Apple has added a host of new products to its official Certified Refurbished Store this week. The fresh inventory includes rare M5 MacBook Pro configurations, the high-end Studio Display XDR, M5 MacBook Air models with larger storage and memory options, Apple TV 4K units, Apple Watch SE models, and an unlocked iPhone 16 Pro. For shoppers looking to save on Apple gear without leaving the official Apple ecosystem, this is one of the most interesting restock events in recent weeks.

As a refresher, Apple’s Certified Refurbished Store is a fantastic way to save up to 15 percent on Apple products while still buying directly from the company. Unlike third-party resellers, Apple’s refurbishment process includes thorough testing, genuine part replacements where needed, and a final quality inspection. Every product sold through the channel is covered by Apple’s one-year limited warranty, which gives buyers confidence that a refurbished item will behave much like a brand-new one. The store also maintains Apple’s standard 14-day returns policy, so customers have time to evaluate their purchase. Additionally, AppleCare coverage can be added to most refurbished products, offering an extended protection plan.

• Quality products at great prices
• Rigorous refurbishment process prior to sale
• Covered by Apple’s one-year limited warranty
• Covered by Apple’s 14-day returns policy
• AppleCare product can be purchased
• Engraving and gift wrap not available for refurbished products

One important thing to keep in mind is that inventory changes fast. Apple’s refurbished store is not constantly stocked; products come and go in waves. The company does not provide restock alerts, and highly desirable configurations tend to sell out within hours. Tracking these updates is one of the key ways to make sure you do not miss a rare deal. If you see a configuration that matches your needs, it is usually wise to act quickly.

What’s new on Apple’s refurb store?

New Macs

Apple has expanded the lineup of Mac configs available via its refurb store. The company started selling these models earlier this year and added more inventory this week. The standout addition is the 14-inch M5 MacBook Pro with 512GB of storage for $1,439. This is notable because Apple no longer sells this configuration in its new-product lineup; the current entry-level M5 MacBook Pro starts at $1,999 with 1TB of storage. For users who do not need a full terabyte of internal storage, this refurbished machine represents a significant saving while still delivering the core M5 experience.

• 15-inch M5 MacBook Air with 4TB storage and 24GB memory – Midnight: $2,969 (Reg. $3,499)
• 14-inch M5 MacBook Pro with 512GB storage and 16GB memory – Space Black: $1,439
• 14-inch M5 MacBook Pro with Nano-texture screen, 2TB storage, and 24GB memory – Space Black: <
