Looking for an iMac on sale? Save $400 on this refurbished one.
TL;DR: This super powerful refurbished iMac has a 27-inch 5K display and is on sale for $1,099 in the PCMag Shop with code SAVE400, saving you $400.
Everyone heard about the new Mac Pro that’s reportedly going for $5,999, right?
Tech enthusiasts were undoubtedly stoked to give the cheese grater a test run. The average consumer, however, will probably need to stick to a cheap laptop.
Not everyone needs 1.5 terabytes and 8K video. This refurbished 27-inch iMac from late 2015 sports an amazing 5120 x 2880 retina display and 1TB Fusion Hard Drive, and using code SAVE400, you can swipe one for $1,099. Talk about a sweet graduation gift.
It’s no secret that Apple’s computers age well (I know people with 2011 MacBook Pros that are still kicking), and this Mac’s Intel Core i5 processor and 3.6 GHz are more than enough to keep up with your projects. The AMD Radeon R9 M395 graphics will be superb for apps like Lightroom, and with 67 percent more pixels than a 4K TV, movie watching will be a heavenly experience.
This Mac has four USB 3.0 ports and two Thunderbolt 2 ports.
This is also the first iMac with Apple’s upgraded Fusion Drive configuration, which is essentially a more affordable option to get faster computing speeds on Mac OS without paying for SSD. RAM can also be upgraded fairly easily.
These models are off-lease refurbished (meaning they were previously leased by a company) and have been put through a rigorous restoration process to ensure that all specs work like new and match industry standard diagnostics. That said, the 90-day warranty will get your money back if there’s an imperfection you can’t sit with. Besides, going refurbished is a great way to reduce electronic waste in landfills.
Regularly $1,499.99, use code SAVE400 to get the late 2015, 27-inch iMac for $1,099. By the way, similar refurb models at Apple are at least $1,609.
