Apple MacBook Pro 2021 with Apple M1 Pro chip (14-inch, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) - Space Gray (Renewed)

All-new appearance without any damage to the screen or outside, only battery degraded to 90% but only with 30 cycles of use

I ordered the computer in "Excellent Condition," and there were no major dents or anything. However, the keyboard was definitely used and not cleaned effectively, as it only took some wet wipes to remove the previous owner's oils. I ordered the computer thinking I was going to get a 512GB model because that's what the listing said I would receive. However, I got a 1-terabyte model instead!!! So I am thrilled. The computer itself works great and is super fast much better than the Microsoft Surface Laptop Go that I was using I chose the pro over the newer air model because I felt that the air would melt with the amount of work that I do (Adobe). I haven’t had much time with it to see if the battery lasts long enough, because the battery has degraded to only 86% health, which isn’t the best for a computer in "Excellent Condition." Otherwise, I am happy with it and I hope that happiness continues...

Almost perfect condition, just a few not important scratches. The machine is working perfectly fast. I would recommend getting this product.

I bought this 14” MacBook Pro M1 Pro as a Renewed product listed in “Excellent” condition, and in terms of performance, it’s flawless! The device runs perfectly, the battery came with only 48 cycles, and overall, it feels almost brand new. The reason I’m giving 4 instead of 5 stars is because the laptop arrived with some visible scratches on the top cover. Also, the store labeled it as “Grade B,” which doesn’t match the “Excellent” condition that should correspond to Grade A or higher. I’m not sure if it was a mistake in the listing or in what was shipped, but it affected my experience a bit. Other than that, it’s an amazing machine and does everything I needed.

I was a bit disappointed when I first opened the package. It was not shipped in a box, but was in a fairly protected insert inside the box. I could see that on the right front edge there appeared to be some discoloration and what appeared to be a scratch along the top part of the lid. I was thinking Refurb Excellent meant no scratches. However, upon further inspection I took a cloth with some alcohol on it and just gave the case a good wipe down. That corner looked as though there may have been a sticker on it. So I cleaned it very well and lo and behold you can see from the picture there actually are no scratches and discoloration is gone. So now I open it and it immediately came to life. I did notice there was not little tissues between the glass and the keyboard, but the display seems perfect with no scratches and the keyboard doesn't have any finger oils or wear on it. So I am happy about both. There was a couple of spots on the inside, but again the magic of an alcohol wipe and it cleaned up good. This MacBook Pro M1-14 was apparently initially purchased on Jan 24, 2023 as that is when the limited warranty runs out in 2024. No way to get Apple Care as the 90 days are well past. The battery indicator shows it to be normal with 99% battery life. It had 55 total charge cycles. Needless to say for the $1249.00 I paid for this thing I think I did great. It's a refurb it isn't going to be perfect. One thing I will say is they gave me a knock off power adapter and USB-C to MagSafe 3 cable. The cable looks great. But that power adapter got so hot that I don't trust it and it's going in the trash can. I'll buy a replacement Apple OEM charging brick. The seller on this was Loop Mobile. I see many people say they have had a bad experience with them, but this is mine so far. If anything changes I will update this review. I am only giving 4 stars because if they had taken the time to clean up the case to remove the apparently stains and provided a OEM brick. These 3rd party bricks have been known to cause fires. So my rating of 4 stars is still good. Update: 12/20/23 After about a week or two the battery started draining much quicker than expected. I actually contacted Apple they had me install a diagnostic and the battery level was much lower than when I initially got it. However, they recommended for me to wipe it and reinstall MacOS. So I did this as we thought maybe something was running in the background that a reboot was not clearing. However, that made no different. I could literally charge it to 100% and not have anything running from the taskbar. When I would get up in the AM about 7 or 8 hours later it was be at 75%. When I get home from work it's would be at 50%. I couldn't figure that out. I requested a return and I was sad to do so because other than the battery it was mint. The seller fully refunding me when the received the laptop back. I shipped it back in the same box that they shipped it to me in. I did end up purchasing another one that was an Apple Refurb, but that is another review.

I was a little nervous about buying a MacBook on Amazon but I couldn't be happier. It came in PERFECT condition and was ready for me to set it up and I had no issues. You couldve told me it was brand new out of the box and Id believe you lol It's very fast and lightweight. I put a case on it so that made it a lil heavier but still definitely very easy to carry around. The 14" was a better size than I thought it would be!! Less bulky than a 15" but still very usable/not so small that I can barely type. I plan to use this for music production purposes (and an upgrade from my old laptop) and with the speed I've seen so far, I'll do just fine :) **IMPORTANT NOTE: CHECK REVIEWS ON SELLERS WHEN YOU DECIDE WHERE YOURE ORDERING FROM!!!** Some had REALLY bad reviews so I steered clear. I ordered my laptop from Dynamic IT Hardware so I recommend them.

I was a little hesitant about buying a renewed MacBook Pro, but I’m so glad I went for it! This 2021 14-inch model with the M1 Pro chip has blown me away. Right out of the box, it looked and felt brand new—no scratches, dents, or any sign that it was ever used. The performance is exactly what I hoped for: lightning-fast, handling my work tasks and creative projects (even heavy video editing!) without a hitch. The 16GB of RAM and 512GB SSD provide plenty of speed and storage for my needs, and the battery life has been outstanding, lasting me through an entire day without needing a charge. Space Gray looks sleek as ever, and I appreciate that I got all this power at a fraction of the cost of a brand-new one. If you’re on the fence about going renewed, take the leap. It’s a great way to get premium Apple performance without breaking the bank!

This is my first time buying a refurbished Apple product and I can say I’m happy with the decision overall. At first glance, the MacBook looks to be in excellent condition. If you look very closely, you can see some light scratches and minor wear on the body, especially on the right side below the ports, as well as a few tiny marks that show normal use. What concerned me a bit more was the screen: it’s not damaged or worn out, but under certain lighting I can notice a couple of small hairline scratches. That said, this is exactly what you should expect from a refurbished product — it’s not 100% perfect cosmetically, but it’s fully functional and works great. I received the model I ordered: a 14" MacBook Pro with 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD. It arrived completely drained of battery and came with a non-original charger and cable, which is something to keep in mind if that detail is important to you. One personal tip: take the time to read the seller reviews carefully — that’s something I skipped and I realized it can really influence your overall experience. Despite the small cosmetic details, I totally recommend buying refurbished products, especially from Apple. It’s a great way to get a powerful device when you don’t have the budget for a brand-new one.
