This model is built around Intel’s 1.1GHz Core m3-6Y30 processor. It features a vivid 12-inch 2304 x 1440 resolution display, 8GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD. While that spec sheet may not be enough for some tasks like heavy-duty HD editing, it’s more than enough for everyday computing like streaming, Web browsing with multiple tabs, and even number crunching on Excel, assuming you’re ok with doing that on a 12-inch display.

And although this is a refurbished machine, it’s backed by the same 1-year warranty included with Apple’s new laptops.
