What’s better than a MacBook? A MacBook that’s also cheap.
While buying refurbished won’t necessarily get you all the hottest new features — like the new M1 Pro and M1 Max chips — it’ll get you a powerful workhorse of a computer that’s built to last and won’t break the bank. And isn’t that what we’re all really searching for in 2021?
Here are some of the best deals on refurbished MacBooks of all shapes and sizes at Woot as of Oct. 29. You could save up to $1,069 if you act fast.
If you’re looking for a companion to travel with you when you’re working on the go, a MacBook Air has never steered anyone wrong. It’s incredibly compact but still packs all the necessary features you’d expect from a full-sized laptop, including 256GB of PCIe-based SSD, ultrafast 802.11ac Wi-Fi, an Intel Core i5 1.8GHz dual-core processor, and up to 12 hours of battery life. It also has two USB 3.0 ports and a Thunderbolt 2 port, so you’ll get multiple connectivity options without needing an external hub.
Introduced in spring 2015 and discontinued a year later, the Core M was a gem with a very short lifespan. It basically reinvented portability, with a design that was lighter and thinner than the smallest MacBook Air models at the time. And with a single USB-C port for connectivity and a headphone jack, the hardware resembled an iPad with a keyboard. This one packs 256GB of PCIe-based flash storage, 8GB RAM, and a Intel Core M 1.1GHz processor. If you want something a step above an iPad, ideally for streaming, basic computing, and Apple-quality graphics and style, this deal can’t be beat.

The MacBook Pro is undefeated when it comes to laptops. Hard stop. This one from mid-2017 doesn’t disappoint, with an Intel 2.3 GHz Core i5 processor, 256GB of SSD storage, 8GB of RAM, and a gorgeous Retina display with Iris Plus Graphics 640. While it only has two Thunderbolt 3 ports for connectivity, it can easily be paired with a USB hub for versatility.

You’ll either love or hate the touch bar on the MacBook Pro from 2019, but either way, you can’t deny its power. This computer is a powerhouse in every definition of the word. It’s got top-notch processing speed with a quad-core 8th-generation Intel Core i5 processor, a brilliant Retina display with True Tone technology and Iris Plus Graphics 645, 128GB of ultra-fast PCIe-based SSD, and 8GB of DDR3 RAM. And as a bonus, you’ll get four Thunderbolt 3 ports, rather than two like it’s predecessor.
