Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the condition and performance of the Geek Squad Certified Refurbished MacBook Pro, frequently citing its excellent value for the price. Many appreciate its ease of use, but some users have noted concerns regarding battery life and occasional screen or cosmetic issues. The refurbished MacBooks generally perform well, handling demanding tasks effectively. However, heat generation is a concern for some users.

    It was as described and I’ve had no problems with it. While I was hesitant to purchase a refurbished I reluctantly decided to and I wasn’t disappointed.

    Within a month of having this “refurbished like new” laptop, it no longer functions to any usable amount and the screen is covered in glitches and pixelated lines. I brought it to Geek Squad from the store that I purchased it from and they were unable to offer me any kind of help. Thanks!!!

    Totally unexpected from Best Buy to do this, buying items from Amazon and selling it to me as a Best Buy customer which isn’t even working (MacBook). the people at customer service on Geeks aren’t even friendly specially one lady with black hair on 12/20/24 at around 4:00 pm who was acting like a boss and she doesn’t have any idea about customer handling. I was so mad a company like Best Buy has this kind of stuff. From now on I am not advising anyone to go and buy from Best Buy.

    Wouldnt waste my time, while waiting for the macbook, they delayed the package by 3 days. And once i finally received the macbook, it was locked by Amazon inc. Meaning you would have to work for the company in order to use the laptop. After brining it in the store they said there is no way to reset it, they didn't wanna price match me, or try and find me a similar macbook! All i could do was return it after waiting all this time.

    This product may not be for you. If you don't have an external SSD or a cloud service. If you have a board problem, you will lose your all data. Speed is not faster than my old mid-2014 Macbook Pro Retina 15.4". You cannot upgrade SSD. Because this item NAND Flash memory on board. I bought this item because of my younger sister. Wish me a piece of luck to keep as much as longer. Thank you.

    Terrible. It doesn’t turn on after 80 days and I had declined warranty from bestbuy and apple ( because is an older computer). We took to a technical assistance and they told us the charger is not original
