When will the New MacBook Pro be Refurbished?
Simo Elalj First publication 8 months ago • Updated 1 hour ago
Based on previous MacBook Pro releases, we estimate that the new MacBook Pro 14″ or 16″ will be refurbished on the week of January 14, 2022.
The 14” and 16” MacBook Pro with the Apple silicon chip has been available for purchase since October 18, 2021. It takes on average 88 days to see a refurbished MacBook Pro on Apple Store from its original release.
RefurbMe has analyzed all Macbook Pro releases since 2010 and came up with a prediction model for all new upcoming products:
On average, the discount you can expect is 15% from the Apple store. So expect to see the refurb price for a refurbished 14-inch starting from $1,699 and the 16-inch from $2,125.

What is new in the latest MacBook Pro?
The new MacBook Pro 14-inch has more configurations to choose from. Allowing users to better optimize the laptop for their needs. Plus it has a choice of either of the new M1 Pro or M1 Max chips. Further in this article, we make a little comparison of the two new chips, M1 Pro vs M1 Max. For you need to decide which of the new Apple silicon chipsets will best suit your needs.
The M1 Pro offers a 10-core design, a 16-core GPU, and up to 32GB of RAM, while the M1 Max has a 32-core GPU and up to 64GB of memory with the same 10-core CPU. The original M1 chip provides an 8-core CPU and 8-core GPU, and can ‘only’ be configured with up to 32GB of RAM. But it still fares well than many windows based laptops. And it is still a worthy purchase.
M1 Pro vs M1 Max
The M1 Max and M1 Pro clearly differ in terms of peak performance. As per Apple, the M1 Max doubles some important contributors to theoretical performance. Notably the number of hardware ProRes accelerators. This is extremely important for pro video editing. But there are certain similarities between the two M1 chips. The M1 Pro vs M1 Max has up to a 10-core CPU with eight performance cores. And two efficiency cores with a 16 core Neural Engine.
Apple’s breakdown shows that the two chips share most of their basic features, but they have several differing capabilities.

At RefurbMe, our mission is to gather all the refurbished Apple deals from professional refurbishers into one place. A refurbished MacBook is a great way to save some money. With RefurbMe’s list of refurbishers, we give you a detailed idea of what you can expect from each with respect to warranty, shipping, and return policy. This undercuts the price of the original M1 Pro/Max 14” and 16” MacBook Pro. And still, you have all the important features in the original.
It should be noted that Apple itself is unlikely to sell the new MacBook Pro as refurbished. As soon as it’s released. However, some other refurbishers might. And based on our prediction model we can also conclude on many discounts that could be offered on the refurbished version. This helps you to plan your purchase in advance for the laptop.
