Whenever I see refurb items in excellent condition available in quantity, I have to ask myself why the original owners made them available so soon after purchase. Were they not performing to expectations? Did a new shiny come out that they wanted instead?

Imagine having 256 gb of storage on a laptop on 2026.

The Neo is cheaper. If all you have as a student is ~$500, that extra $379 might not be in the budget at all.

Now with all that out of the way, this isn't a bad machine at all - if it wasn't a garage sale used unit. 16gb/256gb is the base configuration. You're pretty much just buying it for the 15" size.

16gb ram + 512gb SSD was the baseline for our company from 2011-2015. It went up to 32gb after 2015. And here we are, a decade+ later....and folks are trying to blow smoke saying 8gb ram and/or 256gb storage is acceptable. "Most people don't use that much!"

Yes, they don't use that much because that's all they have to work with it! If they had more, they'd be able to get more done with their machine!

But it's worse in the Windows world. You get a keyboard that has so much flex, it moonlights as a trampoline. The trackpad feels like pushing telephone poles through mud. And screens? Nothing but the finest antique 16:9 panels....some still sell a TN 1366x768, but most are SO GENEROUS with a 1920x1080 panel. Not 16:10 1920x1200 or 2560x1600 2.5K....nah, that's asking for too much.

Unless you're Apple. Which makes that pixel density their baseline.

For a 2 year warranty this isn't bad. Although for those who can wait, it's better to wait until the 16/512 GB M4 is below 900

A new M5 with the same RAM/storage/screen is $1299. Not sure how this is originally "$1699". No sane person would pay $400 extra for previous gen processor.

I spent this much on my M2 MacBook Air and that only has 8gb/256gb and it is my go to laptop, even over my Alienware 32gb/3tb. Anytime I take a trip it's the first one I grab. The battery life, the portability and weight, it's no contest. And there's even plenty of games it can run just fine. Civ 6/7 are my go to on flights.

Not a great deal IMO. $50 more you can get factory refurbished from Apple w/1 year warranty and you know it's gone thru correctly. Factory refurbished from Apple is like new.

Cloud gets expensive REALLY fast.

External SSD -- why not just build a desktop instead? Livin' that dongle + accessory life.

I would take a 512gb neo over this any day. 256gb is laughable and you'll be battling the storage limit just to do OS updates.
