I picked up a steal through my employee discount on a refurb M1 Pro 16” 16gb/1tb for $950 after tax; it had 12 battery cycles and was perfect condition. Couldn’t be any happier.

Thanks so much for this video. I saw a great deal on an M1 Max Macbook Pro 16 three weeks ago (64gb RAM, 4TB SSD, three years of Apple Care), and I bought it. Then I started seeing stories about the M2 and M3 models, and I had some buyer's remorse. This video made me feel 100% better, so thanks, and keep up the great work.

You don’t even need the M1 Max. Get a refurbished M1 Pro 16 inch, base configuration. I bought one through a third party vender this summer on Amazon, arrived in a certified refurbished box straight from Apple — I don’t even think it had even been used before. It was essentially brand new and for only $1600! This thing is stupid powerful. I throw quite a bit at it and have yet to find anything that slows it down. I won’t be needing another laptop for a very, VERY long time!

A few months ago I was lucky enough to find the base MacBook M1 Pro 16 inch at Costco for $1500 BRAND NEW! A total steal for the kind of performance and quality I got out of this machine! And a nice change from my 2.5 year old M1 MacBook Air, albeit noticeably heavier to lug around.

I am on my 2021 M1 16 inch MacBook Pro right now watching this and it's the BEST laptop I have ever owned. My wife also has the same exact laptop. We LOVE them...Keep the great videos coming and always watching here in Michigan. Go Blue...

I had been waiting a long time for the MacBook Air 15 to come out but when i bumped its spec to 16gb 512gb it became more expensive than a refurbished base M1 Pro 16. I ended to getting the M1 Pro 16. One of my best purchases. It's an engineering marvel and an awesome deal for the price.

I bought the MBP M1 Max right after it launched. I agree, it’s a dream machine with very little if anything to fault. It run’s two external displays, chews thru large RAW files and videos files like a hot knife thru butter and never gets hot. I’m not sure I’ve ever heard a fan. Amazing laptop and yes, I would recommend.

I just sold my macbook pro 13 M2 and got a M1 PRO 16 refurbished. Best decision I ever made for a computer, editing video and photos has been AMAZING, brightness is superb, sound is amazing, battery life last a ton of time. Is bit heavy and chunkier but its worth it, SD port, HDMI, 3 USB C, magsafe. Cannot go wrong with a m1 pro refurbished. Cheap, reliable, productive,

Completely agree about the m1 MacBooks,
I just got the base model air and oh boy what a machine!!
It’s my first ever mac and I am already planning for a pro model❤

I’ve been waiting and waiting. I just got the M1 Max 16 inch 32 GB 1 TB on woot for My laptop for life

The last Macbook I felt stood the test of time and was extremely reliable was the 2015 Macbook pro, which I owned until the 2021 with the M1 Macbook pro 16 inch. This is just a beauty in all aspects and I only have the base model. Even the display brightness which I wish was brighter has Vivid, which enables that XDR brightness whenever you want. I used the 2015 for 5-6 years, so I imagine I will get that if not more with the M1 pro.

I have a 2014 15" MacBook Pro I need to replace. Not because it's dying, but because some software will no longer run on it, and Big Sur is the last OS update it can take. I've been eyeing some 16" M1/M1 Max MacBook Pros, 4TB SSD, that retailers have marked down to around $3000. I'm getting close to pulling the trigger on it, especially after watching this video. Thanks for the great job summarizing this hardware!

I literally JUST got mine yesterday 16 inch M1 Pro 32gb ram for $1899! I feel even better seeing this video!

I just grabbed MBP 16 with M1 max 64gb and 4tb for just under 3.5k in € (im in EU), which is more than 30% less for the same configuration of m2 max or original m1 max price. Crazy deal and you can still get it in US for just 2999$ I think I never ever saw such a discount for such a beast of a laptop from apple.

[ivanjensen]

Great and informative video. I just purchased the MacBook pro m1 max 16 (64gig/1TB) for almost half the price of a m3 16. CRAZY! Thanks and keep it up!

I got my M1 Max 16" MBP fully maxed out - 64gb / 8tb - for tethered photography from Apple refurbished in Dec 2022. Best production MBP. For daily day job work, it is a maxed out M1 MBA.

Got a brand new, never unboxed 2TB 32GB RAM M1 Max 16 inch on Ebay for $2, 460.99 all in, sales tax included. Listing price $2, 299.99.

Absolutely absurd deal and I couldn't be happier. A fully loaded 15 inch M2 Macbook Air costs the same amount, but with the M1 Max you get the ProMotion display which is stunning, 8GB extra unified memory, all the IO, and even more CPU and graphics power.

I have a MacBook Pro 16 M1 Pro (2021) with 16GB RAM and couldn't be happier, it's awesome.

[braaten]

Got a brand new Macbook Pro M1 Pro 16-inch standard config for 1500€ = 1300£. What a deal this Black Week.

[mikeyiscoolable]

Just got one certified refurbished from microcenter for $1350. Can't beat it.
