    Need help choosing a laptop

    Are the people who sell refurbished MacBook pros on eBay reputable? They advertise a 3 year warranty, and upgrades. Here is one listing, for instance: https://m.ebay.com/itm/MacBook-Pro-15-Pre-Retina-3-YEAR-WARRANTY-Core-i7-2-0-16GB-1TB-OSX-2017-/172978991490 I can’t really afford a brand new...

    iPhone X iPhone X in the Apple US Refurbished store?

    Hi, I am considering buying an iPhone X refurbished. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be available in the Refurbished store. When do you think it will arrive there? Could it be before May? I have heard that some products are available as early as 3 months after release, but the iPX is taking...

    Warranty on refurbished AW purchased from Best Buy?

    I noticed today that Best Buy sells refurbished Apple Watches. They advertise a 90-day warranty on the product page, and I'm wondering if that means there is no warranty at all directly from Apple. I'm also curious if AppleCare+ can be purchased for these devices (refurbished AW from BB).

    Hi everyone, I was contemplating buying a refurbished Apple TV from the Apple Store and was wondering if it's better than getting it for the full £149? It's currently £119 so £30 saving but i wanted to know if it's durable as I wouldn't want it to break after a year once the warranty runs out...

    iPhone 7/Plus Is there a date for refurbished iPhone 7 on the Apple Store?

    Has there been any word or hints regarding when Apple is going to sell refurbished iPhone 7's? Apple started selling refurbished iphone 6s' around Nov 8, 2016, so hopefully they will do the same with the 7.

    PSA: returning and rebuying is better than exchanging

    I just want to let others know about issue another forum member here had. They bought an iPhone x with a yellow screen tint. He had exchanged it once. He got the same yellow screen. He wanted to do another exchange but Apple refused because in their opinion there was no problem. He then asked...

    first AW on a budget? Used?

    I have never had an AW. I’m 64 and have been walking to loose weight. I’d like to have an AW but they are so expensive on a retired budget. I saved hard to possibly get the ipX but might have to wait until next year. I need some feedback please. Since I’m just using basic health functions...

    Macbook Pro 15 Touch Bar 2016 vs 2017

    I am looking to upgrade my 2012 MacBook pro. In Korea the Macs are super expensive. However, a 2016 model with 516GB SD just popped up in the refurbished section. It's about $600 cheaper than a 2017 model. Is it worth it? How much of a difference are the 2016 models vs 2017? The most power...

    Refurb w/ Touch Bar or New MBP - Better Buy?

    Hey guys, Just wanted your opinions. 128gb isn't going to cut it for me. I could either get a new low end mbp (no touchbar) with the ssd upgrade or get a refurbished mbp w touch bar for the same price. Obviously, the touch bar is kind of cool but not really what I'm interested in, I would...

    Hey, I’m really interested in the new 2016 MacBook Pro base model without the touch bar (I’m not so keen on the touch bar apart from touch ID, but hopefully touch ID would be synced up to the iPhone for logging into sites or any laptop similar to the apple watch) but I was looking for some...

    MacAir vs. MacBook: Do MacRumors 'Don't Buy' recommendations apply when buying used?

    I need to buy either an Air or a MacBook, though I wish I could wait for the next update instead. If I get an Air, I'd go for a refurbished or used one -- likely the 2015 or '16 13” 1.6 GHz i5. It goes for $849-$899 (with 8GB/128GB) when it shows up from Apple or Gazelle. To approximately match...
