Apple's MacBooks are some of the best-selling laptops in the world. They're known for their sleek design, fast performance, long-lasting battery life and high-quality displays. They're also equipped with a variety of consumer-friendly features that make them great for anything from Internet browsing to watching videos to creative work.
If you want a MacBook but don't to spend £1,000+ for a new one, Back Market has you covered. We have plenty of great deals on MacBooks for under £500 here.
And the best part is, you won't be sacrificing quality at all. There are models from just a few years ago that are still in excellent condition and offer top-notch performance. They've all been expertly refurbished and restored to a like-new condition as well.
So don't worry about breaking the bank or risk buying from a private seller -- there are plenty of great options for less than 500 quid that'll still give you that Apple experience.
Whether or not it is worth buying a cheap MacBook for under 500 pounds depends on your needs and budget. Refurbished tech is a good deal if you want to spend less and don't need the latest bells and whistles.
The refurbished MacBooks on this page are all pre-owned laptops that have been restored to a like-new condition. They were inspected, cleaned, had parts replaced as necessary, and then they were tested to ensure 100% functionality. Once that's confirmed, they're then resold and given a second life with a new owner.
On Back Market, we sell these devices at up to 50% off compared to new prices. We also provide a 12-month warranty, free delivery and 30 day returns. So if for some reason there is any issue with your device, you're well covered.
So yes, we think it's worth buying a refurbished MacBook for cheap. There are new options with updated features, but they're often overkill for the average consumer. Unless you have advanced or professional needs, you're perfectly fine saving money and being just as happy with a slightly older and refurbished device.
