Apple sells refurbished MacBook Air for $799 this week

Apple’s official refurbished store is offering big discounts this week on top-tier devices including iPhones, MacBooks, and Studio Displays—all backed by the company’s own refurbishment process.

This isn’t a reseller flipping used gear with questionable origins. Every item in Apple’s Certified Refurbished Store has gone through the company’s strict reconditioning program in Cupertino, meaning it gets new batteries, genuine parts, and a full cosmetic refresh before being resold. That stamp of approval matters, especially when third-party refurb sellers often cut corners on quality or reliability. Apple even backs these devices with the same one-year warranty as new products, giving buyers extra peace of mind.

The store’s weekly picks spotlight some of the best savings right now. For example, a refurbished 14-inch MacBook Pro with M3 chip and 512GB storage can come in under $1,400—hundreds less than the same model brand new. A 24-inch iMac with M1 and 256GB SSD is dipping below $850, while a Studio Display with nano-texture glass has dropped to $1,200, down from $1,599 at launch. Accessories like AirPods Max and MagSafe chargers are also discounted, sometimes by over 30%. The 9to5Mac team tracks stock and pricing daily, so these deals don’t last long and inventory is limited.

For anyone looking to save without sacrificing quality, Apple’s refurb store is one of the safest bets. The combination of genuine parts, Apple’s warranty, and steep discounts makes it a rare win in today’s high-price tech market. Whether you need a work laptop or a backup iPhone, checking the store weekly could mean snagging a nearly new device for hundreds less.
