Q: QuestionWhat is the warranty period provided by Best Buy for this Refurbished product ?(0 answers)
Asked by Abhi
Q: QuestionWhich should I buy? A MacBook M1 with 512 GB or a M2 with 256?(1 answer)
A: AnswerM1. I was watching a YouTube reviewer months ago and he demonstrated that the M2 runs in such a way that it bogs down in some situations, even slower than the M1. This is due to only 8GB of RAM. The 16GB RAM M2 is okay. So if you can't get a 16GB RAM M2, it's better to get the 8GB RAM M1.Answered by Steve

Worst experience
I will not buy any refurbished item from Best Buy online. I bought the laptop online. The charger came with laptop thatwas not compatible. It needs usb-c type. They sent MagSafe type charger. I am not sure how they can send a laptop with different charger. Online support and in store support is so bad that they don’t replace the charger. I need to buy a new charger. I don’t get it. Don’t but refurbished item online from Best Buy. Bad experience.
