- Processor Model: Intel 10th Generation Core i5 (Your computer's processor is like its brain. Working in combination with system memory, the power of the processor determines the complexity of software you can run, how many programs you can have open at the same time, and how fast those programs will run. Most computers feature an AMD, Intel or Snapdragon processor.)

Wish I got a MacBook Pro instead - M2 better
Physically in great condition. Would be great for basic needs. Battery life moderate. I produce music. Down graded to air with M1 chip. M2 better. Giving used car vibes now. Or maybe it just best for basic needs.

Expert Service, Unbeatable Price
Very happy with my purchase. It came in quickly and was exactly as described. I had purchased this MacBook for the ease of photo editing as I already had an iPad also purchased from Best Buy about two years prior. Best Buy has always come through for me whether I was purchasing new, refurbished, or open box. 10/10 Experience Would purchase again & would recommend
