Wondering “are MacBook devices still worth it?” MacBook models can work out expensive, especially if buying new.

Here at musicMagpie, you can save by going refurbished! All you need to do is select the model, storage and condition - it’s that easy. 

There are plenty cheap MacBook models to choose from on the musicMagpie Store, but ultimately the best one for you depends on what you want from your MacBook.

For those seeking the most budget-friendly option, an older model with less storage capacity would be your best choice. Alternatively, if you're willing to invest a bit more for enhanced features, a newer model could be what you’re looking for.

MacBook models can come in different colours, storage sizes, screen sizes and ages, so make sure to find the right one for you and your needs. When looking at second hand MacBook models from musicMagpie, you’ll also need to consider which grade you want - our these ratings are based on the device’s cosmetic appearance, so if you want your MacBook to look as good as new, pick a Pristine MacBook.

While you’re browsing, why not take a look at our other refurbished MacBook models? We have plenty of affordable MacBook options, including refurbished MacBook Pro, refurbished MacBook Air and refurbished iMac models.
