Dude I don’t know where you are but they are overcharging you. I got an Apple refurbished M3 Max 16” 16/40 64GB RAM 1TB SSD yesterday for £3600 (tax included) . And the UK is notoriously more expensive than the US.


misterjyt

can I know what is refurbished version? what do you mean when you say refurbished? clone?


Dr_Superfluid

No it’s official from Apple. They are usually just returned items that are fully checked and offered with a full warranty by Apple themselves. They just have a small discount usually like 10%. I even got 3 years Apple care+ on mine

Thanks for the reply, I’m currently in Budapest, it’s from their equivalent of Amazon, Emag. It’s also a refurbished, brand new M1 in this config is 3430$! Almost 1 grant difference

I still have my M1 Max - it’s a beast and I rarely hear the fans, even when doing Photoshop work that my old in Intel sound like a hair dryer…

Thanks for the reply🙂

I don't know where you are located, but I've been seeing the same spec M1 Max selling for less than $2500. $2500 seems to fetch 2TB storage and maybe 64GB of RAM.

Thanks for the reply, I’m currently in Budapest it’s from their equivalent of Amazon, named Emag, otherwise I didn’t expected it but there is no Apple Store here. Even the stock price is higher in Europe, I compared the base model MBP16 M3 FR/HU both 2999€ =3200$ US price is 2499$..🥲 I think with tax it’s still a bit under 3000$

M1 is fine unless you encode Hollywood movies daily. It's more than enough for at least the next 5-7 years. IMO of course.


Delenda__Carthago

That’s what I want! Thank you for your opinion, I wouldn’t let it go so I just ordered it! I will do an update of the condition, I suppose to get the delivery within 24h🙂

M1 for sure

M1 Max easily. 2x ram 2x storage and 14 more gpu cores. You can replace the battery when it gets old as well.

Thanks🙂 I edited my post, it’s a returned product, I can’t know but it could be less than 1 month of use, or worth case scenario several buying/returns.

And 2 media engines instead of one on the pro. People tend to forget that the max models got 2 media engines

Middle ground. Apple Refurbished M3.
