Get a refurbished 12-inch MacBook from 2017 for less than half its original price

TL;DR: As of July 5, you can get a refurbished Apple MacBook 12" 1.2GHz 256GB SSD for just $560 —that's another 20% off from its usual price of $700.


Apple is reportedly working on a new 12-inch MacBook for release either in late 2023 or early 2024. If you don’t feel like waiting until then to get your hands on a smaller MacBook, consider this deal on a refurbished 12-inch MacBook from 2017.

When the MacBook “Core m3” was released five years ago, it retailed for $1,299. Today, it’s valued between $600 and $700, but you can snag one on sale for only $560 for a limited time. Aesthetically, it’s not in tip-top condition, with a grade “C” refurbished rating. But hardware-wise, it’s completely tested and verified to be fully functional. In other words, it has a few battle wounds from its previous life. Just pop a case over it and you'll barely even notice.

The 12-inch MacBook doesn’t just have a small screen. It also sports the super small seventh-generation 1.2GHz Intel Core m3 processor, which means it's slim, fanless, and extremely lightweight at just 2 pounds. That’s even lighter than a MacBook Air. Its size doesn’t mean it skimps on power, though. It also features a Retina display with a vivid 2304 x 1440 resolution, up to 10 hours of battery life, 256GB of SSD storage, and 8GB of RAM. That’s plenty of power and space to support your everyday endeavors.

The cons? It only has one USB-C port and a low-resolution 480p FaceTime camera. If you’re mainly using your device for browsing, streaming, or schoolwork, those shouldn’t be deal-breakers, though.

It may not be the latest and greatest Apple device on the market, but for only $560, you also get what you pay for. Plus, you don't have to wait around for another year or two. Upgrade your work or play setup for a steal.

Prices subject to change.
