Apple Macbook Air 2017 with 1.8GHz Intel Core i5 (13-inch, 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD Storage) (QWERTY English) Silver (Renewed)

So this is my 2nd purchase! It seems to be alright I once again picked one in “excellent condition”, great physical appearance* it has one little scratch it’s no biggie, no trouble with the battery Thank God & it’s been charged for a while , light weight , great speed , keyboard and everything works great no warning for the battery like the other MacBook. Now I am very happy with this purchase before I was not !!!! First review >>> Okay sooo let me start off by saying I’ve read many reviews and searched many different companies and decided to go with this one based off price and hopefulness that I would get a good used MacBook . The first one I ordered was in perfect condition which it should’ve been because i selected one in “Excellent condition” upon turning it on and charging it that was not the case ! Charge would not last ! It jumped from 5% to 25% up to 60% then back down to 1% right as I’m looking at it . So I waited did all the trouble shooting even made an Appointment with the tech store and took it in they looked at it and let me know the battery had to be replaced and I would have to pay for it ! I knew something was wrong ! Got in touch with seller and was told the item was shipped and processed through Amazon warehouse so they had to handle it which I guess was understandable.! what I didn’t like was instead of them sending me a replacement ! I had to repurchase a new one from seller and Amazon had still not credited me back for the first order ! So im still waiting on my refund and they have the 1st laptop back already not sure why they won’t release my funds ! I would advised paying for the 2 yr protection after this happened when I ordered the 2nd time I for sure added it but I am happy and pleased with the 2nd MacBook I was sent I will update in about 2 months … update Laptop is still great i love it and battery is awesome i had to admit as of now i don't use it very often but everytime i do its great and battery

The media could not be loaded. I have no complaints! (For now) For less than $200, I’d say this computer was a good buy. Mines came as described, excellent condition, was packaged securely and nicely. I have not one scratch or dent on mine. I used ChatGPT to give me a check list of things to check for on a refurbished computer. This laptop passed all tests, the only thing I’d say is that when I checked the battery health, there is a message saying service battery, I will keep my eye out on that, but so far, no issues with the battery and it has a great battery life. This laptop did not come with iMovie, and since it’s older, I had a hard time finding an iMovie that would be compatible for download, but ChatGPT helped me with that too. The key board works perfectly, I checked every key. So for now, I recommend purchasing, but everyone will have a different experience.

Works great! My only issue is the charger, sometimes it works and other times it doesn’t. The charger also gets extremely hot to the touch, I’ve burned myself on it. This is my first apple computer and I have no complaints other than I waited to long to get one lol. The graphics are great, there’s no lag, and a charge lasts a few hours.

So far it’s been holding up GREAT! Speed is pretty great as well! You can’t even tell it’s used, I’m so glad I came across this because I can’t afford a new one at this time this is great to just begin the journey of having a MacBook for me! I have a work laptop that’s I can just tap the pad instead of actually clicking it and honestly that’s the only thing I’m still getting used too 😭😭and that it doesn’t have the type C port! But great buy definitely worth it!

10/10 worth the money ! My laptop arrived in perfect condition! It works for all my daily needs connected to my Apple ID no problems all the keyboards keys work on it. The battery life is great!

Good, everything works, a few little starches on top. Great MacBook Air.

FOR $250 this is the bargain you cannot pass up!!!!Here's the meat and potatoes of it ...The Macbook Air which i purchased has the Apple quality i have gotten to know and love over the past 20 years of being an Apple Product User as the devices became more compact over the last 15 of those 20 Years i have purchased iMacs (2006, 2009, 2 iPhones ( 4,5,6,7,10, 11Pro, 14 Pro, 16 Pro) the Macbook ( yes the white one i started buying those when they came out around 2006/2007) and the Macbook Pro ( 2008-2017) and i have had the iPod Shuffle, iPod Touch ( 2011,2012, 2013, 2014) so i know the quality that these devices posssess as i am " not new to this" i just love love love the Apple Products and alll of the diffrent computers and phones they have at first they kind of are basic but as the years go by they evolvenow onto the particular review of this product which is a 2017 13-Inch Macbook Air- it is refurbished and it was about 7 years old when i got itThe Pros are that i updated it to the MacOSx from 2021 which is i believe the last Mac OSx it can be updated to for this model and it works great - the MAcbook is a CORE i5 Model but to tell you the truth when i use a MAc Computer they are innately more faster anyways so i dont get too cuaught up in buying the fanciest most spec'd out models i usually opt for teh "mid-range" however this time my MacBook Pro from 2017 went out on me and i just needed something since i travel a lot i value portable and compact devicesPLUS I WANTED SOMETHING THAT STILL HAD THE USB 2.0/ 3.0 PORTS (non USB C) AND HAD A HEADPHONE JACK ( I THINK ITS DUMB TO HAVE A COMPUTER WITHOUT A HEADPHONE JACK) so i got this and do not regret itLET ME TELL YOU THIS IS MY FiRST MACBOOK AIR - I REMEMBER THINKING " CAN I REALLY GO FROM A MACBOOK PRO TO AN AIR- DONT THE AIR MODELS HAVE LESS LIKE SPEED AND STORAGE?" NEEDLESS TO SAY I GOT THIS AND I FELL IN LOVE- ITS LIGHTER AND THINNER - i may never go back to a MacBook Pro again who knowsNow the only con i can think of ( besides the DENTS and theres a few of them like is the fact that the computer doesnt have the latest and greatest but thats all-right with me the DECREASED BATTERY on this ( oh the other con) is not the best like i will charge it to 100% and then the comouter will shut dowjn at like 48 percent or something i will get maybe like FOUR HOURS of BATTERY LIFE on this there have been times when i have gotten six hours out of itTHE SPEEDJust to put it in persepctive than i use this computer for about five hours each day and turning itn on the time from boot up to login to being on the internet is ONE MINUTE yes exactly SIXTY SECONDS the Core i5 Processor is absolutely a beast this thing is just of the charts in terms of its amazing capability - i can watch movies and there is no lag when it comes to streaming , stream songs and just really ZOOM THROUGH EVERYTHING LIGHTNING FASTPORTABILITYTHIS PARTICULAR MACBOOK AIR IS LIGHTWEIGHT- the computer in all fairness does a slight heftiness to it however that is nothign compared to the MacBook Pro the 2017 Version i had which felt to be about 4 Pounds i dont know if it actualy was or not i know this thing feels to be ablout a pound maybe one and a half pounds anyways you can throw this beast into your backpack without it weighing you downSD CARD READERYES THIS COMPUTER ( MACBOOK AIR 2017) has a SD CARD READER which is good for a full-size SD Card- the SD Card is very handy for digital cameras - in fact i have a basic yet affordable KODAK EASYSHARE from 2011 which still works perfectly and the SD Card REader on this device makes for an excellent comapnion to that - the data in and output on here is just BLAZING FAST READ/ WRITE there's nothing like it and if the built in SD Reader doesnt work then i have several USB Card Readers which do the trickHeatthe HEAT LEVEL on this laptop is moderate with for the most part the computer doesnt overheat however during times of charging or heavy use ( running more than a applications at once) i havent felt this thing get hot and a remedy to this would be to close a couple apps and then after whcih it works fine with no further heat level issuesSOUND QUALITYthe MacBook Air 2017 COre i5 Model that i have here has interanl speakers that when i compare it to my iMac ( my 2009 which is going strong - my kids seem to like it and havent complained) then the sound quality of these internal speakers is sloightly lower- i feel like the speakers on this device are " on the bottom" whereas the iMac the speakers are on the backside closer to where the USB Ports- overall this in terms of the speakers and the quality you ghet from the speakers on this thing is 9/10DRUABILITy and overall impressionsTHE MacBook aIr is nowadays the "entry level"" Mac- really the Mac MINI is but the MacBook AIr is an entry-level laptop however it is exceeding that "entry-;level' the computer is fast, light, packable and the fact that it a 13.3 Display compared to the 11.6 Inch Models that were around during the 2014 Year then this is a wider palm rest area which makes way fro more comfortable computing especailly when typing long manuscripts, or even typing in general. The Backlit Keyboard adds that nice touch to the Apparatus and also is vbery handy at nught however it should be noted that having the Backlit Keyboard, utilizing it then you are consuming more battery so try to only use the backlit keyboard if you are in a darkened space. The Webcam on here is very nicely functional and is great for Zoom Meetings or Facetime calls with the Internal Microphone proving to be very rich and the other person can hear you very well. the charge tike for this device is between one to tow houras with the standby time being anywhere from8 Hiurs to 100 Hours just make sure before you put the computer to sleep to TURN OFF WI-FI and Bluetooth as well as closeout any applications you are not using via Activity Monitor. in addition to this as a ruke of thumb- turning down the brightness on your devices can extend battery life greatly

So I have had this laptop since June 4 of this year and I went to go use the charger today and the USB super fast charging port overheated and no longer works so now i have no way to charge my laptop
