TL;DR: Get a MacBook Pro on sale for $409.97 (reg. $1,499) until December 8 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
The computer you use for work or school needs to be able to take some punishment. Whether it’s packed into a bag regularly or used for hours a day, every single day, it’s important to have a machine you can rely on. Bonus points if it’s affordable.
MacBooks might not be your first instinct for affordability, but it’s a special time of year when prices are low. That’s how you can get a MacBook Pro for $409.97 (instead of $1,499).
What can it do?
This low-cost laptop is equipped with a 2.4GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD. In practice, that means you can breeze through your regular productivity apps and even test the waters with light gaming or design apps. And the 13.3-inch Retina display gives you plenty of room to work.
One of the coolest things about this MacBook is the Touch Bar. Instead of function keys, the Touch Bar adapts to the apps you’re using. You can also use it to log into your computer using Touch ID, so no need to constantly type in a long password.
The grade “A” refurbished rating means this computer arrives in near-mint condition. Basically, the only signs that it’s refurbished might be the box and extremely faint signs of wear that you can’t see from more than a foot away. And because it’s a slightly older model, you actually get more ports than some recent versions, which is just a fun little bonus.
Time’s running out
December 8 at 11:59 p.m. PT is the deadline to get a MacBook Pro for $409.97.
