Why students are so excited about this budget MacBook
What kind of computer do you get a college student? That brand new top-of-the-line PC could be fun, but it’s also wildly expensive and begging to become another distraction. If you want a low-cost, efficient option, check out this MacBook Pro on sale for $394.97 (reg. $899). There aren’t many left, so if it sounds right for you, hop on it before they’re gone.
What can it do?
This MacBook Pro is powered by an Intel Core i7 processor and 16GB of RAM, so it’s more than ready to handle assignments, research, and even a few late-night Netflix sessions. With 512GB of SSD storage, there’s plenty of space for class projects, photos, and favorite apps. It has a few years on it, so gaming might not be an option, but for students who need to limit distractions, that might not be a bad thing.
The 15.4-inch Retina display ensures that everything looks sharp and vibrant, whether you’re typing up papers or streaming educational videos. Plus, the battery life lasts up to 9 hours, so students can tackle a full day of classes without trying to find a spare outlet in a packed classroom.
The Grade “B” refurbished rating means this MacBook shows a little wear, but it’s nothing a case can’t cover. Bonus: a few scuffs might mean whoever gets this computer will feel fine bringing it with them everywhere they need it instead of leaving it home to keep it safe.
Amazon can’t beat this price.
