of accidental damage) within 12 months of your delivery date, then you're entitled to your choice of a repair, replacement or reimbursement.

 

MacBook warranty and return policy with Back Market


All MacBook purchases on Back Market come with free standard shipping, a 1-year warranty, and a 30-day money-back guarantee. We want to make sure you can shop with confidence and find the best MacBook for your needs at lower prices.

 

MacBook deals for students


Great news for students shopping for refurbished laptops on Back Market - we offer all college and university students £20 off on all purchases worth £250. You can unlock your student offer deals here. Or if you need help deciding on your next laptop, check out our guide on the best laptops for university.

 

Second hand MacBook vs Refurbished MacBook?

 

Back Market's refurbished MacBooks are sold in perfect working condition to function just "like new". That's gonna be way better than a used or secod hand MacBook since our refurbished Apple MacBooks have been thoroughly tested before being sold. Plus everything sold on Back Market comes with a minimum 12-month warranty to give you extra peace of mind.

 

Refurbished MacBook Pro vs MacBook vs MacBook Air

 

MacBooks are a series of Apple laptops that include the MacBook Pro and MacBook Air, as well as the original and retina MacBooks. The original MacBooks and then the "new" Retina MacBooks were discontinued, but the MacBook Pro and MacBook Air each get updated almost every year by the Californian company. Moreover, they're best suited for different kinds of users. MacBook Pro is the best option for those who want a bigger display, the best performance and the nicest screen possible. But we recommend the MacBook Air to anyone who would prefer better battery life, easier portability and a lower price. In any case, buying a refurbished MacBook is certainly always the best decision since you get the same great Apple laptop at the lowest price possible, and you contribute fewer carbon emissions.

 

Is an Apple laptop (Apple MacBook) worth it?

 

Currently starting at £999 for a base-model M1 MacBook Air, and going all the way up to £5,899 for a full-specs 14" MacBook Pro (2020), buying an Apple laptop new is not cheap. Obviously then you have to ask yourself: is it worth the price? We think MacBooks are good for those that want a high-quality build, reliable MacOS operating system and industry-leading battery life. It's true that some users may need to consider a Windows PC because Macs aren't compatible with every game or application. But if you are a student or doing creative work, MacBooks can definitely be worth the price. Of course, you can only get the very best value if you avoid buying new, and instead buy your next laptop refurbished on Back Market. Get the same M1 MacBook Air starting at £880, and a 14" MacBook Pro (2020) for as low as £1,899.
