You can now purchase the M4 iMac through Apple’s Certified Refurbished store. The refurb units are up to 15% cheaper than buying a new one.
The refurbished M4 iMac arrived in Apple’s refurbished store a couple of weeks after refurb M4 MacBook Pro and Mac mini went on sale.
M4 iMac hits Apple’s refurbished store
Besides the US, you can buy refurbished M4 iMacs directly from Apple in the UK and Canada, as well as select EU countries. Depending on the configuration you want, you can save as much as $250 on your purchase.
The base model M4 iMac with an 8-core CPU retails for $1,299. You can get it for $1,099 from Apple’s refurbished store, saving $200. The 10-core variant with additional USB-C ports is listed for $1,269. That’s $230 cheaper than its $1,499 MSRP.
Typically, Apple only has a few variants of refurbished Macs in stock. However, its Certified Refurbished store in the US currently has several configurations on sale. This includes variants with a nano-texture glass, 24GB memory, and up to 2TB storage.
All refurbished iMacs will come with the same accessories as a new unit. So, a Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse, USB-C power brick, and more. They will be repackaged in a brand-new box.
You can go through Cult of Mac‘s M4 iMac review to decide whether the machine is worth buying.
Apple thoroughly inspects and cleans refurb units
As part of its refurbishment process, Apple replaces any damaged parts with a genuine replacement. All machines are also thoroughly cleaned before being repacked for sale in a white box.
Another benefit of buying from Apple’s Certified Refurbished store is that you get the same standard one-year warranty. Plus, you can extend this further through AppleCare+ coverage. This is why we recommend buying Apple Certified Refurbished products.
In case the M4 iMac variant you want is not available in Apple’s refurbished store, keep checking back every few days. The company typically restocks its store multiple times a week.
