By Suzana Looking For a Cheap Laptop? Try Refurbished
Laptops are becoming more and more popular in everyday life due to them being portable, while having the same capabilities as a fully blown home computer. This is the main reason why laptops are as popular as ever because they offer the same capabilities as a computer, but can be used anywhere, whether it be at work or in a café. However the downside to this is that laptops can be expensive and not everyone can afford purchasing one brand new. That is why purchasing a refurbished laptop is the best option.
Refurbished laptops are laptops that could possibly have had a problem or were just sent back to the factory because more storage space was needed for a computer shop or the laptop was unwanted by someone. No matter what the reason was for it being sent back, all laptops are put through tests to confirm their reliability and to make certain that they are at a level were they can be sold to the public. The main advantages of buying a refurbished laptop are that they are cheaper than the alternatives; whilst they are just as reliable as the alternatives, or could possibly be more reliable depending on if the alternative is the laptop being new or used. These advantages then make buying refurbished laptops the better choice than buying a laptop new or used.
Buying a used laptop may actually prove to be cheaper (in some cases), however faults could be present and it would not have been put through the same tests as a refurbished laptop to prove its efficiency and reliability because it is used.
An example of a refurbished laptop being cheaper is the Dell Inspiron Mini 910 Atom, which is being sold for £187.99 at EuroPC, yet at a very popular supermarket, the same laptop is being sold at £229, meaning that, in this case, buying a refurbished laptop would have made a saving of over £40 and a margin of just under 20%, which on an even more expensive laptop, would make the saving even larger. This shows why buying a refurbished laptop really is the best choice.
All of this shows that if you are looking for a cheap laptop, buying a refurbished laptop is the best choice because it offers more value for money and is just as, if not more, reliable than buying a new laptop.
