Apple 15in MacBook Pro, Retina, Touch Bar, 2.9GHz Intel Core i7 Quad Core, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, Space Gray, MPTT2LL/A (Renewed)

The laptop is in really good shape appearance wise. There’s one really small dent on the bottom where the keyboard part meets the screen (can barely see it and it’s not visible at all when using laptop). also all the keys and functions work correctly along with the touchscreen bar. So appearance its basically a 5/5.. but now with the sort of bad.. when u go to battery health it says “the batteries capacity is significantly reduced. to restore capacity, Please check your service options.” I charged it all the way no issue at all but it went from 100% charge to 70 in a little less than 2 hours. The battery isn’t completely cooked but a little weak. So with that being said, if I wanna keep the MacBook I’m gonna have to replace the battery if I wanna use it for long term multitasking thru the day which I will be using it for long periods. I thought about returning it but bc the appearance is really good I don’t wanna return it and get a new one with a better battery and it have a significant amount of cosmetic damage.. so what I’ve decided is I’m gonna keep it considering the good price. Gonna spend the $100-$150 and get battery replacement. That’s my honest review for you all to consider. UPDATE A FEW DAYS LATER: after using it for a few days it seems like I'm getting about 6 plus hours of heavy use straight but way longer if not continuous. I use it for crypto/social media/ videos etc. and it also seems like from 100 percent battery to 50 percent battery it now lasts longer. its a possibility it sat turned off for awhile before I purchased it idk? also I talked to a repair place and he said even with a aftermarket battery if its not apple certified it will say it needs service and won't show battery health if its not apple certified and calibrated by apple.. it could be aftermarket since its 2017 model.. so I'm gonna change the review to 5 stars when originally I gave it 4. I jumped the gun and gave it a review too quick without using it even one full charge. I've been using it all day on and off since 12 pm and its still got plenty battery left.

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.

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.

came in a bubble wrap sleeve bouincing around in a cardboardbox allowing it to bang around in container. in spite of that unit was undamaged. appeared in perfect like new appearence. have been using itn for appox 6weeks works great and I would say good value for the money

I ordered a 15" MacBook Pro, but the laptop arrived with a completely damaged battery. It wouldn’t hold any charge even after charging for almost two hours — it stayed at 1%. This was extremely disappointing, especially for such an expensive product. I had to return it immediately for a refund. It’s clear that the seller did not check the product’s condition before shipping. I strongly advise other buyers to be cautious before purchasing from this seller. The entire experience was frustrating and a waste of time. I am also sharing a video as proof of the issue.

Estaba muy feliz con este producto, funcionaba perfecto, llegó con un cargador no oficial, sin embargo no me había causado ningún problema, cumplido el año y uno o dos meses de la compra, simplemente ya no encendió, fui a un centro certificado por Apple y me comentaron que hubo un problema con la tarjeta lógica, se quemó un componente y puede haber varias razones, soy Ingeniero en Tecnologías de la información, tengo años de experiencia armando y arreglando computadoras, sé cómo cuidar un equipo, y ahora arreglarlo con poco más de un año de uso me cuesta lo mismo que comprar otro (alrededor de $10,000 pesos mexicanos) , reitero, estaba muy contento, funcionaba perfectamente hasta que tuve este problema

I was surprised with the product quality, I've been getting my work done flawlessly, also, I contacted customer service about some concerns I had because im not used to Mac, sam from customer service was very helpful and respond quickly too, 100% would recommend this refurbished product, looks new for a PC from 7 years ago

Las especificaciones anunciadas son las mismas que el producto recibido. La computadora no tiene ningún daño físico o rayón en carcasa ni daños en display. Tiempo de carga y de uso de batería satisfactorios. Tenía mis reservas por comprar reacondicionado, pero al tenerla en mi poder veo que vale la pena la compra. Excelente relación valor-precio.
