Description

A touch of genius. The Apple 13.3" MacBook Pro with Touch Bar is faster and more powerful than before, yet remarkably thinner and lighter. It has the brightest, most colorful Mac notebook display ever. And it introduces the Touch Bar - a Multi-Touch enabled strip of glass built into the keyboard for instant access to tools you want, right when you want them. The new MacBook Pro is built on groundbreaking ideas. And it's ready for yours. The Apple 256GB MacBook Pro includes a touch sensitive LED bar instead of the function keys at the top of the keyboard. This bar displays options that work best with the app you are currently using and don't require the memorization needed to keep track of the uses of each function key. Touch ID is integrated into this Apple laptop's power button and can be used to authorize purchases in Apple Pay. The Touch ID accurately scans your fingerprint so it can match it with the Secure Enclave in the laptop's Apple T2 co-processor chip. Make payments with ease and peace of mind knowing that Touch ID technology operates with the highest degree of precision.

Frequently asked questions

The term 'Renewed' indicates that the 2017 MacBook Pro has been pre-owned and has undergone a refurbishment process by Amazon-qualified suppliers. This process includes functionality testing, basic cleaning, inspection, and repackaging. The product may have minimal signs of wear, comes with all relevant accessories, and typically a minimum 90-day warranty.

The 13-inch 2017 MacBook Pro model has its RAM soldered to the motherboard, which means it is not user-upgradable. The SSD uses a proprietary connection, and while technically it can be replaced by a service provider, it is not typically a straightforward DIY upgrade due to the complexities and potential risks involved.

As of my knowledge cut-off in early 2023, the 2017 MacBook Pro should support the latest macOS versions. However, it's essential to check the specific requirements of the latest macOS software to ensure compatibility as new versions are released.

The 2017 MacBook Pro usually has up to 10 hours of battery life for web browsing or movie playback. However, as a renewed product, actual battery life may vary depending on the battery's condition and any replacements made during the refurbishment process.

  • Great Laptop
Style: i5 | 16GB | 256GB Color: Space Gray
The laptop is perfect! no scratches or dents, all the keys work and the touch bar is amazing. I will say the battery life is a bit short but that’s expected for an older laptop. I was a little scared at first because of some of the reviews but it’s super fast and over all definitely worth the money in my opinion. ... show more

  • scam. save yourself the headache & heartache
Style: i5 | 8GB | 512GB Color: Space Gray
scam. the laptop was defective , had knick’s and chips in it , kept shutting off making me loose my work until it shut off completely on me with my apple id and social , credit cards, passwords, photos etc.. on it. and they wanted me to return it with all my personal information on there. and when i explained my problem to the seller he just kept copy and pasting the same message to me over and over again about the 90 policy and 30 day refund which did not help in my case. and since this is a 3rd party seller, amazon told me they can’t do anything about it unless it was returned which i dont trust it being returned with no passcode on the laptop basically insinuating they would have full reign to do anything with my sensitive information. they should really update who responds to messages because no matter what i said, the same copy and paste message about the policy would be the reply they send me even when i told them that’s not helping. i even asked were they listening and clearly they weren’t because the same message is throughout our entire seller-buyer conversation. this is frustrating as i used this laptop for work and it has sensitive work information on there as well as i do property management. so not only would my info be leaked but every community we manage as well personal information will be leaked as well. i do not trust this seller at all. i would stay away. and i dont even write reviews typically. this is the first ever problem i’ve ran into while using amazon. i’m in disbelief right now as i thought they had better policies in place. and to the seller ; you need to do better and stop scamming people. if your products are defective STOP SELLING THEM. it’s not like it $2.00 were spending , it’s HUNDREDS of dollars going to waste on these products people assuming are working. ... show more

  • Worth the money! Wasn’t aware of year, but it’s still newer than my guesses.
Style: i5 | 8GB | 256GB Color: Space Gray
Just got my Mac today and absolutely love it! I’ve been wanting a Mac for a while and sold my iPad to get this. Doesn’t come in Apple box, but it comes bubble wrapped and with the charger. Not an Apple charger but it’s still works for the computer. No scratches, no cracks, no issues starting it up and syncing everything. There was no specification on the year of the MacBook on the Amazon ad for it, but I can confirm it’s a 2018 which isn’t at all what I was expecting so it’s newer than I expected! Love it! ... show more

  • Good enough.
Style: i5 | 16GB | 512GB Color: Space Gray
Almost a 5 star for what it is. There is a small spot on the bottom center of the screen that doesnt seem to be working. It’s white, but faded white, so it isn’t overly noticeable. Considering the purpose of me getting this macbook though, it’s totally fine. Upon first setting up, I was a little concerned as everything was a bit laggy and choppy. After standard maintanance, and putting this thing to use, maybe it shook stuff off because now it’s performing quite smoothly. Not like m1 smooth, but more than good enough. ... show more

  • It is ALIVE~ and then it died after 10 months
Style: i5 | 8GB | 256GB Color: Space Gray
I spilled liquid on my old MacBook Air 2017 back in January and I've been looking for a laptop replacement. PC didn't work for me, and a newer model was too expensive. Someone recommend that I try buying a refurbished model for Amazon and here I am! This computer has been running like a charm and I find the Touch Bar fun to use. This computer has really allowed me to make my work mobile and its absolutely cleaned. No traces of past owner. The battery life works just fine. Anything longer than 3 hours is a bit excessive and sounds like ppl should take a break from work, haha~ Anyway, the whole computer is solid and in great. condition. My only hang up is that the screw at the bottom was slightly out of the hole. that was weird. Aside from that I'm happy with my purchase. UPDATE: It has been less than a year and this laptop won't even turn on. I had an important job that night and ended up buying a whole new computer. ... show more

  • Everything looks fine, except battery life
Style: i5 | 8GB | 256GB Color: Silver
I’ve been using this mid 2017 MacBook Pro (256GB, 8GB RAM) primarily for studying, browsing, and general day-to-day tasks. The laptop performs very well during regular use—it's fast, responsive, and I haven't experienced any delays or lag. While I haven't tested it for video editing, it’s more than sufficient for university work and light browsing. Touch bar works good too. The Retina display is good, with great color accuracy and brightness. The laptop feels solid overall, and the opening mechanism is really smooth—not flimsy at all. As for charging, it charges quickly, but the battery drains just as fast. Under regular use, I’m lucky if I get 2-3 hours before needing to recharge. It drains even faster under heavier use, so keep that in mind if you’re planning on using it for extended sessions. The laptop stays relatively quiet during use—there’s no noticeable fan noise. I haven’t tried all the ports, but the ones I’ve used so far work fine, and the laptop came with its original certification. The charger is in good condition, looks great, and functions properly. As for software, it came with macOS 10.8.2, but I did update it to macOS Ventura 14 on the app store, which is the latest version supported by this model. If you’re looking for a more up-to-date operating system, be sure to update to Ventura, as it's the most recent version available for this machine. ... show more
