Prime Day deals are in full swing. You could grab a brand new laptop from Prime Day MacBook deals, but that will still cost you a pretty penny. One way to save even more money on top of Prime Day deals is by shopping refurbished. Walmart is currently selling a restored 11.6-inch MacBook for $200, down from $250. This sale might not stick around all Prime Day.
Why you should buy the MacBook Air bundle
The MacBook Air featured in this Walmart offer is an MJVM2LL model, which was released back in 2015. While such a long-ago date may not sound appealing on paper, this is actually restored Apple product. That means the computer was put through a multi-point inspection by Walmart, with repairs and restorations provided on an as-needed basis. In a way, it’s almost like owning a brand-new MacBook Air, as long as you don’t mind an older OS (macOS Yosemite in this case) and CPU.
Of course, a dual-core Intel i5 is nothing to shake a stick at, and before Apple decided to make their own processors, Intel was the Apple CPU of choice. Delivering max clock speeds of 1.6GHz and supported by 4GB of RAM, you’ll have plenty of power for things like everyday web browsing, word processing, and watching HD videos. This Air model is equipped with a 11.6-inch Retina display that delivers a 2,560 x 1,600 pixel spread. Expect great colors and contrast, as well as impressive brightness levels.
And as mentioned this bundle also comes with a pair of wireless earbuds and a wireless mouse. Ports include two USB-A, two Thunderbolt 2 connections, plus an SDXC card reader.
We’re going to see a lot of MacBook deals and plenty other Apple deals in the lead-up to back-to-school shopping, so taking advantage of this bundle now could save you from facing the crowds.
