Apple’s Certified Refurbished store in the US is now selling MacBook Pros with M3 Pro and M3 Max chips. Refurbished models are available in 14-inch and 16-inch displays.

Buying a refurbished unit can help you save up to $300 on the M3 Pro MacBook. On laptops with the M3 Max chip, the savings can be as high as $530.

Apple started selling M3 MacBooks in its refurbished store a couple of weeks ago. With the M3 Pro and M3 Max joining the store, you can buy a refurbished unit of Apple’s best laptop and save big. These laptops debuted in late October 2023, so they have arrived relatively quickly in Apple’s refurbished store.
