2020 Apple MacBook Air with Apple M1 Chip (13.3 inch, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD Storage) (QWERTY) Silver (Renewed)

I must say, I’m pleasantly surprised. This MacBook was in perfect condition and looks amazing. It was packaged appropriately. The charger is not quality but you can find a Walmart brand100 watt charger for under $30. I am not worried about the charger, and if I was, it would most definitely be cancelled out by how pristine this MacBook is. I had the item shipped to a UPS Access Point and it took a couple days longer but it was expected. What really surprised me is that it was shipped on a Tuesday and made it across the country in a day. In researching the cost of shipping something this size overnight, I was shocked at how much this company paid to make sure I got it by the quoted shipping date. The battery health is 88%, which again I was pleasantly surprised. I also love how much faster this M1 chip MacBook is versus my Early 2020 MacBook with Intel. It’s like night and day. Another highlight is that I basically live on my MacBook with work and I loved how fast it charged and how much usage I got out of 1 single charge. It beats having to always plan where I’m going to charge my laptop (airport, plane, car, etc.). As with any MacBook, the ease and speed at which I could jump from window to window was crazy fast. I don’t know how this company makes any money because of how pristine the MacBook looks along with them overnighting it to me to make the quoted shipping date. Regardless, thank you so much Platinum Deals via Amazon, I hope to do business with you again!

It’s been 3 months since I purchased this refurbished MacBook Air. Works amazing like it’s new. Battery is still holding a charge like a bed battery. Sound is great. Keyboard is cleaned with tight keys. And the body of the laptop is super clean.

I used an exact replica of this model (just an 8GB/25GB unit) for two years for remote work. It might have crashed twice in that entire time, even with hundreds of browser tabs at a time (most apps were cloud-based). With that experience in mind, I think a 16/256 configuration M1 MacBook Air is more than sufficient for most tasks a user is going to need this for. I seriously lucked out with this machine; getting the maximum 16GB RAM for it adds a performance boost that you don't get from the stock configuration. Of course, the space isn't enough if you want to use Adobe Creative Suite or big collections of Microsoft Office 365, but I have used those apps on M1 Macs before and the computing power is more than sufficient by itself. I have an external M.2 SSD that I plan to use for external storage.I was fortunate enough to get one in pristine condition with MacOS Sequoia 15.0 installed, with 3 months of AppleCare+ (this really surprised me). Look for this when you get yours! I've already fully updated the software. External and internal condition was virtually mint condition - no screen issues at all, no scratches or dings anywhere on the body, no keyboard issues at all. I definitely did not expect this. Luck of the draw. It's perfect for what I intend for its use. For the price I got ($480!), so long as you get a good unit, it's unbeatable. Who needs a Chromebook? Easy choice for me. Sure, I'd like MagSafe and more ports, but man this thing is sweet.

Please note that if you purchase this, it might get shipped by fedex and you will have to sign for it. This wasn't able to work for me due to my work schedule so I had to have held somewhere. This came mostly clean. Had nice scrach on the logo and a couple of surface scratches but that is normal with a used/refurbished product. I will be tossing a dbrand skin over it but it came looking mostly good. One thing I will fault is the hinge part had a decent amount of dirt in it. Something I think could've been cleaned better in my opinion. The battery was at 91% which is pretty good for something this old. All of the keys work fine, I couldn't locate any scratches on the screen itself. It came with a charger that I haven't used at the time of writing. People have noted that theirs came with a 3rd party charger. Mine seems to be 1st party (very scratched up and used looking but expected) but came with a 3rd part cable. Packaging was good, it was wrapped in very stiff bubble wrap, i do wish they had put it in a bag just in case of water damage but overall, it was fine.I would recommend this to anyone who wants to save a buck on a great device but wants some sorta warranty from one of the big chains. I was satisfied

This Macair looks new. I love it. In perfect condition.

The MacBook has no scratches on the screen, and all the functions are fully functional. The only downside is that there are some dents in the exterior, and the Apple logo is completely opaque or scratched. However, for me, the appearance is not that important. I care the most that it works properly.

I’ve been using this refurbished MacBook Air M1 for about three weeks now, and I must say, I’m pleasantly surprised by the quality of the device. While it does show some signs of use, they are minimal considering that the laptop is around five years old.The screen and keyboard arrived in excellent condition, and one of the biggest highlights for me was the battery. It had only 96 cycles, which is impressively low given the device’s age.My only regret is choosing the 128GB storage option. Even though I use the laptop for everyday tasks, the storage feels quite limited by today’s standards. Looking back, the price difference for the 256GB model wasn’t that significant, and it would have been a better investment.Overall, though, this is a great purchase for anyone looking for a reliable and well-maintained refurbished MacBook Air M1!

Works fine, Battery is 93% but I just can't ignore the strange glue stains on the display. Tons of minor scratches on the screen but they're not visible when the screen is on. I gotta return this. Battery seems very solid. There was dirt around the hinge and keyboard, and I have no idea how someone can sell a laptop and not do a basic cleaning.
