One of the first things you'll notice about refurbished products is the price - not only are refurbished cheaper than their brand new counterparts, you'll also be able to get an older model (Apple tend to only sell the most recent MacBook models brand new for example). The more RAM you have, the more tasks your processor can take on and the better your laptop will perform with more demanding work.

RAM or Random Access Memory has nothing to do with storage but is where your computer will store tasks for the processor to get to. SSDs may sometimes be smaller but contain no moving points and operate a lot faster than a standard hard drive. Be it documents, videos, photos or games, you'll need this capacity to store them and generally laptop drives will range from 128GB to 1TB. HDD (hard disc drive) and SDD (solid state drive) are to do with how much you computer can store. Apple MacBooks tend to have a bit more under the bonnet while still remaining sleek and easy to use. If you're looking at doing work like video or photo editing and want a laptop that can handle a little more it may be worth looking at a MacBook or MacBook Pro. You could even get a Chromebook which has been stripped back to the essential features to get you online as quickly as possible. That depends what you'll be using your laptop for! If you're working from home and want to keep to a budget, a simple Windows laptop should get the job done. With laptops from Dell, HP as well there's loads of choice for which laptop to buy. With everything from MacBook Pros designed to cope with video, photo and music editing to lightweight Samsung Chromebooks to work on the go, our range of refurbished laptops offer great variety at even better prices. Functionality isn't affected in the slightest, though - everything works perfectly!

Good: A few signs of wear-and-tear show that it's clearly seen a fair bit of use, but overall it's in good shape.You might notice some slight blemishes on close inspection but, by and large, the product is in great condition. Very Good: Very well looked after and, as such, close to pristine.The length of time the device was used by the previous owner - and therefore the condition - may vary, so we've put together this handy grading system so you know what to expect: If you're looking for some high tech at low prices, check out Wowcher's range of refurbished Apple iMac, MacBooks and laptops!
