What is a warranty on geek squad verified products ? Do they have Apple warranty or expired ?

Yeah I'd like to know about the warranty as well. This seems like a pretty good deal!

If the deal is still available by 7/30, this will qualify for Ohio tax free shopping from 7/30 to 8/10.

I've seen Best Buy give the best deals to the worst selling colors first then expand the deal on all colors within a week or two. I wonder if this will follow the same pattern.

Been looking for a 512GB version at a decent price for a while. Ordered and may return if something better pops up in the next few weeks new.

Prices keep dropping each week trying to clear stock before the Fall announcements.

M1 chip will generally work fine and 8GB of RAM is enough for most usage as long as you don't care about having 100 windows/tabs open. The problem for me is that the M1 can only handle ONE external display (more than one works in duplicate mode only)

With how old this laptop is, $500 should be the going rate for new by now. For this deal, if you can get a decent quality used one with no major issues, this is not a terrible deal. M1 8gb is still a lot better than M2 8gb

FYI - For about 50 dollars more, Best Buy is also selling the base MacBook Pro m1. It might be a good deal for some.

This MacBook came out 4 years ago, realistically it's got 2-3 years of current software updates, and then a few years of minimal security updates.

But at $500 it might be okay to get rid of it in 3 years, you could probably sell it then for $200 - so it'd cost about $100 a year.
