I bought this Geek Squad Certified Refurbished MacBook Air because I wanted Apple power without Apple pricing, and honestly… this thing showed up like it had just come from a spa retreat. I don’t know what the Geek Squad did to it, but I’m convinced this MacBook has seen things. Maybe it once lived a double life as a coder’s sidekick. Maybe it survived a college student’s “just one more episode” binge marathon phase. Whatever its past, it has now entered its responsible era. Performance The M1 chip runs so fast that I’m 99% sure this laptop finishes tasks before I even think of them. I opened Safari and it practically whispered, “Already done, bestie.” My old laptop wheezed like it was climbing Everest every time I tried to open a PDF. This one jogs through multiple tabs like it’s training for a 5K. Appearance “Refurbished” had me nervous, but this thing showed up looking so clean it could pass as new. Honestly, it looks better than I do most days. Battery Life The battery lasts long enough that I’ve forgotten what a charger looks like. I swear I watched two movies, paid bills, wrote emails, AND panic-applied for three jobs I don’t want—all on one charge.

The computer is working excellent. Everything came in good condition is like new. No scratches or any visible damage. Totally recommended. The battery came with 100%

Nearly a year has passed since I purchased this updated MacBook Air M1 (2020), and I must say it has been a great investment. It appeared nearly brand new when it arrived, with no dents, scratches, or other damage. It retained the crisp, high-end Apple feel. The battery lasts forever, and it's incredibly fast for daily tasks like streaming, schoolwork, and browsing. It still feels dependable and seamless after all this time. Unquestionably a fantastic bargain for a brand-new laptop.

Bought this refurbished MacBook M1 for my wife and we’re really happy with it. It looks and feels like brand new — no scratches, super clean, and everything works perfectly. Battery life is solid, performance is fast and smooth. Great value for the price. Shipping was quick and it came well-packaged. Highly recommend!

This items is excellent! A little older than I wanted but not bad. Speed, battery life, and display are great. I can text anyone who has an iPhone (I miss being able to text anyone from my computer)

The M1 Macs, released in 2020, marked a significant turning point for Apple computers. They were the first to feature Apple's own custom-designed ARM-based M1 chip, which replaced the Intel processors used in previous Macs. This transition resulted in a dramatic leap in performance and efficiency. Pros: * Blazing-fast performance: The M1 chip delivers exceptional speed and responsiveness, making everyday tasks and demanding workflows feel incredibly smooth. * Exceptional battery life: M1 Macs offer significantly longer battery life compared to their Intel predecessors, allowing for extended use without needing to plug in. * Quiet operation: The M1's efficiency translates to less heat generation, eliminating the need for noisy cooling fans in many models. * Seamless compatibility: Rosetta 2 technology allows most existing Mac apps to run smoothly on M1 Macs, even if they haven't been specifically updated. * Excellent price-to-performance ratio: M1 Macs offer incredible value for the performance they deliver. Cons: * Limited RAM: Some M1 Macs have a maximum of 16GB of RAM, which may be a limitation for certain professional workflows. * Compatibility issues: While Rosetta 2 handles most apps well, some older or specialized software may not be fully compatible with the M1 architecture. * Limited external display support: Early M1 Macs could only support one external display, though newer models have addressed this limitation. Overall: The M1 Macs represent a major advancement in computing, offering a compelling combination of performance, efficiency, and value. They are an excellent choice for a wide range of users, from casual users to creative professionals. While there are some limitations, the pros far outweigh the cons, making M1 Macs a highly recommended option.

I’ve had this MacBook Air M1 for 3 weeks now and so far so good. It looks and performs like I purchased it brand new. At first I was very skeptical about buying a refurbished item but I’m glad I took the plunge. It was in mint condition with no blemishes. It runs powerfully and the battery life has really great run time. The only con was that I ordered it in Space Grey but received it in Rose Gold. But because of the huge savings and the fact that it was in new like condition, I decided to keep it as is. I would highly recommend any refurbished item that’s Geek Squad Certified.

This was my first MacBook ever and I was excited. The battery like was at 85% which wasn’t bad, and you can see basic usage of the laptop like little bitty dust in the keyboard but the apple charger was kinda gross but it works. I love it though. Didn’t have any visible damage, just 1 or 2 ever so tiny chips that I have to remember where they are. I’m glad I got a good one after reading many horror stories about geek squad. Now we’re inseparable from eachother, I love it some much, it’s in really good shape.

Ordered this MacBook Air to replace a 2014 model. Needed a newer model with an operating system that would work with the new school Blackboard operating requirements. Received laptop and charger in the box. Great condition, with minor scratches on the top left corner of the case and on the bottom. Screen in great condition, along with keyboard and trackpad. Battery life is great. Use is primarily for online school work, and internet browsing.

Bought it as a gift, still holds up nice in 2026, great screen, runs everything smoothly and some basic games work on it well aswell ( minecraft, roblox, etc )

Works great. It came packaged very secure. the charger is a brand new charger. the screen works amazing as well as all of the buttons. the only thing that is “messed up” is the anti glare screen, and it’s just a few small marks where it got messed up. there are a few dings and scratches but nothing deep and noticeable that i couldn’t just blame on myself! It was an amazing price and it’s an amazing computer for being refurbished

It’s a Mac. Always works out of the box. Processor is lightening fast. Wish I had more memory but that’s an easy work around

The MacBook M1 air was such a significant upgrade from the Intel based macs. Battery life on this machine is fantastic. Such a powerful laptop for a low price!

Okay so I apparently brought a macbook off of best buy’s geek squad and was a little skeptical amd worried a little bit because it might hbe tears and rips. Suprisingly it isnt. It came brand new condition and I finally needed a new laptop to start my fall semester for school. I will say when I first arrived at best buy for it. I was so freakin excited when I saw the girl come out with it. And opened it, it was so pretty! I am in love.

Arrived in great condition - no sign of heavy use and low battery cycles (<50). If you're pondering whether to go with the "old" M1 and if 8GB ram is enough, I'm happy to report that this package handles ~20ish Chrome tabs, some light scripting in Python/shell, and some streaming (Spotify/YouTube in the background) really well. The memory pressure and the CPU load stays pretty low and I have not noticed any lag. I did some photo editing and it handled that with minimal effort as well. All this while also rendering an external UWQHD display (3440x1440)! The growing theme with this laptop is that it's much faster, snappier/effortless, with much longer battery life than my past one. For reference, my last laptop was a 2017 MacBook Pro with an i7, 16GB RAM, and a dedicated graphics card. I highly recommend it! It is great, and doubly so at this price point.

Good condition considering it being used, just a few scratches in the chassis, works great for productivity and the screen is very clear and bright.

The best laptop I have purchased in years :)! I live outside the country and this machine has impressed me with the battery life and speed and features I was not expecting! No issues whatsoever.

Great MacBook, had a small dent and scratch but I purchased a nice MacBook cover. Very fast and clean display

Absolutely love it! This was my first MacBook I have ever owned and I have no complaints, battery life is perfect! It lasts a long time! It came in perfect condition no big scratches or anything like that, that I noticed anyway! Would definitely recommend!

The MacBook is perfect for what I need and a great way to step into Apple’s ecosystem. Because I already use an iPhone, sharing photos and videos is simple and convenient. Even though the laptop is four years old, it still performs very well for my everyday use.
