Refurbished Apple products on sale this weekend: iPads, MacBook Pros, more

Apple has never been big on sales, but it doesn’t mean that deals aren’t lurking. This Fourth of July weekend, you can score nice discounts on refurbished MacBooks, iPads, and more.

Refurbished is generally an umbrella term for “used, but still usable.” To evaluate the details of the condition of each item in the list, check out “refurbished rating” under the description. Many have some sort of cosmetic quirk, but should run smoothly under the hood.
