The latest MacBooks are designed to do a lot. In fact, they might be able to do more than you really need them to. If you just need a laptop for light work or casual browsing, consider saving yourself some money (and cutting down on electronic waste) by buying refurbished.
During this limited-time Cyber Monday sale, you can get a pre-owned 13.3-inch MacBook Air for only $299.97, shipped for free.
If you've never bought refurbished before, here's what you need to know: Yes, this device is pre-loved, but it's wiped clean inside and out and restored to working order. This particular model is Grade "B" refurbished, meaning there may be scuffing or other signs of light use on the casing. For these cosmetic imperfections, you're saving hundreds.
The MacBook Air in question is a 2015 model, and it comes with all the features that made it a hit when it initially launched. That includes a 128GB SSD that you can use for important documents, family photos, movies, or anything you want to store locally.
Meanwhile, the 13.3-inch display renders everything from vacation snaps to games in glorious detail. An Intel HD Graphics 6000 GPU enhances viewing, and when it's time to work, a 1.6GHz Intel Core i5 provides the processing power required.
This MacBook Air can also seamlessly connect to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth-compatible devices. Weighing under 3 pounds, it's always available to join you on your travels.
Now through Cyber Monday, PCMag readers can get this 13.3-inch refurbished MacBook Air for just $299.97 plus free shipping (reg. $1,109).
