  • Battery great so far
Capacity: 256GB
So this is my 2nd purchase! It seems to be alright I once again picked one in “excellent condition”, great physical appearance* it has one little scratch it’s no biggie, no trouble with the battery Thank God & it’s been charged for a while , light weight , great speed , keyboard and everything works great no warning for the battery like the other MacBook. Now I am very happy with this purchase before I was not !!!! First review >>> Okay sooo let me start off by saying I’ve read many reviews and searched many different companies and decided to go with this one based off price and hopefulness that I would get a good used MacBook . The first one I ordered was in perfect condition which it should’ve been because i selected one in “Excellent condition” upon turning it on and charging it that was not the case ! Charge would not last ! It jumped from 5% to 25% up to 60% then back down to 1% right as I’m looking at it . So I waited did all the trouble shooting even made an Appointment with the tech store and took it in they looked at it and let me know the battery had to be replaced and I would have to pay for it ! I knew something was wrong ! Got in touch with seller and was told the item was shipped and processed through Amazon warehouse so they had to handle it which I guess was understandable.! what I didn’t like was instead of them sending me a replacement ! I had to repurchase a new one from seller and Amazon had still not credited me back for the first order ! So im still waiting on my refund and they have the 1st laptop back already not sure why they won’t release my funds ! I would advised paying for the 2 yr protection after this happened when I ordered the 2nd time I for sure added it but I am happy and pleased with the 2nd MacBook I was sent I will update in about 2 months … update Laptop is still great i love it and battery is awesome i had to admit as of now i don't use it very often but everytime i do its great and battery ... show more

  • Great Buy For The Money!
Capacity: 128GB
The media could not be loaded. I have no complaints! (For now) For less than $200, I’d say this computer was a good buy. Mines came as described, excellent condition, was packaged securely and nicely. I have not one scratch or dent on mine. I used ChatGPT to give me a check list of things to check for on a refurbished computer. This laptop passed all tests, the only thing I’d say is that when I checked the battery health, there is a message saying service battery, I will keep my eye out on that, but so far, no issues with the battery and it has a great battery life. This laptop did not come with iMovie, and since it’s older, I had a hard time finding an iMovie that would be compatible for download, but ChatGPT helped me with that too. The key board works perfectly, I checked every key. So for now, I recommend purchasing, but everyone will have a different experience. ... show more

  • its a very solid 8/10
Capacity: 128GB
FOR $250 this is the bargain you cannot pass up!!!! Here's the meat and potatoes of it ... The Macbook Air which i purchased has the Apple quality i have gotten to know and love over the past 20 years of being an Apple Product User as the devices became more compact over the last 15 of those 20 Years i have purchased iMacs (2006, 2009, 2 iPhones ( 4,5,6,7,10, 11Pro, 14 Pro, 16 Pro) the Macbook ( yes the white one i started buying those when they came out around 2006/2007) and the Macbook Pro ( 2008-2017) and i have had the iPod Shuffle, iPod Touch ( 2011,2012, 2013, 2014) so i know the quality that these devices posssess as i am " not new to this" i just love love love the Apple Products and alll of the diffrent computers and phones they have at first they kind of are basic but as the years go by they evolve now onto the particular review of this product which is a 2017 13-Inch Macbook Air- it is refurbished and it was about 7 years old when i got it The Pros are that i updated it to the MacOSx from 2021 which is i believe the last Mac OSx it can be updated to for this model and it works great - the MAcbook is a CORE i5 Model but to tell you the truth when i use a MAc Computer they are innately more faster anyways so i dont get too cuaught up in buying the fanciest most spec'd out models i usually opt for teh "mid-range" however this time my MacBook Pro from 2017 went out on me and i just needed something since i travel a lot i value portable and compact devices PLUS I WANTED SOMETHING THAT STILL HAD THE USB 2.0/ 3.0 PORTS (non USB C) AND HAD A HEADPHONE JACK ( I THINK ITS DUMB TO HAVE A COMPUTER WITHOUT A HEADPHONE JACK) so i got this and do not regret it LET ME TELL YOU THIS IS MY FiRST MACBOOK AIR - I REMEMBER THINKING " CAN I REALLY GO FROM A MACBOOK PRO TO AN AIR- DONT THE AIR MODELS HAVE LESS LIKE SPEED AND STORAGE?" NEEDLESS TO SAY I GOT THIS AND I FELL IN LOVE- ITS LIGHTER AND THINNER - i may never go back to a MacBook Pro again who knows Now the only con i can think of ( besides the DENTS and theres a few of them like is the fact that the computer doesnt have the latest and greatest but thats all-right with me the DECREASED BATTERY on this ( oh the other con) is not the best like i will charge it to 100% and then the comouter will shut dowjn at like 48 percent or something i will get maybe like FOUR HOURS of BATTERY LIFE on this there have been times when i have gotten six hours out of it THE SPEED Just to put it in persepctive than i use this computer for about five hours each day and turning itn on the time from boot up to login to being on the internet is ONE MINUTE yes exactly SIXTY SECONDS the Core i5 Processor is absolutely a beast this thing is just of the charts in terms of its amazing capability - i can watch movies and there is no lag when it comes to streaming , stream songs and just really ZOOM THROUGH EVERYTHING LIGHTNING FAST PORTABILITY THIS PARTICULAR MACBOOK AIR IS LIGHTWEIGHT- the computer in all fairness does a slight heftiness to it however that is nothign compared to the MacBook Pro the 2017 Version i had which felt to be about 4 Pounds i dont know if it actualy was or not i know this thing feels to be ablout a pound maybe one and a half pounds anyways you can throw this beast into your backpack without it weighing you down SD CARD READER YES THIS COMPUTER ( MACBOOK AIR 2017) has a SD CARD READER which is good for a full-size SD Card- the SD Card is very handy for digital cameras - in fact i have a basic yet affordable KODAK EASYSHARE from 2011 which still works perfectly and the SD Card REader on this device makes for an excellent comapnion to that - the data in and output on here is just BLAZING FAST READ/ WRITE there's nothing like it and if the built in SD Reader doesnt work then i have several USB Card Readers which do the trick Heat the HEAT LEVEL on this laptop is moderate with for the most part the computer doesnt overheat however during times of charging or heavy use ( running more than a applications at once) i havent felt this thing get hot and a remedy to this would be to close a couple apps and then after whcih it works fine with no further heat level issues SOUND QUALITY the MacBook Air 2017 COre i5 Model that i have here has interanl speakers that when i compare it to my iMac ( my 2009 which is going strong - my kids seem to like it and havent complained) then the sound quality of these internal speakers is sloightly lower- i feel like the speakers on this device are " on the bottom" whereas the iMac the speakers are on the backside closer to where the USB Ports- overall this in terms of the speakers and the quality you ghet from the speakers on this thing is 9/10 DRUABILITy and overall impressions THE MacBook aIr is nowadays the "entry level"" Mac- really the Mac MINI is but the MacBook AIr is an entry-level laptop however it is exceeding that "entry-;level' the computer is fast, light, packable and the fact that it a 13.3 Display compared to the 11.6 Inch Models that were around during the 2014 Year then this is a wider palm rest area which makes way fro more comfortable computing especailly when typing long manuscripts, or even typing in general. The Backlit Keyboard adds that nice touch to the Apparatus and also is vbery handy at nught however it should be noted that having the Backlit Keyboard, utilizing it then you are consuming more battery so try to only use the backlit keyboard if you are in a darkened space. The Webcam on here is very nicely functional and is great for Zoom Meetings or Facetime calls with the Internal Microphone proving to be very rich and the other person can hear you very well. the charge tike for this device is between one to tow houras with the standby time being anywhere from8 Hiurs to 100 Hours just make sure before you put the computer to sleep to TURN OFF WI-FI and Bluetooth as well as closeout any applications you are not using via Activity Monitor. in addition to this as a ruke of thumb- turning down the brightness on your devices can extend battery life greatly ... show more

  • Refurbished Macbook is the way to go!
Capacity: 256GB
I received my Macbook and it worked effortlessly. I use mine for school. It is very light and I can carry it anywhere with me. The speed was fine, non-issue. The battery was also ok. The overall appearance looked good as well. I had a minor ding but I wasn't sure if it came that way or was it the fall from my bed. 😆 I love my Macbook! ... show more

I needed a laptop to back up raw files on several locations while traveling. I did not want to break the bank since I am usually editing on a desktop. I came across an older model of a Mac Book Air that had mostly good reviews and decided to try it out. It arrived within a week of ordering and looks like it is new. Screen quality is excellent and so far no issues whatsoever. I am very pleased with this purchase. ... show more
