Refurbished MacBook Pro 15" - Premium Performance Meets Exceptional Value
The refurbished MacBook Pro 15" features a powerful 6th Generation Intel Core i7-6700HQ processor running at 2.60 GHz (turbo boost capable), 16 GB LPDDR3 RAM, a lightning-fast 512 GB NVMe SSD, and a brilliant 15.4-inch Retina display with 2880x1800 resolution, delivering professional-grade performance for creative work, business productivity, and entertainment at a fraction of the original cost. This certified refurbished laptop from Reboot IT combines Apple's renowned build quality with exceptional value, making premium technology accessible whilst reducing environmental impact through sustainable tech practices.
Important Battery Information
Please note: This MacBook Pro's battery health is currently at 63% capacity, and Apple's power status indicates battery service is required. Whilst the device functions perfectly when connected to mains power, the battery's reduced capacity means you'll experience shorter unplugged usage times than a new battery would provide. This laptop is ideal for desktop replacement use or situations where you'll primarily work near a power outlet. Battery replacement services are available through Apple or authorised service providers if you require extended portable use.
Ideal Use Cases
Perfect for graphic designers working with Adobe Creative Suite, video editors handling 4K footage, software developers running multiple IDEs, business professionals managing complex spreadsheets and presentations, content creators streaming and editing simultaneously, and students requiring reliable performance for demanding coursework. Given the battery condition, this MacBook Pro is particularly well-suited for home office setups, creative studios, or desktop replacement scenarios where consistent mains power access is available.

Understanding Cosmetic Grades
When selecting your MacBook Pro, you'll notice grade options available. Excellent Grade units exhibit minimal signs of previous use with only very light surface marks that don't affect functionality or viewing experience. Good Grade units may show more noticeable cosmetic wear such as light scratches or scuffs on the casing, but all functionality remains fully intact. Both grades undergo identical testing protocols and deliver the same exceptional performance.
macOS Monterey Benefits
Running macOS Monterey, this MacBook Pro provides a user-friendly interface with excellent security features, seamless integration with other Apple devices, and access to a vast ecosystem of professional applications. The operating system is renowned for its stability and intuitive design. Whilst macOS offers exceptional performance and fewer security vulnerabilities compared to other platforms, users transitioning from Windows may experience a brief learning curve with different keyboard shortcuts and system navigation. However, most users find the macOS environment highly productive once familiarised.
