Apple is currently selling a refurbished 2023 Mac mini with the M2 chip, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage for just $319 on its online store in the U.S., while supplies last.
This is a remarkably good price on a Mac, even with it being refurbished. While the M2 chip is a few years old now, it still offers great performance for all but the most demanding tasks. And while 8GB of RAM can be on the lower side for some users, it is hard to complain about that too much when the price is just $319.
Keep in mind that you will need to supply your own monitor, keyboard, and mouse.
In our view, certified refurbished Macs purchased directly from Apple are usually in remarkable condition. In fact, they are typically virtually indistinguishable from brand new Macs. Apple says all refurbished Macs are inspected and tested to ensure they are free of defects, and they are put through a thorough cleaning process and repackaged.
We do not receive any commission from Apple for promoting refurbished Macs. We truly just think this is a great deal, and inventory quickly ran out the last time it was available on Apple's online store, so act fast if you are interested.
Update — March 11: It's out of stock again.
