MacBook Pro under the hood

At the heart of this model is a 10th Generation Intel Core i5 processor running at a base speed of 2.0 gigahertz and capable of turbo boosting to 3.8 gigahertz. This processor works alongside 16 gigabytes of LPDDR4X RAM and a 512 gigabyte solid state drive to deliver smooth multitasking, rapid application launches, and quick access to large files. Intel Iris Plus integrated graphics support image editing, video playback, and casual gaming without significant lag.

The 13.3 inch Retina display presents a native resolution of 2560 by 1600 pixels and has Apple’s True Tone technology, which automatically adjusts the display’s color temperature based on surrounding light conditions. No more squinting at your screen in the dark. This keeps text sharp and visuals vibrant, whether you’re viewing documents or streaming video. The backlit Magic Keyboard is responsive, and Touch ID gives you a secure way to log in without a password.

Battery life extends to up to ten hours of web browsing or video playback on a single charge. This model has four Thunderbolt 3 ports that support charging, data transfer, and video output.

As a Grade A refurbished unit, this MacBook Pro has been inspected and tested to meet Apple’s quality standards with virtually no signs of wear. The most noticeable sign it’s a refurb is the price, which was just reduced.

That’s how you can get a MacBook Pro on sale for $449.99.
