Let's be honest, not all of us need the newest MacBook Pro with all the bells and whistles to complete our personal or professional tasks, nor is paying the highest price a reasonable option. So what about a refurbished MacBook Pro? You'd be pleased to know that this doesn't mean sacrificing the quality associated with newer models. Mac of All Trades shares a few reasons why this is a worthwhile investment, including a sleek, robust build, great graphics, and competitive speeds.

In fact, you can even save money by getting a refurbished MacBook that's been fully tested by expert technicians, making it effectively the same as a brand new computer. Case in point: this refurbished Apple MacBook Pro 13.3" is now on sale for $400, 63% off its original price of $1,099.

This refurbished model from 2011 operates with a fast 2.4GHz Intel Core i5 processor so you can swiftly browse through tabs and work on your files without worrying about any lagging issues. With 7 hours of battery life, you can stream and browse videos with speedy Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity to keep you plugged in and prepared wherever you are.

A big plus is the 500GB of storage that makes it efficient for you to store and access important files on a larger standard hard drive, whenever necessary. The 13.3" LED-backlit TFT active-matrix screen is also a considerable size to display crystal-clear graphics and videos for your family and friends or during a work presentation. As an added bonus, the price includes a black case to protect from scratches and everyday usage.

Whether you're looking to purchase a well-equipped MacBook Pro for work or leisure, this refurbished 13.3" silver Apple MacBook Pro is at an amazing price of just $400, or 63% off.
