Great video! Every Apple product I’ve ever owned since 2010 has been refurbished. From to watches. I used to work at CompUSA and learned that refurbished isn’t open box 📦 like most people think it is.

@RafaelLudwig Год назад

Gotta save a buck every chance we can, but also maintaining the quality! Thanks Guil!

@realdjaykay Год назад

What does that mean

@kotygoroschkostudios8326 Год назад

Thank you Rafael. You convinced me. I had been thinking a lot about the safety of apple refurbished products but now that I know that they are basically brand new products I have no questions anymore.

@josephpepe2607 6 месяцев назад

Yeah because if there’s one thing that runs through everyone’s mind it’s the safety of refurbished products

@maryharwood6360 Год назад

Apple is the only place I use for Refurbished. I don’t trust other places and I don’t think other places offer AppleCare with their renewed(Amazon)

@Huss417 Год назад

I am also someone that has only bought refurbished products from Apple for years. Latest purchase was the IPhone 13 Pro Max. It popped up and I grabbed it.

@gogrape9716 Год назад

In Jan 2023 I purchased a 27 inch 5K iMac refurbished. Got the BIG screen I wanted plus a huge computer and a new mouse and keyboard for about one third off. I could not be any more happy. This is also a huge quality control mechanism for Apple providing insight into material and assembly issues. My first but not my last...smiles..

@RafaelLudwig Год назад

Enjoy your iMac! Thanks for watching and the comment!

@zzkeokizz 2 года назад

I love refurb. You get an iPad with a 512 drive and you can get something more for cheaper.

@emilsecker7881 2 года назад

Agreed. I got my 2019 16 inch MacBook Pro refurbished and had a great experience

@crisfehr Год назад

Yup - Bought the older 17" Macbook Pro in 2008 as a refurb: used it for 5 years and then sold it on Ebay. Solid machines!

@Josh_Sattin 2 года назад

Great information Rafael! I was always curious what "refurbished" meant. I wonder how different that is for other manufacturers besides Apple.

@benji888578 Год назад

I know you were mainly talking about Mac’s but, one main thing about apple refurbished iPhones or iPads is that they come with a new battery and new outer case, so, if it was a returned item, at least you have a new battery. No one else does this, at least not with refurbished apple devices. I know because after Apple cancelled the iPhone 13 mini I decided this was my last chance to get one, and I really wanted an apple refurbished one, as I will use it long term and wanted a new battery, I couldn’t find but one company that said they put new batteries in refurbished products, but, it didn’t look to me like that included apple iPhones, and apple hasn’t had any in stock since the iPhone 15 event, so I found a brand new one and purchased it. I have purchased Apple refurbished devices in the past and they have been like new and like you said backed by apple warranty and you can add AppleCare if you so desire (I highly recommend aaplecare for any Mac, I had a lemon years ago and they finally replaced it more than 2 years into 3 yr apple care warranty, and because of changes in the lineup I got a bit of an upgrade as well…for free, (they kept the box though).

@KeifferJamesM 11 месяцев назад

The discount price is basically the amount you have to pay for apple care plus. So in that regard, getting an essentially brand new apple product and “free” apple care is a plus. Ive always been a stickler about buying things new, but in cases like this, its kind of a no brainer

@paultiffet8183 Год назад

I have an important question : how to know in advance (before purchase) the number of write cycles already performed on the internal ssd in a refurbished Macbook? Because this number of write cycles is directly related to the lifespan of a Macbook.

@johnnyvimagery1178 Год назад

Just grabbed a 16" Macbook Pro M2 Max fully decked out with a 4TB SSD for almost $1K less than the sticker price - plus it gets shipped and delivered more than week earlier. Win, win, win!

@bradbell4022 Год назад

Valuable info! Just got a refurb iphone. I think computational photography is one of the most compelling developments in cameras. Was gonna buy iPhone 14 Pro for camera - so maxed out storage - but it was approaching £2,000, which doesn't compare well to cinema cameras, action cameras or computers. Finally decided it's not the right time and got 2022 SE refurb for £200!🤣😍 (I had an iPhone 4😜) My next Mac will be refurb. It's like having an alternative to eBay without the old computers and high prices

@JackHackett1 Год назад

I hear they put new outer casing, buttons etc on was the screen all good not scratched etc?

@AivarsMeijers 2 года назад

Interesting and make sense. If I ever live in a country with Apple Store, I will look for refurbished models first.

@RafaelLudwig 2 года назад

You are so right, it's not everywhere, should have made that clearer. Thanks Aivars!

Hey Ricardo!

@RogerAVHansen 2 года назад

Don’t have the refurbished deals in Norway unfortunately..😢 but hopefully some day 😊

@RafaelLudwig 2 года назад

Yeah you are right, I should have made that more clear in the video.

@RodrigoPolo 2 года назад

Here is a trick, because Apple doesn't sell refurbished outside the US, well doesn't sell anything outside the US where they don't have stores, they have an IP filter, they do not send to P.O. Boxes and do not accept international credit/debit cards; the first thing is to have some trusted friend living in the US 😂 obviously… then, money transfer to him, he make the purchase, and send it you you in the way you like, I bough a Mac Pro Late 2013 in that way around 2014, I transfer the money to a trusted friend and with what I saved in customs, I traveled to Florida, had a time in the parks, and get my Mac Pro back to my country 😂 now I have US debit card, and my friend address ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Also notice, in the US Apple has a program where they receive your old Mac and give you credit for your next purchase, I got my first M1 using that program.

@guitarest3 2 месяца назад

With my veterans 10% discount, most of the new is cheaper than the refurbished. Also places like Best Buy offer prices below refurbished for new products.

@HabiburRahman-xs9gb Год назад

great video...simple informative and short. perfect

@RafaelLudwig Год назад

Glad you think so! Thanks for watching and the comment!

@jimkenayalacamasita4437 Год назад

When you buy refurbished, does it comes with the box as new ?

@RafaelLudwig Год назад

Yes, it’s a new box with no print on it. Thanks for watching and the comment Jim!

@Mxandr Год назад

Oh yea! Loved Apple’s Refurbished products! Bought myself a Series 3 Apple Watch during the first half of the pandemic, came super fast and the Watch performance was incredible!

@alsavied Год назад

Thanks, you helped me a lot with this video

@cylack Год назад

Interesting. The one time I bought refurbished from Apple I had a bad experience. I bought the original Macbook Air in 2009 and 4 months later the video was buggy. It was too late to return.

@Kunalmpawar Год назад

It comes with 1yr warranty

@AJ-ue8ny Год назад

Does the model number start with N? Since it's refurbished?

@daiki4145 8 месяцев назад

It start with F

Does anyone know if you can trade in your iPhone for another iPhone when buying refurbished?

@josephpepe2607 6 месяцев назад

No it’s not new lol

@RodrigoPolo 2 года назад

Sounds good, doesn't work like that, I have bough some refurbished macs, Mac Pro 2013 had some issues, the warranty worked though, but this only works in the US or any place with Apple Stores, not overseas, that is where I live 😂

@RafaelLudwig 2 года назад

Yeah you are right, it's not perfect but has worked 3 times for me. Thanks for watching and the comment Rodrigo!

@ayanliaqat3218 Год назад

That’s the thing. You have to get it directly from apple. Other refurb stuff is not worth it.

Doe refurbished usually is just factory reset and cleaning, Battery has already decreased alot, especially on phones.

They put brand new batteries in them👍🏻

I work for apple. You are completely off mark on returns. Vast majority of refurbished stock is not from the factory. They are return in that 14 days. Staying they come from the factory is not correct.

@Donilan Год назад

@Donilan Год назад

@@Kunalmpawar how many time the battery went from 100 to 0 and back to 100. That is 1 cycle

Are the refurbished Apple Watch still water-resistant?

@johnowow 4 месяца назад

Typing this on my Apple refurbished M3 Pro MBP. Can confirm, aside from an extremely tiny scratch on the underside, this is a practically new MacBook. Came with only 7 cycles on the battery, and hasn't had any hiccups in the past month and a half that I've owned it. I enjoyed my $300 savings for sure lol.
