Was This A Good Deal? (M1 Max Mistake!)

[famidog]

I was on Amazon this week and ordered a refurbished 16 inch MacBook Pro M1 Pro with 16GB of RAM for $1260 or something around there. Fast forward a few days and I open the box. Inside is a prestine 16” MacBook Pro with M1 Max and 32GB of memory.

So either I bought the wrong thing or they made a mistake. This thing is flawless and has 100% battery health.

Did I do good here? I wanted something on the cheap that would last for light photoshop usage and casual usage, on the biggest laptop screen Apple sells.

You got an M1 Max with 32GB RAM for $1200? Yeah, I'd say that's a great deal.

You got an upgraded SoC and double the RAM - most people would call that a win every single time...

I did finally notice something a tiny bit off. A very small dent on the back of the unit. It doesn't matter though. It's perfect.

I've been working with computers for quite a while and have even assembled a few PCs myself. The appearance of the computer has never mattered to me, as long as it performed flawlessly.

Mind sharing which seller you purchased this through, perhaps RocketDrop Renewed or Loop-Mobile?
