Mid 2017 Apple MacBook Pro with 2.8GHz Intel Core i7 (15.4 inch, 16GB RAM, 256GB) Space Gray (Renewed)

Despite I was hesitant to buy a refurbished MacBook Pro, adding that some buyers had a non favorable at all reviews when I was thinking to buy, I decided to try with this vendor Kanga and if any issue happens, to return it before the 90 days period.By now being the third day after "unboxing", the experience has been so pleasant, with the following highlights:1.- Speakers performs like sound bar systems, even better that some bars for TVs. I've been listening this morning a Pink Floyd concert in YouTube and i've found its flawless sound is amazing, much better than my 50 inches Smart TV.2.- It had MacOS Monterey preinstalled, and after a not so long update, I had the latest version 12.4, with all current patches.3.- It has a minor scratch on the back of the screen, and I won't see it when I put the case on the MacBook Pro, so I don't care too much of this. It looks and behave like new MacBook Pro, in a mint condition, despite it is at least 5 years old.4.- Coming from a MacBook Pro 2015, I'm getting used to the touch bar, however the learning curve has been no significant and I'm learning quickly its features. Touch Bar working fine at the moment.5.- Touch ID did follow its procedure to acquire my finger marks, so now its working fine too.6.- I believe those who mentioned bad experiences with their buys, however that is not my case until now.7.- I may think by a moment that I'm using a MacBook Pro with M1 Pro, without paying that hefty price. However when looking that the Apple support status it is out of warranty, so I'm coming back to the reality.8.- I found it required additional hardware to connect with my HDs with Thunderbolt for USB C, so having converters I did the first Time Machine backup with no issues.9.- Battery is above 90% capacity, with no cycles of use, so I understand the degradation may come because of the time and not by a previous use.I'm trying to use adding heavy workloads to the MacBook Pro in order to find any possible issue (like graphic card bugs), however at this moment the behavior is very good as expected.So I congratule Kanga to deliver this excellent device that I'm enjoying by now. However if something changes, I will update this review in the coming days, or to return it at the first failure.

I bought this seeing the price tag. Seemed like a good deal. Got the product, after about 5 hours of use it would no longer turn on. I take it to the apple store a week later, it turns on when I get there, they run a diagnostics test: battery fails testing, charging ports fail testing. Does not turn on when we attempt to restart.K, time to return it. Whats the return policy? if you do not remove the accounts from the device, they can keep up to 50% of the return. Well how am I supposed to remove the account if the product doesn't reliably turn on. Why on earth is this my problem now?Several hours on the phone with amazon later, several weeks into the process, and after several screw ups from amazon's returns team, I finally got an assurance on my refund for sending the item back.Its not enough really. Thats my time down the drain dealing with all this BS. These guys have a 3.8 rating on Amazon, that is TRASH, and it was my mistake for not heeding that. A 4.4 rating is the AVERAGE rating on amazon, these guys are way below that and rightfully so. If you want a refurbished apple notebook that meets quality standards, you need to cough up the dough and buy through Apple directly. Don't give these guys your money.

This product run smoothly and very good condition.

I bought this MacBook for simple everyday use and for work but no longer work for the place I needed it for so I use it just for my daily use. This laptop is surprisingly great with small games, I wanted to start playing games to pass the time and it runs the games as it should, maybe a little loud with the fan and battery may not last but I normally use it in clamshell mode anyway so the battery isn’t a horrible issue. I would say for around $450 it is great, I at first had a bit of issues with the space bar but after about an hour of typing and breaking it in it seems to have fixed the issue. When I first got it the battery was completely dead as expected but took around an hour to charge to a state of being able to use, the screen had no problems, it is amazing value, setting up the OS is simple and quick, the screen had no cracks, scratches, or anything wrong with it, and the laptop itself had a great overall appearance with no buffs or scratches to be seen. If I had to recommend a laptop that is affordable, works well, for school or work, or even just daily use I would recommend this one. Great job with the refurbishment!

I always have skepticism when purchasing electronics. However, being a regular amazon customer and not yet having a negative experience, I purchased with confidence and do not regret my decision. The laptop was delivered in the timing promised and worked well. I am actually typing this review using the device. I definitely recommend this seller.

I love this computer so far, first MacBook that I’ve owned. Minimal scratches on outside of laptop. Can’t talk about battery life because I’ve been in the house so far with it on the charger. But when I take it off the charger it seems just fine. Only minor issue is laptop overheating from time to time. ALSO IF YOU DONT KNOW MUCH ABOUT MACBOOKS MAKE SURE YOU BUY A TYPE C ADAPTER FOR MACBOOKS WITH DIFFERENT OUTPUTS.UPDATE: I’ve had this laptop for a couple of weeks now and the battery is horrible. It’s been on the charger for days and it won’t go past 1%. It keeps saying not charging even though the charger is plugged in and the laptops battery health is normal.I honestly would recommend everyone to sacrifice and save more money and buy the laptop brand new.EDIT 2: THIS MACBOOK BATTERY KEPT EXPANDING AND THE LAPTOP WAS OVERHEATING LIKE CRAZY. ACCORDING TO GEEK SQUAD THE BATTERY IS BAD AND HAZARDOUS AND COULD HAVE EXPLODED. SO I WILL BE RETURNING.I wasn’t expecting this to happen I was ignoring the other reviews because I really wanted to try it out. My fault.
