Apple starts selling refurbished MacBook Neo, bringing the price down to its pre-hike level | Infinium-tech
Yesterday, Apple raised the prices of all its products except iPhones, and the MacBook Neo was not spared either – its price in the US increased by $100.
Today, Apple has begun offering the MacBook Neo in its Refurbished Store, and the price of the entry-level model with 256GB of storage and no Touch ID is now back to $599. This is what a new laptop used to cost before the increase, now you can get a refurbished laptop for the same price.
If you want the one with 512GB of storage and Touch ID, you’ll have to pay $679, which is $20 less than what this variant used to cost new before yesterday’s price hike. A new one in this configuration will now cost you $799.
So you’re saving some cash by going the refurbished route, and as always when buying an officially refurbished Apple product, you get the same one-year warranty as a new product. Apple says each device “undergoes full functionality testing and any defective parts are replaced”. It also undergoes a “thorough cleaning and inspection process”, and the laptop is repackaged. You also get a USB-C cable with a 20W power adapter in the box.
