New York, NY — Apple has listed a refurbished M3 MacBook Pro laptop with a significant discount for the first time. The laptops have been serviced by Apple and come with the same warranty as a new machine. They are also eligible for the same levels of AppleCare and are available in limited stock.
The M3 MacBook Pro is expected to debut in late March, and Apple already offers the next generation of Apple Silicon with October’s M3 Pro and M3 Max MacBook Pro models. While it may not reach the same power and performance levels as the M3 Pro or M3 Max, it will still have better performance than the M3 MacBook Air.
The price of the upcoming M3 MacBook Air is still unknown, but the refurbished M3 MacBook Pro, which is currently priced at $1,599, is $50 away from the expected price of the new MacBook Air. Whether the slightly cheaper M3 MacBook Pro with around 20% more performance is worth considering is a personal decision, but its availability may be an advantage for some buyers.
The refurbished M3 MacBook Pro is available now, and with a $240 discount on the list price, it may be a viable option for those looking for a good deal on a MacBook Pro. Stocks are limited, so potential buyers should keep an eye on availability.
