Tech Trade: Checking Refurbished Computers

Original refurbished-computer editorial with laptop, desktop and inspection checklist

Start with the exact product

Tech Trade sells refurbished MacBooks, iMacs, gaming systems and other computers. Identify the exact model, year or generation and intended software before comparing.

Compare the details

Check processor and graphics, memory, storage, screen, battery information, ports, keyboard, operating system and cosmetic grade. Refurbished condition and included charger should be explicit.

Use it appropriately

Review testing, data wiping, activation or account-lock status, warranty and returns. Install current security updates and never assume an older model supports the latest operating system or software.

Before ordering

Confirm serial/model family, specification, grade, battery disclosure, charger, delivery, warranty and return terms.
