Frequently asked questions

The M1 chip in the 2020 Apple MacBook Air is Apple's first chip designed specifically for Mac. It is based on ARM architecture, which leads to better performance and energy efficiency. Apple claims it has the world’s fastest integrated graphics in a personal computer, and delivers significantly better performance per watt than previous generation Macs.

A 'Renewed' MacBook Air is a pre-owned product that has been inspected and tested to work and look like new. The renewal process includes functionality testing, cleaning, inspection, and repackaging. The product comes with all relevant accessories, a minimum 90-day warranty and may arrive in a generic box. It is an excellent way to get a high quality product for a lower price.

The 13.3-inch screen size is perfect for those who value portability but still want enough screen real estate to comfortable work. This size is ideal for travelling, commuting and for people who frequently use their laptop in different locations. Additionally, despite it's reduced size, the MacBook Air’s high-resolution Retina Display ensures everything looks crisp and sharp.

The 2020 MacBook Air comes with 8GB of unified memory to support high-bandwidth tasks, and a fast 256GB SSD which allows quicker boot-ups and data transfer compared to traditional HDDs. The 8GB RAM helps in multitasking and running memory-intensive applications while 256GB SSD can easily accommodate your documents, photos, music, and some high-definition videos. Keep in mind, for massive raw video files or extensive collection of high-definition movies, you might run out of space and that's where external HDDs/SSDs or iCloud storage can come in handy.

  • First time Mac buyer, on the fence about purchasing brand new
Color: Silver Capacity: 8GB - 512GB Style: 8-core GPU
I was looking for a Mac to purchase for some entry-level music creation, mixing, production, etc - but also looking for something to just have for typical portable computing things I would find pretty inconvenient on a smartphone. Never owned a Mac before, so the choice fatigue was REAL. I purchased the 512GB storage, 8GB RAM model, and so far it is perfect for what I need. I have high standards for technology and performance, being in the IT field, and this laptop knocks it out of the park. The performance for what you pay for is incredible (and that's not to say this laptop is a budget system). The M1 chip more than keeps up with my audio workflows, multiple applications open, etc. MacOS is so optimized and balanced that you would never notice this device has 8GB of RAM. Initially I returned my first refurbished M1 air and got the new M3 air because I wasn't fully aware of what it was capable of. After using the M3 air for about a week, I realized it was actually TOO overpowered for what I am looking to use it for. Returned it, and got this refurbished M1 air. Bottom line, if you need something for light-to-medium creative work with amazing battery life, build quality, and something that just keeps going and going, this is a perfect choice. On to the refurbishing quality. It's perfect. The battery must've been replaced, because it has 100% health, which is awesome to see on a refurb system. The screen is perfect as well. Not even a micro scratch. Keyboard is perfect as well. All around, the system is like brand new. It was either VERY well taken care of by the previous owner, or the components were replaced to make it resellable. Either way, it's perfect in and out. Charger and cable included were aftermarket, however they are similar quality to the original charger, and work exactly the same. ... show more

  • Best deal out there
Color: Gold Capacity: 8GB - 512GB Style: 7-core GPU
I bought the “excellent” condition MacBook and couldn’t be more pleased. Arrived in less than 24 hours in pristine condition with no scratches or dings and 93% remaining battery capacity. For my dollar, this is the best bargain out there.

  • I like it
Color: Gold Capacity: 8GB - 256GB Style: 7-core GPU
Yall the battery life is good, i am a college student and on an average day i’ve used it from 10am - 4pm and the battery life is still great and i don’t need to charge it if am using it those times. I’ve accidentally dropped it twice on hard concrete and it didn’t break, i do have a screen protector on it but it didn’t crack. There is only one minor scratch that was on the corner of the laptop but that was how it was when the laptop came it doesn’t bother me tho but apart from that i love everything about it. ... show more

  • Great Mac for a second time User **Update** Returned Back to Seller
Color: Space Gray Capacity: 256GB Style: Space Gray
12/20/23 I've used a Mac back in 2016 but had to trade and get a new device cause it eventually started acting up/becoming slow. That's why I wanted to specifically get the M1 silicon cause I wanted to get back into it. Now thie Mac Air is thrilling awesome for a refurbished one, came with 100 charge Cycle Normal battery life, and a maximum capacity of 96% which I'll say that is Awesome and above the 80% mark. The body of the MBA has very minimal edge scratches that you barely notice unless you specifically pick it up and look at it. It came with a different charger than what Apple hands out but the charger is from one of apples licensed distributor as well. It has a 65W output which is brilliant. I have been using it for 4 days now and mostly coding; pycharm amd Vscode and editing musical pieces via ableton and GarageBand and I gotta say this 13.3inch m1 can handle its own without stress btw and still has space for more. Only thing I am currently battling is fingerprints on the screen like when opening which can be annoying sometimes but with a little microfiber cloth, it goes away anything else can easily remove it. Battery life with this is legit, I've had it for 4 days and only had to charge it twice; the day I setup and 2 days later after it dropped to 20%. My usage was daily for about 8 to 9hrs or 10 a day whilst actively coding, watching YouTube, preparing patches with mainstage or ableton and keeping these guys minimized and not closed whilst working some other applications. The day to day battery life is exactly what I want, stress of charging a PC in the day time is annoying enough as I have to move around a lot with it so this solves a great problem for me. I tested all the ports to make sure they are working and they all did, tried out all.my keys to make sure I had no lagging, no delayed keys or dead key which I had none. Bluetooth, wifi, airdrop, speakers, track pad, Webcam (not the greatest in dark lighting but still ok; don't bother me cause I use it once a blue moon). All in all I've tested things that could go wrong in a refurbished computer right out of the box so right now it's just seeing if it can last a month and more with my daily use without it going haywire or anything cause refund tends to do that but I have faith in this one that at least I'll be holding unto it a year and more before I do an upgrade. I'll drop an update 2 or 3 weeks into using it to compare my reviews. My seller was BuySPRY, awesome job with packaging and shipping and documentation. Definitely recommend y'all! I'll be giving updates before my 90 day mark in case anything does eventually happen which I'm hoping not. Update Jan 19 2024 Had to return the macbook air to get a refund cause I could not get a replacement. Reason I had to return is because after a couple weeks, I noticed whenever I plugged in the charger, it kept saying battery not charging even when I swapped Cords, check power outlet . It just kept saying battery not charging and maybe after 30 minutes stayed charging again mind you I'm not using the PC barely Anything running in the background. One point PC was closed completely on 19% and then I plugged it in and I heard the little tone that comes on when you plug it in. Only to show up an hr 30 minutes later and battery was still on 19% and did not even charge at all... still plugged in, outlet working fine. So I had to unplug, plug back unplug and back again before I could see progress in charging. I'm sorry I can't deal with that within a month of just owning it Who's to say what will happen 5 months down the line. Hence my reduced review to 3 stars. I guess it had an issue after all or maybe not but I can't have that within a month or so. ... show more
