This 14-Inch M1 MacBook Pro Is Now on Sale for $999
There’s no shortage of great laptops on the market, but few can boast the same long-term performance as the MacBook Pro, especially when it doesn’t retail for $999 . This Grade A-rated refurbished model is nearly flawless, featuring the same 14.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR display, 1TB SSD, and 16GB of unified storage that made it a favorite when it launched. And thanks to the M1 Pro chip, you get 10 CPU cores and a 16-core GPU that can still outperform many newer models, especially in creative workflows and multitasking.
It’s also one of the best-designed laptops on the market. The display is crisp and bright, the keyboard is comfortable to type on, and the port selection includes everything most people still use. There are three Thunderbolt 4 ports, MagSafe charging, HDMI, a headphone jack, and even an SDXC memory card slot. Battery life is also impressive, with up to 17 hours of video playback, which means fewer hunts for a power outlet throughout the day. Plus, the laptop runs macOS Sequoia out of the box, with support for the next version already confirmed.
If you want to avoid a Microsoft 365 subscription and do all your creative, productivity, and entertainment work on a Mac that can hold its own against the competition, this might be the one for you. It doesn’t have the latest M3 processor, but unless you’re doing massive 3D renderings or editing 8K video, the M1 Pro should be more than up to the job. And when you consider that a new version with similar specs will set you back over $2,500, this refurbished laptop, which retails for $999, doesn’t feel like a compromise, but rather a smart decision.
