The MacBook: History & Technical Information

The MacBook has been one of Apple’s core products since it replaced the iBook and PowerBook in 2006. Each year has seen the laptop range expand, and incorporate new high-tech features. While the MacBook itself was discontinued by Apple in 2019, the two flagship varieties – the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro are still in production.

Each version of the MacBook features the height of technology from the time of release. This technology remains advanced, and with some simple refurbishments, an older MacBook can be revitalised to full health, returning its capabilities to max power.

The specs of each MacBook vary depending on the model. Apple has made continuous edits to keyboards, ports, RAM, hard drive capacity, and display functionality over the years–  so make sure to take these variations into account when choosing your laptop. All of these elements are encompassed within the signature Apple MacBook casing, in the colour of your choice.

New vs Refurbished MacBooks

You can receive similar benefits and enjoy a laptop with the same brand while spending a lot less money if you go with a refurbished MacBook.

When you buy a brand-new MacBook from an Apple Store you might still encounter some issues, with a refurbished MacBook if there has been a problem that’s been reported, fixed, and tested again to ensure it’s in proper working order.

Not only that but by purchasing a refurbished MacBook you can help reduce e-waste as a result as well.

Differences between second-hand and refurbished MacBooks

Tech Trade’s refurbished MacBooks are sold in perfect working condition to ensure full functionality, as with brand-new MacBooks. Compared to a second-hand MacBook, a refurbished one had a complete check-up and has been thoroughly tested and cleaned before being put on sale.

In addition to this, you have a warranty included with our hard disk drives which are factory refurbished to extremely high standards. Each unit is erased, reset, and recertified following several hours of extensive testing.

MacBook Air vs MacBook Pro: Which should you choose?

Both popular models of MacBooks have different benefits that are best suited to different needs.

If you require maximum RAM and hard drive storage, a super high-resolution screen, and better speakers – the MacBook Pro is made for you. It’s a great computer for graphic designers, musicians, writers, gamers, web developers, and anyone else looking for a laptop with these greater capabilities. It was built with people using computers to create in mind.

Meanwhile, if you’re looking for a high-quality laptop on the go – the MacBook Air is the most portable option. Another benefit of the MacBook Air is the strong battery life that helps you to stay connected. They’re widely considered the best Mac option for students, and anyone who plans for lighter laptop use such as browsing, word processing, and streaming.
