Apple today began selling miniature Mac certified models with the M1 chip for the first time in the United States and Canada, with discounted prices of around 15 percent compared to the usual sleek new models.

For example, a refurbished Mac mini with the M1 chip, 256GB of SSD storage, and 16GB of integrated memory is available for $ 759, compared to the modern $ 899. Other custom arrangements are also available, but stock usually changes quickly on Apple’s revamped store, so those interested should work quickly to place the order.
Apple began selling 13-inch MacBook Pro and MacBook Air models with the M1 chip in select countries earlier in the week.
Apple’s revamped products are pre-owned devices that are thoroughly scanned, tested, cleaned, and in the case of the Mac mini, repackaged with the power cord in the box. In our opinion, a redesigned Mac mini is almost different from a modern model, so this represents a good opportunity for savings. However, keep in mind that third-party vendors may offer better deals over time, so be sure to keep an eye on our contracts.
Apple’s refurbished Macs are covered by a one-year limited warranty and have a 14-day return policy. AppleCare + broadcast can also be purchased.
